JR’s AGENDABy: John DelRosario, Jr.

It is fitting that I congratulate Dr. Larry Hocog for his efforts in opening up a clinic here to serve our people. It prides this humble scribe that one o f our MDs has decided to go into private practice in medicine.

It is my understanding that the equipment for the clinic would be arriving shortly. Once they are in place, the clinic ought to be able to begin handling patients daily. And it should be able to assist CHC in reducing the crowded conditions that w e find at Public Health and the O ut Patient Department as well.

I also understand that some of our retired doctors will be joining this health outfit which should strengthen the clinic ’scapability to handle patients as itincreases. I encourageourretirednurses to join just so that you don’t frustrate yourself with boredom at home.

It takes courage to establish a clinic o f this nature. And I admire Dr. Hocog’s courage and determina­tion in venturing into an area that makes him the first of firstamonstlocal doctors. I have had dealings with him before with regard to my little boy. I have nothing short o f confidence in his ability as a doctor. Again, congratulations Dr. Hocog and I wish you every success in building a strong and healthy repu­tation for your newly established health clinic! ***

The Saipan Rotary Club, under the abled leader­ship of President Norbert Sablan recently awarded Sister Remedio its Citizen o f the Y ear Award. The Rotary’sselectionis very timely anditcouldn’thave gone to a better person than Sister Remedio. Con­

gratulations!Indeed, the award touched m y heart in the sense

that due recognition is given Sister Remedio, a teacher o f teachers and the m other o f so many generation o f pupils who have gone either through kinder garten or cathechism classes. Once again, congratulations Sister Remedio!

The Liberation Committee also deserves our sa­lute for selecting Dr. Jose L. Chong, director o f CHC as the Grand M arshall for this year’s Liberation Day festivities. H is contributions to theNorthem Marianas Community is far greater what m y limited ability in descriptive verbs could portray.

I remember too that Dr. Chong was also awarded the Citizen o f the Year award by theRotary in the mid eighties. I admire the greatness o f his contributions, strength and enthusiasm to continue extending his services to our people in the Northern Marianas Community. Both he and Sister Remedio tops my list o f people with wisdom w ho have enriched our lives over the years.

Ican ’thelpbutnotice the paradeofletters that have found tlieir into this paper with positive support for Nick Sablan, director o f Public Works. The man is a doer and a capable bureaucratic jungle fighter in governm ent Well? I join the rest in saluting your efforts and hard work as you plow and pave the arteries o f this island so to make life easier for all our people. Congratulations!

Dear EditorWithout doubt Japan and other

Asian countries have primarily contributed to our rapid economic growth by investing tremendous amount o f money because they recognize the business opportu­nities in our island. Local residents certainly do not want to jeopardize this relationship. W hile I have nothing against multi-national companies or foreign corpora­tions, I do object to these com pa­nies trying to exploit the only re­source o f the people— LAND.

The Shimizu G olf Course proposal is a very sensitive issue especially since the government has made mistakes on previous leases with Suwaso and Kan Pa­cific. Shimizu’s proposal would not have been controversial if MPLC policies remained consis­ten t Last August31,1988, MPLC rejected a previous proposal to develop an 18 hole golf course on the same location on the basis that the area has already been desig­nated for homestead and land exhanges for which the govern­ment encroachment on pri«ate

citizens properties. The rejection o f the proposal was accepted be­cause it honors the noble idea of land being reserved for the young an future generations. W hy then didM PLCrenegeon that decision to tu rn 180 deg rees w hen Shimizu’s proposal came along?

ThepubUcexpresseditoutrage loudly during the public bearing held in October 1989 when the Shimizu lease agreement was first being considered by the Legisla­ture. At that time, the land lese price w as6cents per squaremeter and the public protested at this discounted price amoung other objections. In early 1990, MPLC asked the new Legislature to act on the Shimizu proposal. A me­dia blitz followed as Shimizu ads listed numerous benefits includ­ing 100% increase o f the land rental to 12cents per square meter. The people should note that at the recent House public hearing on July 17, the lease agreement sub­mitted to the legislature is the o rg in a l ag re em e n t w ith an am endm ent both of which do contain any o f the numerous ben­

efits including the increase in the lease price and the 25 year lease listedin the Shimizu ads. This is a disgrace and affront to the intel­ligence o f the people o f the Northern Marianas. Abraham Lincoln once sa i± “You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all o f the peqple ail of the time.

Such m agn itude o f land transaction involving two million square meters should be bidded out so that the people o f the Northern Marianas will be en­sured o f getting the best possible deal. Otherwise, the honesty and in tegrity o f our governm ent particulary our elected officials wil be questioned especially in view of the many inconsistencies o f the Shimizu proposal. The people want and deserve a clean, conscientious and honest gov­ernm ent

T he D epartm ent o f Public Safety (DPS) has expressed its disapproval to the proposed 200 hectares landleaseof the Shimizu Corporation a t the Kagman area. . Inawrittentestimonypresented

by Frank M. Camacho, acting di­rector o f the DPS during the July 17 public hearing o f the House Sub-Committee on Natural Re­sources, the DPS lias aired that the site for the correction facility granted by the MPLC was ignored in favor of the Shimizu proposal.

According to the testimony, the DPS said it “cannot supjport needs which appears to be based solely upon the enrichment o f a few selectprivate and businessentities to the exclusion o f all others.”

The documentfurther states that “we must take into consideration therightsofindividualsalongwith those o f th e co n g lo m era te desires...and look forw ard to protecting our existing tourism industry, while also committing to support a reasonable quality of life on our islands.”

In the said document, Camacho detailed the lengths the Depart­ment has gone since early 1987 to study, fund and develop the cor­rections facility upon the Kagman site which had been granted by the MPLC. The said document was signed by Je su s G. Villagomez.

The CNMI Corrections Facili-

ties will serve all the islands in the C om m o n w ealth . U n lik e a “prison” which is strictly for “the purpose o f pjunishing criminals” the “corrections facility” is for the purpose o f“humanelycontaining criminals during a process o f re­habilitation.”

Official studies o f correctional facilities,needs and funding were began in 1987. Four separate en­gineering firms specializing in corrections facilities have con­tributed their efforts to com e up with a final needs assessment and final plan for the facility, Camacho said.

Although the CNMI was denied funding for the facility by the Depaitm entof thelnteriorandthe Federal Bureau of Prisons because o f its small population as com­pared to the other applicants, the DPS continued to seek solutions. This included making formal rep­resentations before the CNM I 7 year Planning Commission and the CNMI Legislature for Capital ImprovcmentPlan, thedocument stated.

According to thedocument, the CNMI Legislature granted theCIP funding on the basis o f the needs assessments, and the designation of the Kagman site. The funding was according to the DPS 3-Phase Plan for a corrections facility.

Camacho further stated in his testimony that on September 20,

1989, a meeting was held to dis­cuss the relocation of the DPS Corrections Facility to the Marpi Plateau in order to provide for a project which was proposed by the Shimizu Corporation to the MPLC.

The meeting was attended by then acting Governor Pedro A. Tenorio, MPLC Executive Di­rector William Concepjcion and then M PLC B oard m em ber Marian Aldan-Pierce and DPS Director Gregorio M. Camacho.

The DPS Director, upon pre- sentationoftheShimizu proposal, unconditionally re jec ted the schemebecause the DPS was then finalizing the A&E portions of their project in Kagman.

After prior consultations with Leo Daly o f the A&E, the Director wrote Concepcion on S ep t 22, 1989 reconfirming his pxjsition regarding the relocation o f the facility stating that the overall plans and considerations had been custom designed for the specific Kagman area originally planned for the facility. DPS Director Camacho further stated that the relocation o f the facility is not feasible mainly because o f a great number o f costly reasons which include infrastructure consider­ations.

The testimony further stated that on Sept. 26, 1989, Acting Gov. Tenorio published a letter stating

that “no site survey or site prepa­ration on the part of the DPS” had been conducted.

The letter further suggested several locations wherein which the DPS facility, the homestead projects and the needs o f the gov- emmentwouldbesuitably located.

In conclusion, the Acting Gov­ernor informed and directed the MPLC “to act accordingly” in favor of the Shimizu proposal, as shown in the document

The DPS testimony also stated that they were never consulted or advised that there was an inten­tion to “resurrect” the Shimizu proposal.

At the time the Shimizu Corpo­ration was “orchestrating public and media blitz at the proposed site,” the DPS Director issued to the media and the concerned pub­lic that no consultations were made to” any party involved that stood to gain from their project,” the document stated.

The document stated that the DPS has attempted to make a compromise with the Shimizu representatives by proposing an alternate location lying at the far­thest comer of the proposed project for the corrections facility.

The provisions, as stated in the document, included the funding of costs of modifications to the design, replacement o f existing infrastructure and usable building

and required fencing.The provisions also include

modifications to provide water pumping since the original site provided a natural elevation, for water flow, W ork Release Pro­gram considerations and other costs related to the relocation.

As o f the July 17 public hear­ing, the DPS has “other than through verbal innuendoes and media propaganda” has not yet received any form o f actual compromise, thedocumentstated.

Acting DPS Director Camacho also stated in the testimony that the Shimizu proposal does not reflect any assistance to law en­forcement or to fire protection.

Camacho further stated that“the officials o f Shimizu does not mention the opposite side o f the coin, mainly to deny the Com ­monwealth the power and the water revenues which could now be served by the G overnm ent

In conclusion, Camacho said that the Director is in full supjport o f local development which is based up»n the needs and best interests o f the pjeople o f the Commonwealth which the de­partment is charged with provid­ing. “Such needs and interests include providing propjer facili­ties to house those who break the laws promulgated by the legisla­tive body,” Camacho said.

PSS submits budget to Senate CommitteeP S S - T h e P u b lic S choo l System presented its 1990-91 budget o f $30 m illion to the S e n a te F is c a l A f f a i r s Com m ittee chaired by Senator P a u l M anglona la s t w eek according to PSS press release.T hat $30 m illion figure was

no t the ir original request, the press release notes, however. C om m issioner R echebei said "W e o rig in a lly ask ed the G o v e rn o r 's P la n n in g and B udget Office for $36 million, b u t they asked us to trim that figure to $22 million, she said, "W e tried, but ju st couldn't, in good faith as educators, cut the figure by the $14 million they w an ted , th e C om m issioner said . She added, PSS did,

however, reduce the figure by $6 m illion. The 22 m illion PBO is proposing is actually $2 m illion less than the PSS requested for last years budget

"PSS cou ld provide quality ed u ca tio n , though n o t th e quality w e w ould prefer, if we are funded a t the level w e requested", stated Rechebei. Board o f Education Chairman

Juan L. Babauta, who attended th e f i r s t d ay s h e a r in g , c o m m u n ic a te d to th e c o m m itte e th a t " i t is undesrstandable that the budget for the PSS, the largest single ag en cy in the C N M I, is re la tive ly h igher than m ost a g e n c ie s . I t is a lso understandable that the increase

in the budget from previous years is a reflection o f major problem s and activities that are included, such as implemention o f k in d e rg a rte n , com puter literacy,vocational education, social studues curriculum, 12th grade in Tinian, etc. in all the schools.Rechebei concurred by stating

"C ertain new o r developing sch o o l p ro g ram s w ill be eliminated if our budget request is not approved."T he largest line item in the

budget request is for teacher salaries. These increases are n e e d e d to m ain ta in CNM I teacher salaries a t a respectable level in order to attract quality teachers to educate our children.

N orthern M arianas C ollege has been the recipient o f a very generous g if t from Saipan C able Television: A com plete h a lf-in ch v ideotape ed iting system . The unit is several years old but it is still a usable an d v a lu a b le p ie c e o f equipm ent, according to press release from college.Ernie G alito, Acting-General

M anager presented the g ift to C ollege P resident A gnes M. M cPheters last Tuesday, in a small cerem ony at the campus. Galito says the editing machine is worth between $3,500 and $4,000. It is capable of doing w hat is know as "hard" edits; basic picture-to-picture edits. It uses half-inch VHS tapes,

ju s t like w hat's used on hom e recorders.

G alito says the press release notes there are a num ber o f reasons for the gift. F irst of a ll, the s ta tio n is s low ly phasing out half-inch machines in favor o f the newer, faster form at o f 8-m ilim erter editing. A lso, he'd like to see m ore local in te rest in the m edia... m ore lo ca l rep o rte rs and anchors. The best way to do that is through the schools and G alito say s he hopes th is editing system will help foster in terest in th is visual part of jou rna lism . He hin ted the co llege m igh t be receiv ing more such gifts in the future.

The U SG S experts have su c c e ss fu lly lo c a te d new sou rces o f w ate r fo r the n e ig h b o rin g D an d a n an d Capitol H ill areas that are o f excellent quality.

A lthough the C U C has spent many months drilling for fresh w ater in C halan K iya, none w as found , G uerre ro admitted in his letter.

Last m onth, C ong. T orres wrote governor Lorenzo Deleon Guerrero, offering a portion o f his land in K anat T ab la for potable w ater d rilling since Chalan K iya residen ts have salty if no water at all.

Consequently, Cong. Jesus T .

C ong.

"S ince there is su ffic ien t fund for the project, I strongly recommend

that you w ork w ith M r. Sablan to use som e o f the money to construct a road to R ep . T o rres ' p ro p erty and conduct the exploratory water project,” Cong. Attao wrote.

M c k en z ie sa id th a t the G allery aim s to provide the com m unity and the artists a centrally located site in which to view, display and purchase artworks.

A ccording to M ckenzie, this p ro jec t is d ifferent from the past ones done by the CCAC since before, art show s were m ounted a t banks, hotels and other establishm ents for the duration o f a m onth or so. However, with the opening of the Gallery, artists are assured th a t th e ir w orks w ou ld be exhibited on an on-going basis.

The Gallery also provides the local artists to have easy access to the com m unity since they w ould be rep resn ted in the gallery, Mckenzie said.

The local artists w ho have exhibited their artworks belong to a new associa tion called ARTS w ho have decided to pool their resources and com e up with the exhibit.

M ckenzie said that a rotation basis on artw orks that are not sold for a span o f tim e would be applied. However, purchased artworks would immediately be replaced with another one either made by the sam e artist or by another one.

M ckenzie also stressed that the exhibit is open to anybody w ho w an ts to d isp lay an artw ork and that the CCAC will facilitate the arrangements.

Participating artists can be co n tac ted th rough C h ris tie Jav ier o f the M TC. A lis t containing contact information for the artis ts curren tly on display is also provided for at the MTC.

M ckenzie said th a t m ost ofthe artists are available to be co m m is io n e d to p ro d u c e custom w ork. M any o f the p a in te r s m ay a l s o b e com misioned to paint murals.

MPLC first response to Shimizu’s * 8 9 proposalA ctio n on th e in it ia l

p ro p o sa l o f the S him izu Corporation to construct two- 18 hole golf courses and lease 200 hectares of public land in Kagman was deferred by the M a ria n a s P u b lic L a n d Corporation (M PLC) during the Board meeting held from April 26 to May 2, 1989.

In a letter addressed to Mr. Takashi Taguchi, M anager of th e P ro je c t P ro m o tio n D epartm ent o f the Shim izu C orporation, dated May 23, 1989, W illiam C oncepcion, E xecu tive D irec to r o f the MPLC inform ed Taguchi that the pre-app lica tion for the developm ent for the Laulau

Kagm an G olf Course project was deferred for action mainly because of two m ajor reasons cited.

T he reasons given by the MPLC was that the proposed s ite fo r the g o lf co u rse development overlaps with part o f the Kagman area designated by the Board for developm ent o f the L aulau Bay V iew Village Homestead consisting o f 500 units and the DPS T ra in in g and C o rrec tio n a l Facility which would occupy 40 hectares.

Another reason given by the MPLC was the adoption o f a m oratorium by the Board on further leasing of public land

T h e le t te r s ta te d th a t a lthough the C o rp o ra tio n reco g n izes the s ig n ific an t economic impact the Shimizu- L au lau B ay D eve lopm en t would give to the CNM I as a m a jo r to u r is t d e s tin a tio n , dialogues between the MPLC an d S h im izu sh o u ld be continued to smooth out the

plans for the project.The letter further stated that

the underly ing basis o f the dialogue is to com e up with a com prom ise between Shimizu and the M PLC to m utually assist each other in a "Public Benefit Trade Off."

T he "Public Benefit Trade- O ff" w hich is m eant "the w illingness o f a developer to invest substantial am ount o f m oney th a t w ill d irec tly p rov ide or generate public goods and services in return for the opportunity to develop the public resources for private use,” the letter states.

public to forego certain public resou rces in return fo r the opportunity to use and enjoy p u b lic goods and se rv ices w hich otherw ise would not be ava ilab le due to the lim ited f in an c ia l re so u rce s o f the g o v e r n m e n t a n d o th e r institutional constraints."

The letter stipulated that the trade-off could be attained "if an equilibrium between what the general public is foregoing in return for w hat will the public be receiving in public goods and serv ices ." Sh im izu has b e e n g iv e n th e "g o o d judgem ent" to determ ine the benefit trade-off since there is la c k o f a m e th o d fo r q u a n tify in g in m easu rab le te rm s the im pact o f public goods and services to the lives o f the people."

C oncepcion , in his le tter, sta ted that the concep t o f "Public Benefit Trade-O ff' is to find an alternative which the C o rp o ra tio n can se rio u s ly consider if it is to fulfill its mandate under the Constitution and Public Law 1-12.

T h e T ra d e -O ff is an alternative method explored by the M PLC to fund m uch needed on-site infrastructure im p ro v e m e n ts in v a rio u s village hom esteads since the CNM I Governm ent could only provide limited funding for the said homesteads.

Concepcion further stated in his le tter that it is his belief that the proposed Public Trade- O ffs approached for funding planning and on-site homestead will "not elim inate but will significantly reduce frustrations and anger among our village homestead applicants and at the sam e token will gam er public acceptance for the proposed leasing o f public land for still another golf course project."

It is further stated in the letter that "the developer will becom e partner in the Socio- Econom ic developm ent of the island."

Concepcion has also listed several pre-conditions for the Shimizu Corporation to follow for re-considcrations.

Included in the pre-conditions is the full a g re em e n t o f Shimizu to "undertake the cost o f planning, engineering design and construction o f all on-site im provem ents ." U nder this condition falls water and power d is trib u tio n sy stem , sew er collection and drainage system, and paved streets and sidewalks for the proposed 500 units of the Laulau Bayview V illage Homestead.

The cost for undertaking the c o n s tru c t io n o f o n - s i te im p ro v em en ts w ill n o t be deducted from the rental for the p u b lic land p a rc e ls . I ’he app lican t m ust still agree to pay "fair market” rental for the go lf course lease.Continues on page 21

H o u s e le g a l c o u n s e l a i r s o p in io n o f S h im iz u p r o p o s a iA recom m endation for the

amendment or rescindment and renegotiation o f the lease agree­m ent for the proposed 200 hect­ares land lease by the Shimizu Corporation was suggested by M aya B. Kara, H ouse Legal Counsel to the House Committee on Natural Resources.

In a Memorandum addressed to Rep. Juan S. Reyes, Chairman o f the Sub-Committee on Natural Resources dated July 18, K ara p ro p o sed th a t the le a se b e ammended, rescinded or renego­tiated by the Legislature in coop­eration with the MPLC, so that the “terms reflect the understand­ing andagreementofbothpanies.”

Kara, in thememorandum, said that the conclusions she arrived at were based on written documents and testimonies of the witnesses a t the July 17 public hearing.

She further stated that ceratin conclusions which she arrived at, could aid the committee in its consideration o f the Shimizu pro­posal.

Based on the Memorandum, Kara said that in her legal opin­ion, the constitutional provisions clearly defines the role both the Legislature and the MPLC play in the distribution o f public lands.

Kara said that the role o f the MPLC is “to make the disposition which includes setting the terms and conditions, requirements and procedures tha t an applicant seeking to lease public lands would have to meet.”

The Constitution stipulates in Article XI, Section 2 that “the management and disposition of publiclands except those provided forby section2(submerged lands) shall be the responsibility o f the MPLC.”

The broad authority to manage and dispose o f public lands is limited by the Constitution when the disposition is o f more than five hectares o f public land for a commercial purpose, the docu­ment stated.

The role of the legislature, Kara pointed out, was “to approve or disapprove the lease entered into by the MPLC and the potential lessee.”

A “condition precedent” is the constitutionallyrcquired approval of the legislature which, in plain language, means that the contrac­tual agreement between MPLC and the lessee is not enforceable or binding until or unless the legislature approves the lease, Kara said.

As in Article XI, Section 5 (d) o f the CNM I Constitution, “the corporation shall not transfer an interest in more than 5 hectares of public land for use for commer­cial purposes without the approval ofthe legislature inajointsession.”

Kara stressed that this section provides a check by the legisla­ture on the practically absolute power o f the MPLC to dispose of publiclands.

In discussingtheShimizu lease, Karapoin ted out that the amended “Option to Extend" which is con-

tained in the four page amend­ment submitted by Shimizu was inspired by the recommendation o f the Committee on Natural Re­sources.

The. amended “Option to Ex­tend” is “a way o f backing off from Shimizu’s initial position, Kara said.

Kara further stated that “ the point is moot since during the public hearing, both Shimizu’s

rep rese n ta tiv e , M r. T akash i Taguchi and Ben Salas agreed to delete Article 4 , in its entirety from the lease agreem ent”

T heO ctoberl5 ,1989lease and the January 11,1990amendment are the only documents properly submitted to the legislature pend- ingapproval, the document stated.

It was further stated that “all public benefits which have ap­peared in various Shimizu public

relations publications, and which were incorporated into many of the testimonies in support o f theproject, are notapaxtof any legally binding agreement.”

Kara went on to say that it is her opinion that in order to safeguard the best interest o f the people of the CNM I, the additional public benefits must be incorporated in an amended lease between the MPLC and the Shimizu since

“until and unless the additional benefits are incorporated into the term sofabinding agreement, they are totally without any legal force or effect.”

Kara stressed that “for the leg­islature to, in effect, renegotiate the lease, undercuts the authority o f the M PLC to manage and dis­pose o f the public lands.”

Such a procedure also puts the Continues on page 21

In the m em orandum , Kara sug­gested that add itonal benefits Shim izu has proposed be inte­grated in to any binding docum ent

Among the things K ara m en­tioned include the increase o f the le a se fees from $ 1 2 0 ,0 0 0 to $240,000 for the first three (5) year period, local profit sharing - 10% o f m anagem em t company profits to the PSS, 10% o f m an­agem ent com pany profits to the Retirem ent fund and 5% o f pre­ferred stock fdr local investors through open public offer. In this p ro p o sa l, K ara sa id tha t the Shimizu needs to define “m an­agem ent com pany profits.”

O ther im portant details which K ara sugguest to be included in thebinding agreem ent include the em ploym entprogram s for special workers such as the elderly, d is­abled students, housewives etc., the allotm ent for the wildlife and forestry enhancem ent, for the Kagman W atershed, the paving o f the roads in the Kagman area, CUC access to project water res­ervo irs and other infrastructure on the area.

K ara sugeests that the com m it­tee “ further exam ine the proposed benefits carefully and determine which are essential to the lease agreem ent” From thereon, MPLC can then be so advised.

In conclusion, K ara recognizes the w ork done by the Sixth Legis­lature and recom m ends that the present L egislature u tilize the evaluation m ade by the past body since even though the Com mittee R e p o rt w as n e v e r fo rm a lly adopted by the House, it provides in val uableguidance to this present consideration.

Kara further staled that any ac­tion by the Legislature on the lease as now constituted is premature. Until the tim e the legislature and the M PLC am end, rescind and

Board amends po licy and p rocedures

P SS -B oard m em ber A nicia Tom okane asked to am end the policy to ban the sale o f junk food on th e school cam pus. She felt th a t 'th e high sugar con ten t o f the so ft d rinks, donu ts, e tc ., tha t are sold during fundraising activ ities restricts student learning and in te rfe re s w ith the ir lunch meal. Board Chairman Juan L. B abauta countered by saying th a t w ith o u t fu n d ra is in g , schools w ould not be able to buy com pu ters, o r support their libraries for their students, etc. He m entioned that the G o v e rn o r 's P la n n in g and Budget Office already wants the PSS to drastically reduce it’s F Y 91 b u d g e t r e q u e s t . A lthough Babauta agreed that junk food is not desirab le , money raised for the schools is im p o rtan t. B ab au ta a lsopraised the Food Service for its efforts to properly feed the students. The board voted not to amend.Student/teacher ratio was also

d iscussed and adopted. F or k indergarten , the m axim um num ber o f students a teacher should have is 15, w hile the minimum is 10. In grades 1-3 the maxim um is 20:1, and the minimum is 15:1. For grades 4-6 its 25:1 and 20:1, and for grades 7-12 its 30:1 maximum. C om m issioner o f Education E lizabeth R echebei said the average last school year was about 17:1. Board members agreed that som e type of bonus should be given to teachers w ho have m ore than the maximum num ber o f students in their classrooms.

M em ber Tom okane m ade a motion that the Public School System increase its grading level by 3 points across the board in order to raise standards or expectations from students. The motion was passed.

O ther po licy revisions were tabled for further research to be done. They included graduation requirem ents and chartering o f non-public schools.

U.S.Army begins removal of chemical weapons from Ultest GermanyCLAUSEN (AP)- A convoy

o f trucks today began removing a vast cache o f deadly nerve gas that was secretly stored by the U nited States ju s t outside this small W est German town.

T he convoy took aw ay the first batch of 100,000 gas-filled artillery shells stored a t a U.S. m ilitary site at Clausen, which is near K aiserslauten in the southwest part o f the country. T he lethal cargo, destined for

destruction on a Pacific atoll, is being removed under a 1986 U.S. -W est German agreement at a cost o f $83.1 million. Hundred of crack paramilitary

W est G erm an police troops lined the convoy rou te and stood guard on overpasses as the long line o f 80 trucks began shuttling the shells at about 8 a.m.Vans carrying police with riot

gear accompanied the convoy. W est German authorities said som eone phoned in a bomb threat against the convoy but th a t the f i r s t sh ip m e n t proceeded without incident.

The firs trucks arrived at M iesau, about 3 0 miles away, 21/2 hours later. A t M iesau, the containers are to be loaded onto special trains that will take them to N ordenham , on the North Sea, where they will be placed aboard U .S. Navy ships for transport to Johnston A toll.The weapons will be destroyed

•in a specially built incinerator on the U.S. A toll about 800 miles southwest o f Hawaii.

O nly about 20 o f the 80 tru ck s tha t left C lausen actually carried the chem ical w eapons sealed in a ir-tigh t containers, said U .S. Arm y spokesman Jim Boyle. He said t h e r e s t c o n t a i n e d d e c o n ta m in a t io n c re w s , firefighters, W est German and U .S . s o ld i e r s , p o l ic e m onitoring teams and medical staff.The chemical team is equipped to contain any incident, " he said. The operation is going as planned. Only four protesters w ere spotted . They draped

For all three days, the time is from 9:00 to 10:30 and 1:00 to 2:30.

posters, including one that said "Evil is sim ply being shifted from here to the Pacific," over a stone w all nex t a church along the convoy rou te in Clausen.They said they were protesting

the U.S. decision to destroy the weapons on the atoll and said it would jeopardize the populace there."This solution is the w orst o f

a ll w orlds," said p ro teste r U rsula Siegmayer. She said she had participated in earlier chem ical w eapons p ro tests, "But we're not proud o f our su c c e s s . T h is is a catastrophe."The W est German government

is paying $31.2 million o f the rem oval costs; the U.S. cost is $52 m illion. Environm ental

groups, which four years had campaigned for the removal o f the chem ical w eapons, had sought to block the transport, ch a rg in g th a t the sa fe ty measures were inadequate.

The environm ental G reens party , one o f the strongest o p p o n e n ts o f c h e m ic a l weapons, w ent to court to try to block the rem oval, But an a d m in is t ra t iv e c o u r t in Cologne ruled Friday there was no ev idence to p ro v e the Greens' contention that faulty data had been used to calculate the risk o f transportation.

S everal g roups o f p rivate citizens concerned about the safety of the transport had also unsuccessfully tried to block the operation through court

action."The shells are safe to handle

and tran sp o rt due to the ir p a c k e d in v a p o r - p ro o f secondary steel containers and m ilitary vans fo r transport,” the U .S . A rm y sa id in a s ta te m en t a n n o u n c in g the beginning o f the operation.

The approxim ately 100,000 artillery shells in 6-inch and 8- inch sizes are loaded with liquid nerve agen ts, acco rd ing to Boyle.

They w ere brought to Clausen between 1958 and 1968, where they have remained since.

Clausen is the only site in W est Germany where chemical weapons are stored. Boyle said the Army has done everything to m ake sure the operation

goes ahead without a hitch:"There is safety measure upon

sa fe ty m easu re re d u n d a n t throughout the operation," he said.

O ne convoy w ill take the weapons daily from Clausen to M iesau over the next 30 days.

T he ra il transport to the North Sea port will take about a week and will be conduced a t night.

W e st G erm an C h an ce llo r H e lm u t K ohl an d fo rm e r President Ronald Reagan agreed in 1986 to remove the chem ical w eap o n s by 1992. T h e tim etab le w as advanced by President Bush.

It w as only in· M arch th a t authorities acknow ledged that the chem ical w eapons w ere stored in Clausen.

G. Amoy, Palacios was namedby Iriarte as the other INO Officer who would assist the courier - identified as a cooperating wit­ness (CW>in the safe passage of the substance to the NMI.

Court records reveal that a meeting took place on May 31 in Susupe between Iriarte and the CW which was monitored by Amoy. In the said meeting, Iriarte informed the CW of the utilization of personnel at the immigration inspection section at the airport as part of the smuggling activity.

The courier was also advised that he would be informed as to which immigration inspection official to approach for clearance into the NMI. The CW would then pass off the “shabu” to the

said official who will then cany the shabu through the port o f en­try, the affidavit shows.

On June5,another meeting was held in Susupe which was con- sensually monitored by Amoy. Court documents indicate that the CW was informed that two im­migration officers would be as­sisting in the passing o f the sub­stance. Iriarte related the names o f “Eric” and “Glen”.

The affidavit shows that a meeting took place on June 6 in Susupe between-Iriarte and the CW, which Amoy monitored In the meeting, Iriarte informed the CW that since he was assigned to the office and not at the airport as scheduledacertain “Glen” would be assisting the CW.

Iriarte also informed the CW that Glen needs to meet him to be able to recognize him upon his entry to the NMI, the affidavit shows.

Amoy said in his re p o t that a meeting transpired on June 22 in Susupe between Iriarte, Palacios and the CW. Instructions were given to the CW on the procedure to be utilized in smuggling the drug. .

During the meeting, Iriarte and Palacios provided a contact phone number to ensure that a contact would be established between the CW and the two INO officers and that they were aware of the date and arrival o f the courier on the island court records show.

The affidavit shows that the

knowledge of the 2 INO Officers on the date and time o f the C W ’s arrival would ensure the presence o f either Iriarte or Palacios a t the immigration inspection station.

Amoy reported that in another meeting which was monitored by the FBI, the CW informed the 2 INO Officers that he would be providing 50 grams o f “shabu” from the Philippines.

A discussion as to how the shabu was to be distributed once it arrives in Saipan and the profits that could be made also ensued between IriarteandPalacios, court documents show.

Iriarte, who has been employed with the Immigration for four years, was arrested on July 11 at the parking lotof the Saipan Inter­

national Airport carrying meth- amphetamine.

A fter a prelim inary hearing conducted on July 23, an affidavit in support o f release in personal recognizance filed by Iriarte was denied by the U.S. District C ourt

Iriarte was ordered tobe detained at the U.S. Marshalls Office since noU.S.detention facility is located on the island.

Iriarte is scheduled to appear on August 3 a t 9:A.M. a t the U.S. District Court for the continuance o f the preliminary examination.

If convicted, the 2 INO Officers would face up to 40 years impris­onm ent with fines o f $ 2 million each.

said. “In addition” Babauta con­tinued, “ I have also verified the fact that the records o f contribu­tors and beneficiariesoftheformer NM I Social Security System, who are now legally contributors and beneficiaries of the U.S. Social Security System, have not been placed into SSA’s master com­puter system” “The effect o f this is that no U.S. Social Security Office in Guam, Hawaii o r the United States mainland can rec­ognize our people who have be­com e U.S. citizens and SSA members”, Babauta remarked.

“I feel that the U.S. Social Se­curity administrationhashadmore than enough time to properly in­tegrate our people into its master system. I believe that the covenant clearly requires that our disabled beneficiaries be given “Medicare” benefits, that our beneficiaries in Guam, Hawaii and the Mainland be clearly identified in SSA’s national computer system as SSA beneficiaries and be served by any Social Security Office in the country, and, that our contribu­tors should not be exposed to a very substantial risk o f losing his right to U.S. Social Security ben­efits,” Babauta said.

“I intend to present these issues to SSA and request that they take immediate steps to comply with the applicable covenantpro visions intended to protect the funda­mental and valuable rights our people have been guaranteed in the U.S. Social Security System” Babauta concluded.

Navy tug w ith high tech in search fo r je t doorH O N O L U L U (A P )- An electronic grid laid down by a N avy tug will gu ide a high tech p robe ;in the P acific Ocean search for a cargo door that blew off a United Airlines jetliner, killing nine people.

The N ational T ransportation Safely B oard com pleted its investigation without the cargo door, but asked the Navy to find it because the door could p ro v id e ev id en ce to help improve aircardft safety.

T h e 2 2 6 fo o t tu g Narrangansett today was to lay do w n th e la s t o f e ig h t transponders, w hich transm it e lec trica l s ig n a ls to ch a rt movement so the video camera- eq u ip p ed su b m ers ib le , the centerpiece of the Navy's Orion search system.

The transponders will hang about 150 feet above the ocean floor around the perm iter o f the 24-square- m ile search area som e 100 miles southw est of Honolulu, said L l Cmdr. Bob Anderson, spokesm an for the Pacific FleeL

The door is believed to be lying in about 15,000 feet of water. The submersible, called a "towfish," is expected to be low ered in to the ocean on Wednesday, Anderson said.If the door is spotted, anolher

device will be used to recover it later.

O nce the tug reached the search area M onday, "they anticipated a day and onc-half setting up and getting ready. W e expect they'll be ready to p u t it in the w ater by W ednesday," said Ltd. Cmdr. Sandy Stairs, another Pacific Fleet spokesman.

F lig h t 811 c a rrie d 355 p a s se n g e rs w hen it le f t Honolulu International Airport for New Zealand on Feb. 24, 1989.Shortly after takeoff, a cargo

door opened at 22, 000 feet, tearing aw ay a section o f fu se lag e and cau sin g the B oeing 747 to decom press. N ine people w ere sw ept to their deaths and five others w ere seriously injured. The crew managed to return the je t to Honolulu. The safety board decided faulty design o f the door's locking m echanism probably caused a cockpit panel ligh t to falsely indicate the door was locked.

The federal agency blamed United, the Boeing Co. and the F e d e r a l A v i a t i o n A dm inistration for failure to co rrec t p rob lem s w ith the locking mechanism.

The Honorable Juan S. ReyesSubcommittee ChairmanHouse Committee on Natural ResourcesSeventh Northern Marianas Commonwealth LegislatureSaipan, MP 96950

Dear Mr. Chairman:

Thank you for extending the opportunity to the Saipan Chamber of Commerce to submit comments on the proposed Shimizu Golf Course project at Kagman and adjacent areas. The Chamber welcomes and encourages developmental projects and related laws and regulations with recognition on the importance of cultural preservation and environmental impact. In adhering to this principle, the Board of Directors took a poll of each member for an accurate survey of the Membership's position which is incorporated into our testimony today.

Out of the 165 members polled, 36% responded. Of those responded, 53% voted "yes" (in favor of the proposal), 20% voted "no", and 27% undecided. Comments made by proponents of the project Included additional revenueand Infrastructure for Kagman residents and development of reservoir will benefit all In the long run. Opponents comments included too much uncontrolled and unplanned development, favored moratorium on such project, the need for an updated appraisal, possibility of negative environmental Impact, and unfair treatment by MPLC to turn down one Golf Course proposal and accept another.

Again, thank you Mr. Chairman and members of this body for inviting the Saipan Chamber of Commerce to present its membership's views on Shimizu proposal.

Respectfully Yours,

Maggie George President

people for public facilities, home­steads, and land exchanges must be taken into accountFIRST. The com prehensive land use plan which MPLC has been working on for the past two years has not been released yet although I have heard that it was completed last year. Another important factor that MPLC neglects to realize is that they may be setting a prece­dence in appraising the subject area at 12 cents per square meter. This will haveadefiniteimpactas government works out the land exchange because of the dollar- to-dollar based formula.

I also question the motives of Shimizu and its consultants in designating where their additional money contributions will go. Shimizu should- know better that only our Legislature has the ap-

propriating authority to allocate fund to departments as it sees fit. A lso, the term inology “land banking” used by^the consultants is very misleading. When you compare this with the real bank­ing situtalion— when one depos­its money in a TCD or Treasury note, that money is never com­mitted for more than five years. Once can withdraw his/her money anytime and not have to wait 25 years. That is not so with this “land banking” concept. Also let us not kid ourselves. No one can predict what would happen after the expiration o f the 25 year land alienation clause in the Covenant in which only those persons of Northern Marianas descent can own land. This protection will only be in effect for 13 more years. What are our leaders doing to ensure that this provision will be in effect forever?

The Legislature should con­sider the following points:

1-The necessity o f reserving the subject land for homesteads for the future generations before the land alienation clause expires, or,

2-Rejectthe presentagreement now before the Legislature and mandate that MPLC re-appraise the land by not less that two inde­pendent appraisers to guide the elected officials in deciding on the lease price.or,

3 -T he C N M I G overnm ent should look into the legality of creating a joint venture between the government and Shimizu on a 50/50 basis with the eventuality thatthegovemmentequity be sold to private local citizens.

I hope that careful consider­ation be given to this proposed project. The people have spoken and they will continue to speak. W hileldonotcondonetheactions o f those who lost their tempers at the recent hearing, I understand why they felt that way. The vot­ing public expects its elected of-

/s/JOETEN______________ _

Dear Editor

M ay I request fra· your kind indulgence to publish my letter in your widely read newspaper.

Just recently, a press release was issued for a plan that woik & entry permits will b e merged as one and to be jointly signed by both the Labnor C hief and the Immigration Chief respectively, a lleg e d ly to s tre a m lin e the operados.

In my humble opinion, this issue is moot because it is the responsibility of the Labor Divi­sion to determine whether to ap­prove o r disapprove the working permit o f a worker in accordance with the rules and reguladons of the CNMI laborcode,as amended. The job o f the labor is sensitive and need not be intervened by other sectors.

To whoever made such an idea, please note that the separation of functions between the two agen­cies is enforceable. W hile Labor is under the Office o f the Gover­nor, the Immigration is under the Office of the Attorney General. Public Law 1-8 on this matter is applicable as the reorganizational aspects. It is only thru the approval o f the Legislature that this can me implementable. H-Bill 7-110, Executive Branch which is the subject o f the reorganization is still before the House Judiciary on G overnm ental O peration Chairm an, Congressm an Bill Ada, thereby Public Law 1-8 still prevails, and doing such policy is violative in nature with our con­stitutional laws. Henceforth, without the amendment of the existing Public Law the inter­departmental office can not effect its plan.

Director Jack Torres is making good with his new policies in the

speedy processing o f labor per­mits. More often, they conduct spot checks on establishments and often found illegal workers or those w ithout th e necessary woridngpermits. DirectorTorres had instituted disciplinary mea­su res ag a in s t e rr in g and undersirable labor employees and is now m aking a rem arkable success.

As a citizen, I firmly believed that the idea o f m aking new policies in relation to speedy processing o f permits will only cause an overlapping o f functions between the two governm ent agencies and might just affect the progress being m ade by Dir. Torres. Besides, there must al­ways be a check and balance on this matter.

As a summary, Labor should increase more manpower in re­viewing the applications for work permits. Once it is already ac­cepted, it is deemed complete and without any deficiency, hence, a time saved for both those who follow up and the Labor staff, and a speedy disposition o f docu­ments. Moreover, persons to be authorized to follow up shall only be limited to legitimate licensee’s o f recruitm ent business, their designate and business partners and not to allow contract workers to follow their papers with the labor office. These idea, in my humble opinion will lessen over crowding and backlogs in the Labor Division. Labor cases are nowresolve more faster compared to the previous administration.

Finally, Director Torres must be suupported financially by the government to enable implement more o f his brilliant plans and additional manpower to service the needs of the CNMI govern­m en t I also wish to congratulate the Governor for making such a right choice. W e in the business sector support Dir. Jack Torres.

Hafadai.

Very truly yours,I s / Jesus Manglona Taisacan

Sakovich topped the field of 17 triathletes by negotiating the triangular course in the lagoon off the PIC beach in nearly two minutes ahead of Steams, Good and Phil Han

The three-lap bike course was a little tough on Sakovich when

Unfortunately, Steams and good both spun out on the rain- slicked road at the first turnaround between Koplerville and Hopwood Junior High School.

In the end, Sakovich tri­umphed, dropping Hoffman in second place in the bike race but good enough for third in the in­dividual competition.

PUBLIC NOTICEThe Government of the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands anticipates a $500,000 allocation in the Community Development Block Grant for Program Year 1990.

The grant funds, authorized under Title I of the Housing and' Community Development Act of 1974, may be used for a wide range of community development activities principally benefitting low and moderate income persons. Detailed information concerning eligible uses of the grant funds may be obtained upon request at the offices of the Mariana Islands Housing Authority located on Saipan, Tinian and Rota.

The CDBG program requires an applicant to certify that it will minimize displacement of persons as a result of activities assisted with CDBG funds.

The Mariana Islands Housing Authority which administers the CDBG program, will be conducting public hearings to obtain the views of citizens on community development and housing needs and provide information on the status of approved and on-going CDBG projects. The hearings have been scheduled to be held as follows:

1. On Tinian, August 7,1990, at 7:00 p.m., at the Tinian Retirement Office Conference Room.

2. On Rota, August 8,1990, at 7:00 p.m., at the Rota Elementary School Library.

CNMI Little League batters leave for JapanBy Lily 0 . RamosConfidence, discipline and

brimming optimism.These are the biggest ammuni­

tion the CNMI baseball little leaguers are bound to use in their trip to Japan as participants in the Far East Little League Baseball Tournament on July 27-29.

“We’re very optimistic in winning over everyone. The kids are very well disciplined and competitive. It’s an upward climb towards the top but hopefully, we would win the Far East title so we could head for the World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania,” said Jesus Pangelinan, the presi­

dent of Little League Baseball Association of CNMI.

Nevertheless,Pangelinan and assistant coach Robert Magofna are not taking the other six coun­tries lightly. The Philippines, Taiwan, Japan, Hongkong, People’s Republic of China and Indonesia areequally determined in earning the right to represent the Pacific Region in the World Series.

The CNMI came close twice in winning the Far East title; that was in 1986 and 1987 but dropped to fifth place when beaten by Hongkong and Indonesia in 1988.

Last year was tragic; CNMI

walked out against Pohnpei with a3-2 lead at the bottom of thefifth inning due to displeasure with the umpires’ calls.

“The crowd in Agat, Guam was hostile and we were getting short­changed , so we called it quits,” explained Megofna.

How did the CNMI LLBA start? According to Pangelinan, it started in the 70s but it was an on- and off affair due to lack of fund­ing, dearth of coaches, managers and trainors. Aside from that, there was no baseball field to speak of.

Pangelinan persisted in his ef­forts to popularize baseball, and

by 1984, he was elected as the first association presidenL “As I be­came more persistent, more prob­lems set in primarily on financial matters. It takes $2000 to start a team,” the current Director of the DepL Community and Cultural Affairs said.

The main reason why Pangelinan wanted baseball to take deep roots at the CNMI is because he wanted to halt the street fights among kids from different villages in the 60s and 70s.

“It was a common sight to see boys from San Antonio rushing against their counterparts in San Jose and so on and so forth. I wanted the kids to value disci­pline,camaraderieandrespect and the best way I could think of doing it is by promoting sports, especially baseball. Luckily, I succeeded and that’s what is im­portant.”

The CNMI Little Baseball League originally started with only four ballclubs a few years back but now, there are 20.

What makes Pangelinan even happier is the Legislature’s con­cern for the aspiring Little Leagu­ers. Through his requests and pleadings, the Legislature gave them $50,000 this year for travel expenses.

Private sponsorship have come into the picture after seeing the fruitful expansion of the sport, thereby, lessening the logistics burden of the different teams.

This year should be the CNMI Little Leaguers banner year be­cause of their intensive and exten­

sive training. The 12 years-and- under batters have been practic­ing for two hours a day,six times a week under strict supervision of the team officials.

The boys’ trip to Japan as competitors in the prestigious tournament is their incentive af­ter having been chosen from the cream of the different village ballclubs. Most, if not all of them have never travelled outside the Islands. Ten parents would also be tagging along at their own expense.

.Pangelinan, on the other hand, said that his satisfaction comes from seeing the kids progress on * the sport, particularly in sports­manship and fair play.

The team members are Craig Sanchez, catcher, Jesse Tomokane, pitcher, Glenn Camacho, first base, Ricky Falig, short stop, Dean Camacho, 2nd base, John Reyes, pitcher/3rd base, Luis Cepeda, pitcher/cen­ter, Jesse Pua, pitcher/center, John Teigita, left field, Calvani Guerrero, right field, Jesus Taitano, 3rd base, K. K Cushnie, picher, Vinnie Sablan, 2nd base, Romeo Ordillano, centerfield,' Shawn DL Guerrero, Cris Camacho and Frankie Angel, reserves.

The League officials are : Jess Pangilinan, presidenL James Ada, vice-president, Frank Sablan, sec./treasurer, Ben Lizama, manager, Joe Salas, coach, Mike Borja, asst coach, Nunu Sanchez, statistician, Manny TenorioandRokeTowai, umpires.
