On February 28, 2020, the US Coast Guard facilitated a Guam Area Maritime Security Committee (GAMSC) General Membership meeting held at the Port Command Center. The primary purpose of the meeting was to provide information on FEMA’s 2020 Port Security Grant Program, a presentation by the US Navy on its Inter-Agency Underwater Port Assessment initiative and an update and look ahead on the 2020 AMSTEP exercise schedule. The meeting was well attended by officials from the US Coast Guard, Guam Homeland Security and the Office Civil Defense, Guam Customs and Quarantine, Guam Marianas Regional Fusion Center, Joint Region Marianas (JRM), US Navy San Diego IUPA Team, and the Port’s Strategic Planning and Police Divisions.
