Dear Chairs Souki and Oshiro: My name is Robert Todd Payes and I strongly support Hawaii Superferry. Reasoning for my support is to help grow our local economy and making inter island more affordable to transfer people, auto, produce and goods to and from islands.

The NMFS Regional Administrator for the Pacific Islands Regional Office notified the Western Pacific Regional Fishery Management Council (Council) of this overfishing determination on May 27, 2005. In response, the Council prepared Amendment 14 to the Bottomfish Fishery Management Plan (FMP), which recommended closure of federal waters around Penguin and Middle Banks to fishing for bottomfish in order to end the overfishing.

  • Austal Usa Delivers 11Th Independence Class Littoral Combat Ship – Future Uss Kansas City (Lcs 22)
    COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT 13 FEBRUARY 2020 AUSTAL USA DELIVERS 11TH INDEPENDENCE CLASS LITTORAL COMBAT SHIP – FUTURE USS KANSAS CITY (LCS 22) Austal Limited (ASX:ASB) is pleased to announce that Austal USA has delivered its 11th Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) to the U.S. Navy at the company’s shipyard in Mobile, Alabama. The future USS Kansas City (LCS 22) is the first Independence-class LCS to be delivered by Austal USA in 2020. Austal Chief Executive Officer David Singleton said the latest LCS delivery from Austal’s USA shipyard builds upon the company’s strong record in recent years. “Austal USA’s delivery of the Independence-class LCS program continues to impress, with quality, cost and productivity improvements being achieved with each new vessel. “We have now delivered 11 of the 19 Independence-class LCS currently contracted and it’s very pleasing to see more and more of these ships deployed around the world, adding great capability to the U.S. Navy,” Mr Singleton said. Upgrades to the LCS program continue to take shape, both in production and post-delivery. Austal USA and General Dynamics Mission Systems teams recently integrated a new over-the- horizon missile system onto the USS Gabrielle Giffords (LCS 10) prior to her deployment. Gabrielle Giffords and her sister ship, USS Montgomery (LCS 8), are currently deployed and meeting U.S. Navy operational requirements in South East Asia. Five Independence-class Littoral Combat Ships (small surface combatants) are under various stages of construction at Austal USA including the future USS Oakland (LCS 24) and USS Mobile (LCS 26) that are preparing for sea trials.

  • 1 Testimony of Matthew J. Bryza Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Before the Commission on S
    Testimony of Matthew J. Bryza Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs before the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe (U.S. Helsinki Commission) September 10, 2008 “Russia, Georgia, and the Return of Power Politics” Chairman Hastings, Chairman Cardin, Members of the Committee, thank you for the opportunity to discuss with you today the situation in Georgia following Russia’s invasion and occupation of Georgian territory. I will focus my remarks on the events leading up to the conflict, including Russia’s obstructionist role in the international mediation efforts on Abkhazia and South Ossetia; Russia’s provocative actions towards Georgia; and U.S. policy towards Georgia, Russia, and Russia’s periphery in the aftermath of this conflict. My twofold goal is to counter Moscow’s false narrative, which claims that Russia’s war with Georgia began when Tbilisi attacked Tskhinvali, and to outline the Administration’s thoughts on where we go from here. I speak from the perspective of a U.S. official who has been engaged in formulation and implementation of U.S. policy on Georgia and its neighbors for the past twelve years. Throughout this period, the U.S. Government has remained committed to working with the citizens of Georgia and their elected leaders to advance democracy, prosperity, and peace. Georgia has made remarkable progress over this period from a fledgling state embroiled in multiple civil wars to a young democracy with one of the world’s fastest reforming and growing economies that is linked to global markets through industrious people, energy pipelines, and a joint airport with NATO ally, Turkey.
