Property Highlights

Former Use: The current owner of the site is Department of Public Lands (DPL). The Mayor of Saipan has proposed to develop the site for recreational activities (eco-tourism nature trail), which is approximately 261 acres. The subject site was used during the Japanese occupation (1914-1944) for the cultivation of sugarcane. In addition, a railroad track ran through the site which support the transportation of sugarcane by train. As a result of the large sugarcane operation on Saipan, there is reason to believe that pesticides was used for the protection of valuable crop. Saipan was a main battle ground during WWII which involved the firing of heavy artillery from military ships and planes all throughout the island. The island is littered with unexploded ordnance and the past discoveries and removals of these UXOs are documented. This site borders with the former Kagman Airfield which had bomb bunkers or revetments for ordnance storage. A large canon gun is found within the site that was probably use during WWII. All these evidence suggest the possibility that UXOs may be present at the site.
