Guam-- A federal study on the possible environmental impacts of the pending military buildup on Guam is seeing continued delays.
The Natural Resources Subcommittee for GovGuam's Civilian Military Task Force got an update this afternoon on the study from the Joint Guam Program Office. The program office's legal counsel says the study was the focus of high level meetings in Washington, DC, about two weeks ago and federal officials are close to issuing a draft. However, he says there are still several points they need to address before the draft is released for public review.
The subcommittee's Chairman, Tony Lamorena, says GovGuam already has a consulting firm in place to review the environmental study. And he is recommending to the governor that he ask federal authorities for more time to examine it after it is released.
