Airport silent on Barnes' review

Posted: Updated:

Guam - The Guam International Airport Authority still hasn't responded to a letter from Senator Tina Rose Muna-Barnes asking why the airport hasn't begun its review of the salaries of certified, technical, and professional employees. Legislation was passed in early last year calling for the study, but the airport still has not made significant moves to bring it to fruition.

Muna-Barnes issued the letter on December 23, but according to GIAA Spokesperson Rolenda Faasumalie, there have been no plans to discuss a pay study in upcoming airport board meetings.
