Joint Task Force-Red Hill (JTF-RH) Commander, U.S. Navy Vice Adm. John Wade, delivers remarks during a planning meeting between JTF-RH staff and members of the Navy Closure Task Force-Red Hill (NCTF-RH) at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, Nov. 28, 2023. The organizations are collaborating closely to support a deliberate, methodical, conditions-based transition of operations to the Navy for closure of the Red Hill Bulk Fuel Storage Facility (RHBFSF). The meetings are being held to ensure an unambiguous understanding of milestones, objectives, responsibilities, manning and resourcing requirements, strategic engagements, and conditions to transition responsibility for operations. JTF-RH is in the fifth and final phase of its defueling plan, where JTF-RH along with Defense Logistics Agency Energy and Fleet Logistics Center Pearl Harbor, are safely defueling the RHBFSF. This stage saw the removal of more than 99.5 percent of fuel, with planned strategic pauses for safety checks, and transporting the fuel to various locations throughout the Pacific. Phase 5 defueling continues with JTF-RH removing the flowable tank bottoms, unpacking the fuel pipelines, and removing residual fuel located in the surge lines and portions of the tank gallery. JTF-RH will complete its defueling mission at the end of Phase 5, which is projected to end no later than March 31, 2024. (DoD photo by U.S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. John Linzmeier)
