We are in the midst of recreating our site after encountering technical difficulties. Please check back for the latest updates. We anticipate the completion of the restoration effort by April 3, 2008.
Web Site Advisory April 3, 2008 Our web host will be performing routine maintenance on the MySql server that contains our data. The following message was provided by our host: MySQL Maintenance Scheduled for Tonight
As part of our ongoing efforts to improve MySQL performance, we will be adding new hardware and re-allocating the load on our MySQL servers between 12:00am and 5:00am EDT on Thursday, April 3, 2008. During this five-hour maintenance window, there may be periods of time when your database is temporarily inaccessible, making the database-driven pieces of your Web site temporarily unavailable to your visitors. (You should be able to connect to your database(s) as normal for most of this maintenance window, but you may experience intermittent connectivity issues between midnight and 5:00am EDT.) We have scheduled this maintenance for a time when traffic to most customers' sites is typically at its lowest. Still, we apologize for any inconvenience, and we expect that the work we're doing will help improve your site's performance. - 04/02/08 at 14:52 ET

Governor Will Host Workshops on Insights to the DEIS |
|
January 17, 2010
As part of Governor Felix P. Camacho’s “One Island, One Vision, One Future” initiative, the Office of the Governor will be hosting two public presentations describing the military build up Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) key actions, impacts, and mitigation measures.
The format of these workshops will provide the public an opportunity to ask questions and obtain further information about the DEIS.
The governor encourages everyone to attend. "I fully understand that we as a people stand at one of the most critical moments in our island’s history. While Guam will experience unprecedented growth over the next several years, our people must have an opportunity to participate in critical discussions that will help shape our future,” said Gov. Camacho. “We can affect the outcome by understanding how the build up will impact not only our lives, but the lives of our children, and generations to come. The Advisory Consulting Team (ACT) has summarized key components of this ongoing review and I urge the people of Guam to attend the presentations and provide effective comments.”
The workshop presentations are designed to provide an overview of key issues identified in the DEIS and to help residents better understand the implications of the military build up.
“My administration remains firmly committed to representing the interests of our people,” said Gov. Camacho. “We all share our island’s resources; what happens here affects all of us. This is yet another opportunity to gain understanding and submit comments that will require a response. I believe, working as one community, we can look forward to a better Guam.”
There will be several key areas that will be reviewed during the presentations. These include the Guam and CNMI Military Relocation, the DEIS and the Overseas Environmental Impact Statement (OEIS).
Public comment sheets will be available at the workshop for those wishing to provide written comments. All written comment sheets will be collected and submitted to JGPO as official DEIS public comments. JGPO will respond to the submitted public comments as part of the Final EIS.
The first presentation will be held on Tuesday, January 19, 2010 at the Yigo Senior Citizens Center (West Gayinero Dr., Yigo, Guam 96929) from 6pm to 8:30pm. The second of the two presentations will be held on Wednesday, January 20, 2010 at the Mangilao Senior Citizens Center (120 S. Vietnam Veteran’s Hwy, Mangilao, Guam 96913) also from 6pm to 8:30 pm.
The U.S. Navy prepared the DEIS as part of the National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA) process to identify potential environmental, social, and economic impacts associated with the relocation of military personnel to Guam.

Governor Camacho Pushes for the Inclusion of Guam in Health Care Bill |
Governor Camacho works with fellow territorial governors to adopt language to further Medicaid funding for the territories January 12, 2009 Governor Felix P. Camacho sent a joint letter with Governor of Puerto Rico Luis Fortuño and U.S Virgin Islands Governor John P. deJongh, Jr. to Speaker of the U.S. House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), Majority Leader of the U.S. Senate Harry Reid (D-NV), and White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel asking to support provisions of the House version relating to Medicaid funding for the Territories. Governor Camacho wrote, “As you and other Senate leaders work with House leaders to reconcile the House and Senate bills in the coming weeks, on behalf of the people of the Guam, Puerto Rico and the United States Virgin Islands, we respectfully request your support for the principle that “all Americans,” include the 4.4 million U.S citizens residing in the U.S Territories.” The letter prompts our Nation’s leaders to consider the House version related to Medicaid funding for the territories and the eligibility of its citizens to participate in the health insurance exchange(s). “While together these provisions still do not guarantee equal treatment with the States, they will provide an important pathway to parity in the long-term, as well as essential funding for immediately needed improvements in our underfunded health care systems,” Governor Camacho wrote. The House measure calls for $10.35 billon over nine years to expand the heavily restricted Medicaid programs in the territories. The bill also includes $4 billion for the Territories to assist the uninsured earning above the low insular Medicaid income thresholds. The House version contains provisions for Virgin Islanders, as well as for residents of American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and Puerto Rico |
