HI HR128

Requests the United States Armed Forces ensure military oversight of all contractors and civilian workers at U.S. military facilities in Hawaii.

Cites multiple fuel spills at Red Hill Bulk Fuel Storage Facility in May 2021 (over 20,000 gallons), November 2021 (over 19,000 gallons resulting in 3,300 gallons contaminating drinking water), and November 2022 (1,300 gallons of firefighting foam).

References Rear Admiral Christopher Cavanaugh's investigation findings of "a culture of complacency and lack of professionalism" and the removal of military oversight of day-to-day operations in February 2021.

Notes that military members were not on duty during the May 2021 spill and that the investigation revealed "blurred lines of responsibility, authority, and accountability" at the facility.

Requires transmission of certified copies to the Secretary of Defense, U.S. Army Pacific, U.S. Navy Pacific Fleet, U.S. Pacific Air Forces, U.S. Marine Corps Forces Pacific, and U.S. Coast Guard District Fourteen.
