MPLC denied suit against Kan Pacificby Teri M. FloresThe Supreme Court has issued

its ruling denying the Marianas Public Land Corp. from suing Kan Pacific Saipan Ltd. and preventin g MPLC from forfeiting the land

lease agreement because of "res judicata."

The justices also reversed the decision of the trial court and has remanded the case for trial on the issue of damages brought up by

the MPLC against Kan Pacific.Based on a Sept 28 opinion,

the justices reasoned out that Kan Pacific hadagreedtoasubsequent suit for damages filed by MPLC and that Kan Pacific had agreed

to the second suit when it did not claim for damages to be barred under the stipulation to dismiss.

The opinion also stated that the two parties has been left with a judgement contradictory to their rights and obligations because a “whole controversy” between the two parties has not been coher­ently disposed of during the first action filed by the MPLC,

In the first action, it was de­termined that the trial court was not entertaining a damage claim since the MPLC did not seek damages in its complaint. The trial, which commenced on Dec. 1,1987, had MPLC present its case as that only for the posses­sion and forfeiture of the lease. No evidence was presented relat­ing to damages.

The stipulation to dismiss was not raised since no proof, evi­dence or arguments were raised, during the trial concerning the complaint. Both parties, including the trial court, were all anticipat­ing that the issue of damages could be litigated in another lawsuit, the opinion stated.

The trial court granted Kan Pacific’s motion for summary judgement when it argued that a

“res judicata” was barring it be­cause the second complaint was the same as that of the first

The MPLC complaint also had the same allegation as the first one however, more damages has been asked for because of the alleged defaults made by Kan Pacific.

According to the opinion,the MPLC’s right to sue Kan Pacific under section 12 of the agreement has been terminated when it failed to file action against Kan Pacific for any cause of action that could have been heard during the first suit.

The opinion also stated that if the ruling were to stand, a modi­fication of the lease agreement will be made which would not be the solution to the settling of the dis­pute. Both the MPLC and Kan Pacific’s intended contractual relationship will be thwarted as a result of the ruling, the justices wrote.

The justices wrote that “unless the MPLC can enforce the cov­enants in section 12,” Kan Pacific may continue to ignore its con­tractual duties.

Hie Federated States of Micronesia has available investment funding

E Q P VIIWI ̂Meeting Place For Ourand Yours

Dear EditorThis letter is in response to the

news article published on Sep­tember 25,1990 regarding Sena­tor Torres’ intention to amend the CRM Public Law. It is the purpose of this letter to clarify some mis­conceptions regarding the CRM permitprocessand the Public Law and regulations which guide CRM’s work. While we welcome legislative interest in ourwork and responsibilities, we hope that be­fore any changes are made to the present system, a realistic assess­ment of the situation will be made.

In Tuesday’s article, Senate«· Torres is quoted as saying that CRMpermits“sometimestaketwo years to be approved”. While it is true that a few permits (one or two) have taken thallong to be approved by CRM, this is an anomaly. Most major siting projects take six months to a year to be approved. The projects that take longer than a year to be permitted often have not provided adequate studies and reports to CRM to allow a com­

prehensive review. The mega- resorts which are now going through the permit process in the CNMI are very complex projects (often including several hundred guest rooms, golf courses, mari­nas, wetlands,etc.) whichrequire, by regulation and policy, exten­sive environmental review by all the CRM member Agencies (CUC, DEQ, DPW, C&L, HPO, DNR). The complex nature of many Saipan resort projects, compounded by serious island infrastructure inadequacies, makes effective environmental review difficult The absence of zoning, land-use and building code regulations makes this re­view even more time consuming.

The CRM Agency Directors support the Guerrero Administration’s desire for en­vironmentally sustainable growth. CRM is also mandated by our enabling legislation (PL 3-47) topermit wise development of coastal resources. It can be argued that Saipan is already

growing too fast as evidenced by the continuing infrastructure and environmental quality issues which face us. For these reasons, CRM cannot fathom why anyone concerned about the long-term quality of life in Saipan would advocate a speeding up of the permit process. It is obvious that expediting the permit process by setting an arbitrary review time of six months will only worsen our growing pains. While we realize that it is important for developers to have reliable time frames to work with and that CRM should be responsive to developers, we believe that an arbitrary review period will conflict with the very purpose of environmental review. Environmental review is essential for CRM Agency Directors to work toward mitigating the im­pacts of the tremendous growth which we are experiencing.

Permit review time is often lengthy for various reasons in­cluding: heavy pending permit load before CRM and the CRM

Agencies (150 thur far in 1990); other agency responsibilities; delays in receiving sufficient in­formation from applicants; changes in project plans mid-way through processing; public or government opposition; and lim­ited trained professional staff.

In last Tuesday’s article, Sena­tor Torres stated that “there is a saying that if you have the right connections in the government, you get the (CRM) permit fast”. While no office in the CNMI is immune to political pressure, the Senator might be reminded that two officials at CRM were fired last year because they did not give in to heavy-handed political pres­sure by the previous administra­tion. Unless Senator Torres is in the position to provide evidence of his unjustified accusations, it would be prudent to avoid such unnecessary discussion.

CRM encourages Senator

Torres as well as any other inter­ested parties to meet with CRM or CRM Agency Directors to discuss options for improving the permit process. The monthly CRM Di­rectors Meetings are open to the public as are all CRM permits, files and records. We truly hope that the Legislature will work constructively with CRM and the CRM Agency Directors to plan for sustainable growth in the CNMI.

Thank you for this opportunity to express our thoughts.

H ow th e N ew G eneration Fared on SaipanBy Lily 0 . RamosFor Matt Young, the producer-

manager of the New Generation which performed Sunday night at the Hyatt’s Gilligan, the group’s two sold out performances is a huge success, (he said there were more than 5,000 who attended) judging from the long line that waited at the lobby.

Flushed by his wards’ “suc­cess”, Y oung said he will promote the Reggae’s concert on Nov. 1- 2 in the same place and perhaps, bring in a bevy of wrestling stars at a later date.

W ho’s going to dispute Young’s observation? It might be true in the case of Saipan where the island population is about 40,000 but not necessarily so in bigger islands or countries.

At the start, the mixture of adults, yuppies and teenagers that gathered at the Gilligan’s were

excited to see the five young men on the stage complete with multi­colored disco lights and musical instruments.

The start was nearly an hour behind schedule. Young an­nounced laterthatsinceoneofthe members of the Sweet Sensation who are supposed to do a back- to-back performance with the New Generation lost her voice in Tokyo and had to be rushed back to New York for treatment, re­fund of tickets could be done 10 minutes before the boys would come out on stage.

There were few some boos but the crowd stayed on. With lights flashing and drums banging, Corey Lauren began the night with his rendition of a Bette Midler original of “Wind Beneath My Wings.” Passable but I would rather stick to the award-winning Midler.

The much-awaited stars took over from the long-haired Lauren with much shouting from the teen crowd. As the lights were turned off and on, the boys sang fast numbers which apparently did not register in the minds of the older audience.

“I don’t know any of their songs,” said a woman seated be­hind me. “I think, it’s more of noise than music.”

I was perked up when they sang a remake of the Stylistic’s “YouMakeMeFeel BrandNew,” but I don’t know, I ’d still insist on the orginal version.

Clinton, Nito, Freddy, Ronnie and Maestro; boys on the block whose looks are common among the high school students in nearby schools in Manila or Mexico.

They are Hawaiians but Freddy, the drummer and Nito who’s a tumbler are of Filipino parentage.The others have traces of Asian-Latin American in their roots.

The screams went louder and louderand themusical instruments clashed at each other everytime the quintet returned.

In fact, they encouraged it by firing up the audience so that those whose ears are more attuned to soft, romantic and classical music had to cover up for fear of break­ing their eardrums.

“I don’t understand what the shouting and screaming is all about, it’s not worth it,” said a piqued father whose teenage daughter was infront of the stage.

trying to touch the hand of lead singer Maestro.

Nothing is extraordinary about the group. Their routine and acts appeared common, I’ve seen it a lot of times among the better- known groups like the “The Menudo” when it had Charlie Mazo and Ray Acebedo in its lineup as well as, dancesteps from theJohnTravolta’sSaturday Night Fever some years back and Deney Terio’s dance competition on TV in the US.

Oh, New Generation, they are not the kind who would be able to fill up London’s Royal Albert Hall or even the Palladium like the way more established and time- tested artists like Barry Manilow,

Cliff Richard , Don Mclean or Michael Jackson.

Far from it, I doubt it, just not yet until they are able to perform in a concert with at least 40,000 people showing up to watch them.

If you’re one who could tol­erate the ear-splitting screams, the heavy clashing of drums and songs that don ’ t have the impact like the ones sung by Stevie Wonder, Randy Travis or Lionel Richie then the New Generation is for you.

The New Generation should take advantage of their time be­cause the taste of the audience is fickle. Today you ’ re in, tomorrow you’re gone. Fame, afterall, is an elusive thing.

CNMI SWAT officers graduatesby Ronel B. ConcepcionSeveral members of the inter­

agency law enforcement in the CNMI recently graduated from a two-week training course con­ducted by the FBI on Special Weapons and Tactics and Criti­

cal Incedent Management at the Northern Marianas College last Friday.

The graduates include 16 po­lice officers from Saipan, two Customs personnel, a representa­tive from the Fish and Wildlife

Departmentand two police offic­ers from Rota and Tinian.

Present during the ceremony were Governor Lorenzo I. De Leon Guerrero, DPS Director Gregorio M. Camacho, NMC President Agnes M. McPhetres, NMC Board of Regents member Bemadita T. Seman, and FBI LeadlnstructorRayG.Hamilton.

The Gov., during his speech, expressed appreciation to the FBI for sending Special Agents Ray Hamilton, Greg Harmon, Joseph Holtslag, and Henry Orzynski to teach SWAT and Crises Man­agement courses to CNMI offic­ers.

“Twenty years ago, there would have been no need to provide such courses for our fledging police force...but since then, CNMI has become an interna­tional tourism destination,” he said.

Guerrero said that “Great changes in transportation and communicationshavebroughtus into a more complicated and complex world with allits benefits and responsibilities.”

The training will be of benefit not only to the graduates, but also to the citizens and visitors of the CNMI adding that CNMI “will continue to improve and to be a safer place for everybody,” he said.

DPS Director Greg Camacho said that this is the first time FBI

offered such a course, which was brought about because the DPS, FBI and NMC “realized the im­portance of having well trained tactical and critical incident managers.”

FBI Lead Instructor Ray Hamilton said the two week in­tensive SWAT training they had “is a step forward in the capabil­ity of law enforcement in this part of the Pacific Basin.”

He said that the law enforce­ment now have a foundation in which “we can build skills and capabilities to operate effectively and efficiently...and we have got to follwo up this training for further improvement.”

DPS Administration Program Coordinator Peggy Cleveland said the courses the law en­forcements took for the last two weeks, is set to organize and train them to handle real crisis type situations.

The SWAT training, is a spe­cialized tactical training that teaches them how to handle problems when there are hostages involved like hijacking and the critical incident management course is held to run an operation in case major incident comes do wn such as a bank robbery, she said.

Cleveland said that It is very important to the FBI that police officers throughout the U.S. and the territories and the Common-

wealth are trained well, “because if anything really big happens, the FBI can not just get in the CNMI as they will still come from Hawaii or wherever, our guys have to take care of it, and then even after the FBI comes on the scene, it is still our group that will be on it.”

Cleveland said the SWAT training has an equivalent of three College units while the Critical Incident Management program is equivalent to two college unit

Torres questions Houses passage of budgetby Ronel B. ConcepcionThebudgetforfiscalyear 1991

as passed by the House of Rep­resentatives without input from the general public about $124 million of expenditure of public funds “is denying the public, participation in the government process,” according to Sen. Juan Torres.

The House mustconduct public hearings to get a cross-section of the departments involve in the government to make comments, to find out goals and the account-

ability of the spending of such funds, he said.

Torres said he is “questioning the hypocrisy of the House” in passing the budget without public hearing explaining that when the Senate passed the Shimizu lease “where the money involved is only a drop in the bucket,” the House is “crying” that there was not enough time to study the lease, to study the impact and to have more people comment on it.

He said that “now they just turn around and did the same thing,

without comments from the pub­lic... that is not fair and where is the principle of these people.”

He said that a group of PSS officials came to see him ex­pressing their surprise that a lot of PSS goals and objectives were not taken into consideration in the budget.

He cited for one example that PSS since hiring some new 200 teachers need an amount of $1M for housing “and the House gave only $75,000 which is very disparative.”

He said that appropriation for repairs and maintenance of buildings, equipment, buses for PSS CNMI wide is only $20,000 adding that “because of the cuts, PSS will not beable to implement some of their programs and goals for the incoming year.”

Torres said “we want good education, and if we don’t invest in education where do you expect this education to become qual­ity.”

The House appropriated in the

budget the amount of $600,000 for the renovation of the Legisla­ture building and just last year they also allocated about$400,000 to renovate the building “which is more than enough... thatshould better go to education,” he said.

He said “we should spend the limited resources that this gov­ernment generates into the best possible ways... and the empha­sis of the government should be education first, health and public safety, and the rest should only be second priorities.”

Masaro Salmon files expert testimony of mental condition

by TeriM . FloresA notice intending to introduce expert testimony regarding his mental condition has been filed by

Oldais Ngiraikelau, counsel for former police officer Masaro Saimon who is accused of killing his common-law-wife.

The notice, which intends to introduce the expert testimony at the trial hearing, was filed on Sept 25 in the Superior Court During the Aug. 23 hearing, Ngirakelau informed Chief Prosecutor Ron Hammett that he intended to introduce a plea of not guilty because of insanity.

Saimon has been incarcerated since June 12 after he allegedly shot his wife in the forehead. Court records also show that Simon was not released to a third party after failed to post the modified bail of$100,000.

Saimon has been accused of killing his wife, former police officer Erlinse Santos. Investigation reveal that an argument ensued between the victim and Saimon. Witnesses say that they disdncly heard Saimon yell at Santos that “he was going to kill her.”

A few moments later, a single shot rang out and Saimon was seen leaving the Dandan home he was sharing with his wife and three kids. Saimon was later arrested at the airport and upon investigation, a police-issued service revolver was seen in his vehicle.

Saimon is scheduled to appear on O ct 15 for jury trial. _____________

Fish and wildlife regs to be amendedby Ronel B. ConcepcionThe Division of Fisheries and

Wildlife of the CNMI is up to amend its fish and wildlife regu­lations of 1988 to involve three separate areas of fishery man­agement; prohibiting the com­mercial use of gill nets, setting of maximum size limits for certain inshore fishes and requiring per­mits for the collection of fish for aquariums, according to docu­ments from the agency.

Terry J. Donaldson, head of fisheries, said that for a number of years, the division had received a ' lot of complaints “with the qual­ity and quantity” of reef fishes in the C N M I.

He said that fishermen are growing “very much” in number and more different means of fishing are being employed than ever before.

The combination of commer­cial and subsistence fishing has resulted in “drastic declines in the number of fishes” which further resulted to fewer and smaller fishes, because they are already caught even before maturity, he said.

One of the methods that has been employed in all fifty states and elsewhere in the world “is to set size limits” which is one of the divisions’ new regulation,he said.

Donaldson said they targetted a number of different groups of fishes “and we put size limits on

it...theoretically, it will allow that fish to spawn at least once before it could be caught.”

He said they obtained the first sizes of reproduction just from looking at the scientific fisheries literature which appeared during

the last twenty years.He said that most of the size

limits that were in place also ap­plies for some species that grows to a very big size.

He said that this specie can be caught between the lower limit and the upper limit “butnot on the either side of the limit” which they termed as the slot limiL

He said it is a “tool” being used for a number of years in different places throughout the US “to al­low fishes to spawn at least once, then you can catch them, but only when they get to a certain size.”

If the fishermen will catch all fishes, itreduces the total number of available fish “that could be potentially available at a later date,” he said.

He said that aside from the problem of overfishing, “there is also the problem of habitat de­struction.”

He said they are restricting the commercial use of gill nets, which “is a very deadly and effective” means for subsistence fisherman because it kills a lot of fishes and their habitats.

He said a lot of fisherman “are sloppy on their nets which get ripped on corals” that keeps on catching fish and plants and ev­erything else which just die.

The regulation now is that gill nets will be restricted to 100 feet in total length, because “the shorter the easier to manage,” he

said.Donaldson said that “we don’t

say fishermen can’t fish 500 feet net, it is just that they would have 5 sets at 100 feet each fixed in a series not necessarily attached but can be put entirely close to one

another.”The prohition in the collection

of dead corals was expanded to include softcoralsandstony coral with the provision the a license should first be secured from the Chief of the Division of fish and Wildlife when collecting with a purpose, according to the pro­posed amendment document

The rule on the collection of aquarium fishes, defined as any fish captured in CNMI waters

• either displayed live or killed and displayed for decoration strictly prohibits its shipment to a foreign country.

The document provides that a license or a special permit de­pending on its usage which will either be for commercial collec­tion, display or personal use, should be secured from the divi­sion.

The proposed regulation also prohibits the “commercial ex­portation” of marine invertebrates defined by the amendment document as any non-vertebrate organism captured in CNMI wa­ters either displayed live or killed for decoration including starfish, crabs, sea cucumbers, bivalve shells and gastropid shells.

A public hearing, to hear rec­ommendations regarding the proposed amendment will be conducted by the Division of Fish and Wildlife on the following

dates: For Saipan, Oct. 10,7 p.m. at the San Antonio elem. School and Oct. 11,7 p.m.attheTanapag Elem. School; For Rota, Oct. 18. 7 p.m. at the Rota High School and for Tinian, on Oct. 9,7 p.m. at the Tinian Social Hall.

Cham ber told .Continued from page 1 monitored regulary to provide a better focus for the Common­wealth.

Based on the increase of tour­ists visitingthe island, Forster said that CNMI will experience a dra­matic impact on the infrastructure, roads, water and solid waste dis­posal as a result of the dramatic increase of population on the is­land.

He also assessed that land con­sumption patterns reveal that land in the Commonwealth will be exhausted by 2015. He said that a

revised projection is necessary since events tend to overlook original projections.

Forster, who has also been con­tracted by the CNMI Zoning Board to do a zoning plan for the CNMI, said that the implementa­tion and enforcement of a zoning plan should be done wherein which architectural guidelines, utility and infrastructure designs should also be determined.

Forster also said that the Com­monwealth has been successful in implementing the proper zon­ing for the island and that the CNMI Ls wayahcadbeyondGuam

in terms of the implementation of zoning.

He also made the assumption that the CNMI will have a total population of 52 million for the next 25 years with a high growth of 186,000 for Saipan, 13,000 for Rota and 16,000 for Tinian.

Forster also expects the local population to number 32,000 for Saipan, 4,000 residents for Rota and 23,000 for Tinian. Saipan will be hosting 24,000 visitors a year while Rota will get 16,000 with Tinian getting its share of 10,000 visitors.

MPLC denied.Continued from page 1 12 more years,” Kan Pacific’s covcnasnts and obligations under section 12 of the agreement be­comes meaningless and the

MPLC woill not be able to sue damages, the opinion stated.

Kan Pacific Saipan Ltd. has entered into an agreement with the Northern Marianas gov­ernment to lease 149 hectares of

land in Marpi under which sev­eral recreational facilities includ­ing an 18 hole golf course and an olympicsizeswimmingpoolhad been constructed on the premises.
