This situation creates logistical problems for effectively supporting maintenance and training operations at hanger facilities on Kadena.

This BCA requires evaluation of three identified COAs. ? Status Quo - Continue to operate under current circumstances. ? MILCON/JFIP - Program, fund, and construct the proposed BEQ/BOQ (P-810 Phases 1 & 2). ? TLF - Pursue the funding and construction of a phased Temporary Lodging Facility (TLF) 3.
