  • United States-Japan Security Consultative Committee Document United States-Japan Roadmap for Realignment Implementation May 1
    United States-Japan Security Consultative Committee Document United States-Japan Roadmap for Realignment Implementation May 1, 2006 by Secretary of State Rice Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld Minister of Foreign Affairs Aso Minister of State for Defense Nukaga Overview On October 29, 2005, the U.S.-Japan Security Consultative Committee (SCC) members approved recommendations for realignment of U.S. forces in Japan and related Japan Self-Defense Forces (SDF) in their document, “U.S.-Japan Alliance: Transformation and Realignment for the Future.” In that document, the SCC members directed their respective staffs “to finalize these specific and interrelated initiatives and develop plans, including concrete implementation schedules no later than March 2006.” This work has been completed and is reflected in this document. Finalization of Realignment Initiatives The individual realignment initiatives form a coherent package. When implemented, these realignments will ensure a life-of-the-alliance presence for U.S. forces in Japan. The construction and other costs for facility development in the implementation of these initiatives will be borne by the Government of Japan (GOJ) unless otherwise specified. The U.S. Government (USG) will bear the operational costs that arise from implementation of these initiatives. The two Governments will finance their realignment-associated costs consistent with their commitments in the October 29, 2005 SCC document to maintain deterrence and capabilities while reducing burdens on local communities. Key Implementation Details 1. Realignment on Okinawa (a) Futenma Replacement Facility (FRF) The United States and Japan will locate the FRF in a configuration that combines the Henoko-saki and adjacent water areas of Oura and Henoko Bays, including two runways aligned in a “V”-shape, each runway having a length of 1,600 meters plus two 100-meter overruns.
