     WHEREAS, the United States Coast Guard District 14 (search and rescue) is currently headquartered in Honolulu in the federal building on Ala Moana Boulevard; and

 

     WHEREAS, the United States Coast Guard would prefer to be headquartered at Kalaeloa in the interests of proximity to Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam and being more centrally located on Oahu; and

 

     WHEREAS, Kalaeloa was formerly the location of Barbers Point Naval Air Station, which makes the site an ideal location for the United States Coast Guard District 14 headquarters; and
