Speaker Therese Terlaje introduced Bill 165-36, co-sponsored by Senator Sabina Flores Perez, which aims to enhance GEPA’s enforcement by removing the caps on fines for civil penalties for Guam soil erosion and sediment violations. Senator Perez introduced Bill 166-36, co-sponsored by Speaker Therese Terlaje, which seeks additional funding in order to expand the enforcement capacity of Guam Environmental Protection Agency (GEPA).

“These bills will ensure the protection of our aquifer and other natural resources from blatant and egregious disregard for Guam’s environmental laws,” Speaker Terlaje said. “Harms done to the environment are harms done to our people and should be punished to the highest extent.”

Senator Perez added, “Both Bill 165-36 and Bill 166-36 are essential to support GEPA as part of a coordinated response amongst our agencies, policymakers, and community. Our natural environment is a precious resource, but it is fragile, and we must always make a collective effort to protect our environment for us and our future generations.”
