Laolao vegetation project
(DLNR) — The Department of Lands and Natural Resources and its Divisions of Agriculture and Fish and Wildlife, along with the Division of Environmental Quality, the Coastal Resources Management Office and local NGOs Beautify CNMI, MINA and Friends of the Marianas, have teamed up to re-vegetate a segment of the Laolao badlands.
The Laolao watershed project aims to reforest 27 acres in the Laolao area, categorized by the Laolao watershed project committee as “badland,” CNMI Forester and Division of Agriculture acting Director Vic Deleon Guerrero said.
Badlands are open areas, and they threaten the marine ecosystem at Laolao bay with increased runoff and sedimentation.
“This is important in terms of erosion prevention and beautifying our island,” said Deleon Guerrero.
Recently, the team planted 100 Haigue (Cocos nucifera), five Chopak (Mamea odorata), five Joga (Elaeocarpus joga), 15 Puteng (Barrangtonia asiatica), five Banalo (Thespesia pulpunea), and five Hoda (Ficus tinctoria).
For more information, contact Deleon Guerrero at 256-3301.
Puppies for adoption

The adoptive parents are looking for responsible homes that will have the puppies spayed/neutered/fixed to prevent more unwanted animals on the islands.
If you are interested in adopting one or more of these little pups, contact Mark Hanson at 287-8600 or – 233-8600.
