Such customs were analyzed in both their past and present contexts, and are documented to provide possible insights into more effective systems of acquiring and maintain- ing a sufficient supply of freshwater on Guam. -

Consequently the eJlectiveness of the current system is being 14 negatively impacted and is losing its ability to eHiciently serve as an alternate 1 1 mode of transportation. This is evidenced by the fact that ridership has declined 2 30% in the past 4 years. 3 I Liheslaturan Guahan additionally finds that in a December 2008 study, 4 jointly commissioned by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the 5 Department of Public \Yorks (DP\V) and which formed the basis for the 2030 6 Guam Transportation MasterPlan, the following findings were made. -

Independent auditors Deloitte & Touche, LLP rendered an unmodified (clean) opinion on the financial statements. There was one finding on internal control over financial reporting and compliance pertaining to procurement, which is a repeat finding since FY 2011. The Guam Solid Waste Funds financial statements include three funds: (1) Operations Fund, (2) Capital Projects Fund, and (3) Debt Service Fund. These funds collectively ended FY 2018 with a net loss of $3.8 million (M), which is a significant decrease of $4M from the prior year’s net loss of $7.8M. Transition from Receiver to GovGuam In 2008, the United States District Court of Guam (the Court) appointed Gershman, Brickner, and Bratton (GBB) to enforce the Consent Decree1 and assume operations of GSWA from the Government of Guam (GovGuam). In FY 2018, GBB completed capital projects under the Court Order, such as: (1) repair of the Dero Road, (2) refurbishment and upgrade of the Malojloj and Agat Residential Transfer Stations, and (3) closure of the Dededo Transfer Station. In December 2018 and March 2019, GBB hired a new controller and general manager, respectively, to manage GSWA’s operations. -

Herman* Research Unit, Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, PO Box 37012, Washington, DC 20013-7012, USA Abstract National parks form an archipelago of government-run, on-site "museums," geographic sites of territorial and rhetorical nation-building. The War in the Pacific National Historical Park, which occupies seven parcels of land on the small island of Guam, celebrates the "freedom" that the U.S. brought to the region in World War II. But in fact, this landscape sits at the nexus of several contested territories. Guam was seized in the 1898 Spanish—American War—the final wave of American territorial expansion—and experienced 50 years of dictatorship under the U.S. -
