Governor· Signs Budget by Dan Phillips Governor Pedro P. Tenorio,

expected by many to sign the Supreme Court bill early this week, instead passed another major bill yesterday -- the budget..

Both the Senate and the House passed the final draft of the budget during sessions of the Legislature Friday that went on all day and all night.

In an official letter to the Speaker of the House and the Senate President, Tenorio said he had signed the bill although

. certain items had not been

addressed sufficiently. H ~ gave the American Memorial Park and Quarantine Overtime as specific areas that arc fully addressed in the budget.

The final version of the S82.7 million budget is a result of tireless work by the Budget Conference Committee, made up of members of the Senate Fiscal Affairs Committee and the House Ways and Means Committee, which met continuously from February 27 up until the time of the bill's passing. Senator Joseph Inos and Representative

David Sablan were the Chairmen of the Committee.

Sablan says the CNMI government's deficit is addressed in Chapter IV of the budget, which reserve~ the surplus from fiscal years 1987 and 1988 (over S 12 million) for the sole purpose o f liquidating the deficit, which along with the $291,000 appropriated for deficit reduction should effectively liquidate the budget, according to Sablan.

Rep. David C. Sablan

Sablan said he has been working on this for months and has enlisted a group of volunteers who will be going from door to

:loor to explain the purpose of .he petition.

He said,"It is so import.ant for Jcoplc to know that we arc not asking them to decide whether or not there should be gambling in the CNMI.

All we want registered voters to do is sign the petitions being circulated to allow ALL the

people to decide whether we should have gambling here. For too long, only a few people have decided." .

Petition signers will be asked to print and sign their names and put their affidavit numbers on the petitions.

In order for an itnitiative to be put on the November ballot 50% of the registered voters must have signed the petition.

If the initiative is successful and is placed on the ballot, voters could outlaw gambling in CNMI, by a Constitutional Amendment which would override any local ordinances regarding gambling.

Sablan said the petitions will be translated into Chamorro and Carolinian. He said petitions will dlso be circulated on Tinian and Rot.a.

The budget was passed without bothersome "riders", according to the Committee report. Two issues originally included as "riders" were passed by both houses Friday as separate legislation. One bill involves a subsidy for

residential power users and the other is a salary increase for classified government employees. The Governor has yet to act on either bill.

Opinion Says Governor Can Seek Re-election

by Dan Phllllps Attorney General Alex

Castro ruled in a written opinion Thursday that Governor Pedro P. Tenorio is not restricted legally from seeking a third term in the general election this November.

The Governor has said publicly that he would support Lt. Gov. Pedro A. Tenorio in the gubernatorial race and not seek a third term.

Castro ruled that the 12th Amendment of the CNMI Constitution, which says, "No person may be elected

Governor more than twice", docs not apply in this case because he has not served two terms since the Amendment became law on January 7, 1986.

"It is a well-settled principle of legislative construction that cons ti tu tional and statutory provisions apply only prospectively (after the law is passed), not retrospectively (including before the law is passed), in the absence of a clear intent to the contrary," said Castro.

CUC 'Electrocution' Bill Passes House and Senate by Patty Jacobs After two days of intense

questioning of CUC personnel, Senate Bill 6-162 quickly gained passage through both the Senate and House in last Friday's marathon legislative sessions.

The "electrocution" bill ,as the legislation came to be known.resulted from numerous complaints of home owners saying that they couldn't get power hookups because of

CUC's stringent regulations. The C o m m o n w e a 1 t h

Utilities Commission(CUC) board and staff met with Senators Juan Guerrero, Paul Manglona and Jose Mafnas who questioned the recent CUC practice of refusing to set electric meters on dwellings unless the residence is equipped with main disconnect switches on the outside of the house.

CUC Executive Director Pete Sasamoto said the

CNMI Delegatio.n Appearing Before U.S. Congress

by Dan Phillips A delegation of high-ranking

Commonwealth officials left for Washington, D.C. Saturday to testify on the CNMI's role in the U.S. fiscal year 1990 budget, according to Senate President Benjamin Manglona.

Benjamin Manglona

Manglona, House Speaker Pedro Guerrero and Lt. Gov. Pedro A. Tenorio will head the group that will present several concerns to the U.S. Congress.

The CNMI's right to self­govemment will be one of the main topics covered by Manglona and Guerrero in their joint presentation to the House and Senate Subcommittee on the Department of the Interior and Related Agencies.

Manglona said he would urge resumption of the 902 talks before July I, the deadline by which the people of the CNMI can decide whether or not they want to vote in November's election to reconsider, recall or renegotiate the Covenant.

Among the budgetary requests that will be made is a request for $20 million in "over-ceiling" funds for building roads on Saipan, Rota

and Tinian. This funding would be in addition to, or "over the ceiling'', of Capital Improvement Funds already provided to the CNMI.

Manglona said a request will also be made for assistance from the U.S. in irradicating the melon fly in the CNMI and Guam. He said such a project would cost approximately $15 million.

The Senate President also said there is a good chance the U.S. will grant the CNMl's request for about S3 million to develop American Memorial Park.

The CNMI will request an additional $28 million to help improve the Saipan Harbor, Manglona said. He said about $10 million is currently available from the federal government and another S 13 million is available in CNMI funding, but that the total cost of the project that would widen and deepen the harbor is estimated at $52 million.

Another concern that will be addressed is the impact of people coming into the CNMI from the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM). Manglona said the U.S. has agreed to do a study on that impact.

Manglona also said the CNMI delegation would request that the U.S. observe the CNMI as a nuclear-free zone: He said this request is being made in light of U.S. plans to store nuclear waste in the Marshall Islands. "Migrating fish such as tuna can be made sick by this ·nuclear waste," said Manglona.

Commission is using the National Electrical Code (NEC) as it's authority on the installation of meters. "The NEC is quite clear about the minimum requirements for installation of electric meters,"said Sasamoto.

Keith Sakai, with more than 25 years experience as an electrician, said that requiring the right size wiring, Underwriter's Laboratory (UL) approved electrical equipment and proper installation are absolutely necessary to protect people from electrical hazards. Sakai has been with · CUC since last year and has been overseeing the hookups of electric meters throughout the CNMI.

"Electrical hazards don't just happen in old buildings. They happen in buildings that have been wired improperly, or where undersized wiring is used," he said.

Sakai showed pictures of dwellings which had burned and had reports of electrocution which had resulted from illegal and hazardous wiring.

Each of the senators pointed out that most of the dwellings in CMNI have been standing for many years and didn't seem to have any adverse effects from not meeting the CUC

recent requirements, such as having an electrical main disconnect switch on the outside of the house.

While the CUC stated that high standards for electrical installations have to be required in order to guarantee the safety of the people in the houses, the Senators pointed out that having these high standards suddenly imposed on them has caused home owners a hardship.

The hardship is primarily because the owners did not have enough notice to comply with the NEC requirements and

. they also did not have the information on how to comply readily available, Manglona observed.

Sasamoto and Sakai said that several of the installations they had seen were so substandard that they (CUC) did not want to take responsibility for hooking up their meters

Manglona suggested CUC inspectors inspect the wiring in the dwellings prior to hookup to make sure there are no haz.ards.

Sakaki said they could not do that because it was outside their jurisdiction. He said, "You need a building code for that. A building code determines if the interior of the

house is wired correctly." Manglona then suggested the

CUC hire an independent building inspector to inspect the interior of buildings where there is a question of whether or not the wiring is hazardollil.

Sasamoto said,"We have no problem with that All we need is the funding."

The question of liability was raised by Sakai, when Manglona suggested the CUC "go ahead and install electric meters even if the houses don't have main switches on the outside."

Manglona then said that having the CUC customer sign a waiver of liability holding CUC harmless for any future electrical failure or accident

Counsel for both the Senate and CUC said there might be a problem with the language used in a waiver because cue had waived "sovereign immunity".

Sovereign Immunity means that no one can sue the government for damages. By waiving this rigbt a department or agency is vulnerable to suit

The Senators · originally proposed January 1,1990 as the date to require all installations of electric meters to meet the

THINK ABOUT IT­M1seoucATION By Bobble Lynch

Contrary to the advice of established authorities, some educational administrators are advocating that children enter school at age four, while many writers encourage parents to teach infants and toddlers reading, math and science. At misguided parental pressure, many kindergartens have introduced curricula, including worksheets once reserved for first-grade.

But amid all the contradictory advice, parents should listen to established authorities in the field rather than those who stand to gain financially from products or programs they endorse. The professionals in child psychology, pediatrics, and child psychiatry are solidly against "miseducation," formal education at too early an age.

According to Dr. Benjamin Spock, "There are separate stages of development when each skill can be more readily learned, and trying to rush through them could misfire. In fact, experiments done years ago indicated that children who begin reading at seven developed fewer reading problems than those who started at six."

The philosophy of the nursery school movement does not include the three R's. It emphasizes that its only

concern is with the physical, teaching children any skill at emotional, intellectual and any age. Children love to social aspects of development "work with" the parents which come before schooling. whether it's baking, shopping, This is the "teaching-respon- cleaning, gardening, carpentry, sibility," that I stressed for car repairs, or whatever.

Trial Start For Hafa Adai Suspect by Dan Phillips The federal jury trial for

Wilfredo Cayanan, the only one of four Filipinos suspected of robbing the Hafa Adai gift shop on February 9 who hasn't confessed, started yesterday in the U.S. District Court.

Cayanan and Apolinario Cuyson were scheduled to be tried, but Cuyson pleaded guilty Friday afternoon to conspiring to transport stolen items in interstate commerce, the same charge Cayanan is

facing. Two other Filipinos, Alberto

Velarde and Amado Samortin, had early pleaded guilty in the Commonwealth Trial Court to theft and burglary.

U.S. Attorney Richard Pierce began the trial yesterday by recounting the facts of the case to the members of the jury and trying to establish that a conspiracy did exist.

Cuyson testified that he was informed by the other three about their plans to rob the

store, and admitted that he was the one who was to transport the stolen items back to the Philippines.

Ray Yana, Cayanan's attorney, tried to demonstrate that the police did not follow correct procedures in taking the defendants to the police station or in the subsequent search.

The suitcase full of jewels found by the police was suppressed as evidence in a ruling by Federal Judge Alex R. Munson last week.

No Funds Blamed for Broken Toilets by Patty Jacobs

The toilet rooms of the House and senate building are hazardous to use. Two toilets in the women's restroom are mute testimony to this.

One is marked"out of order"

and has been for more than two years, according to a female employee who works in that building.

The other toilet moves a good three inches when being · used, which indicates that it is

Dear Friends & Colleagues of Education:

A diverse groups of students in both the private and publi.:: schools have expressed their concerns, views, and desires regarding the improvement of their education in the Commonwealth. After listening to them and seriously evaluating their interests, I felt that I owe the students

Standard installation of toilets requires that they be completely sealed at the base with a "closet ring", which is a waxed rim,and bolted into

experiences in educational development ( e.g., Board of Regents, Five-Year Education Master Plan, Parent-Teacher Association, Interscholastic Program, Annual Education Week, etc.).

To my friends, colleagues, and supporters of education, I, too, share your visions and aspirations: for a firm direction in upi:radini: the m1blic school svstem; for a clear, vision on the role of public education in economic development; for respect of our culture ;md heritaee; and for a ~reater communitv input and participation.

Out of these concerns, visions, and aspirations led my commitment to 5crve the students, friends, colleagues, and supporters of public education

Director of Public Works, John Pangelinan said that funding for maintenance is part of the budget process.

Since the budget has not been approved by th e legislature and signed by the Governor his department has not had the necessary funds to make repairs, he said.

Pangelinan explained, "Each department of the government has their own maintenance budget. We are officially not supposed to do any work in the Judicial or Legislative branch offices unless we rccei ve a job order for repairs."

Several · women in the Legislative building related calling the Public Works Department and requesting repair of the toilets. In no case has the "out of order" toilet ever been repaired.

One employee said,"It was worse before. It's always been bad and l've been here since the Fifth Legislature (two years). The water used to really splash out of the base of the toilet. I guess there was a hole in the pipe. Two months ago th~y

repaired the splashing so sometimes the toilet works."

There is no toilet paper available in the restrooms.Employees verify that they have always had to provide their own toilet paper.

The doors to the restrooms do not close; the stall doors do not close and there is no working electric lighting in the women's restroom.

Because the outer doors are never closed leaves and debris arc swept by the wind into the

restrooms.The lavatory sinks are dirty and therefore unsanitary. There arc no paper towels or trash receptacles.

"We'll come up and check on that" has been the standard reply from the Department of Public Works "troubleshooter" according to the women working in the building.

"But some times it takes them two months to get up here. Sometimes they get here sooner, but the restroom is never completely fixed. And the toilets have problems again soon after they tell us that they have been fixed," said a woman employee.

She added,"We're tired of calling Public Works. Everyone says they'll fix it and agree that it is a terrible problem but no one will fix if"

When questioned about the lack of permanent repairs done at the Legislative building, Pangelinan said that lack of funding has been the primary problem.

He said,"· We had a bad experience with spending money that was not allocated in the budget for repairs. We were questioned why I did.it. I told them it had to be done; we went ahead and did it anyway, even though we didn't have the funding.

Pangelinan added,"We've been operating on credit spending until the budget is. approved, for emergency repairs."

Postscript: As of press time Monday, one toilet in the Women's restroom was operational and the other appeared to be the process of being repaired.

NEC. This date was selected as

enough time Lo prepare the public with the proper information for compliance.

The version actually introduced in the Bill reflected September 1,1989 as the cut­offdate.

The Bill provides that owners of existing residential structures who have an application on file before September I, for electrical service will not be refused connection because they do not have an external circuit breaker box. It, however, does stale that CUC is not required Lo provide an electrical service connection to "any residential dwelling with a patently dangerous or unsafe electrical system."

The Bill docs not address the issue of whether or not an electrical service connection made during the interi;n period (until September 1) which did not meet the requirements of the NEC will have to comply with the Code by making the necessary corrections, after the September deadline.
