AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Typhoon Recovery & Maritime Access: A federal-local team starts a 30-day vessel removal operation at Smiling Cove Marina on June 1 to restore safe, full waterway access; road access at Basin Place and Marina Lane connection points will close during work, while water and boat ramp access stay open. Power Restoration & Theft: Saipan’s primary-line restoration is just over 50% but crews hit a plateau as copper conductor theft forces skipped spans; CUC says tens of thousands of feet of missing copper are slowing energization. Leadership in Recovery: USACE transitioned command of the Super Typhoon Sinlaku Recovery Field Office on May 26, with Lt. Col. Simratpal Singh taking over from Lt. Col. Adrian Biggerstaff. Tinian Grid Back On: FEMA/USACE delivered sustained temporary generator power to Tinian after storm damage to the power plant, aiming to keep homes and critical facilities running while permanent repairs proceed. Small Business Support: SBA will open an additional Saipan Business Recovery Center location on June 2 to help Sinlaku-impacted businesses with disaster loan applications. Renewables Push: CUC’s solar plan targets 53 MW on Saipan, 11 MW on Tinian, and 3 MW on Rota, with battery storage, as the utility moves to cut fuel dependence. Education & Workforce: NextGen Summer Internships are open for CNMI high school and NMC students, with tracks in food/agriculture and disaster recovery across Saipan, Tinian, and Rota. Conservation: NAVFAC Marianas and partners completed the Annual Fanihi (Mariana fruit bat) population count, recording 269 bats across Guam, Saipan, and Tinian. Justice & Immigration: A Filipino national was sentenced to 18 months in CNMI federal court for a work-permit fraud scheme involving 242 fraudulent applications.
