evidence: EPA's Pacific Islands Office (PIO) works with the U.S. territories in the Pacific Ocean, including Guam, American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (which includes Saipan, Rota and Tinian), and Wake Island. To a lesser extent we work with the former trust territories and now Freely Associated States of Palau, the Marshall Islands, and the Federated States of Micronesia. [...] PIO has several ongoing initiatives in non-flag areas. We are involved in the implementation of the treaty (i.e., Compacts of Free Association) obligations in the Republic of the Marshall Islands, where PIO works closely with local government and the Army's Space and Missile Defense Command to develop and implement environmental standards for the Kwajalein Missile Range. On Wake Atoll, we are working with the Army to achieve compliance with applicable environmental standards.
