High-level leadership needed to help Guam address challenges caused by DOD-related growth
As part of the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) round, the DoD plans to relocate over 123,000 military and DoD civilian personnel, thereby increasing the staffing at 18 bases nationwide. In addition, DoD and local officials expect thousands of dependents and DoD contractor employees to relocate to communities near the BRAC 2005 growth bases. These actions will greatly increase traffic in the surrounding communities. This report assesses and reports on the impact of BRAC-related growth on transport. systems and on the responses of fed., state, and local governments. This report determined the: (1) expected impact on transport. in communities affected by BRAC decisions; and (2) fed., state, and local response to the expected impacts.
The Navy¿s current hospital on Guam does not meet modern facility standards. Moreover, the military population on Guam will grow from 15,000 to over 39,000 due to the move of Marine Corps units from Okinawa, Japan to Guam. The Navy plans to construct a new hospital and two outpatient clinics. This report: (1) describes the Navy¿s plans for developing its military treatment facility solution to meet the expected increases in the military population on Guam; and (2) examines the extent to which the Navy is assured that its proposed military treatment facility solution on Guam will sufficiently meet the requirements for the expected increase in military population.

As a result of a 2005 Defense Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) recommendation, the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) is charged with consolidating supply, storage, and distribution functions at 13 military service depot maintenance locations to streamline operations and save money. These consolidations would generate net savings of nearly $1 billion through 2011 and about $137 million annually thereafter. This report assesses implementation issues associated with the consolidations. The objectives were to assess: (1) DLA's progress and challenges to implement these consolidation actions; and (2) the extent to which DLA's most recent cost and savings estimates related to these consolidations differ from those of the BRAC Comm. Illus.
The unprecedented growth at 26 military installations across the country due to the implementation of several concurrent DoD initiatives is expected to stress transportation needs for surrounding communities. The Defense Access Roads program, while small when compared to other transportation funding sources, provides a means for DoD to pay a share of the cost of highway improvements due to unusual and sudden DoD-generated activities. This report: (1) assessed the use of the program to mitigate transportation needs; and (2) identified additional steps that may be necessary to address unmet transportation needs. Includes recommend. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand edition of an important publication.
In 2007, the U.S. enacted a law incrementally raising the minimum wages in Amer. Samoa and the Commonwealth of the N. Mariana Islands (CNMI) until they equal the U.S. minimum wage. Amer. Samoa¿s minimum wage increased by 50¢ three times, and the CNMI¿s four times before legislation delayed the increases, providing for no increase in Amer. Samoa in 2010 or 2011 and none in the CNMI in 2011. Recent economic declines in both areas reflect the closure of one of two canneries in Amer. Samoa and the departure of the garment industry in the CNMI. This report describes, since the increases began: (1) employment and earnings; and (2) the status of key industries. Charts and tables.
