(3) The most probable vector for the introduc-
tion of the brown tree snake into Hawaii, the Com-
monwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, or the 
continental United States is the movement from 
Guam of military aircraft, personnel, and cargo, in-
cluding the household goods of military personnel 
and other military assets. 
(4) It is probable that the movement of military 
aircraft, personnel, and cargo, including the house-
hold goods of military personnel, from Guam to Ha-
waii, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana 
Islands, or the continental United States will in-
crease significantly coincident with the increase in 
the number of military units and personnel stationed 
on Guam. 
(5) Current policies, programs, procedures, and 
dedicated resources of the Department of Defense 
and of other departments and agencies of the United 
States may not be sufficient to adequately address 
the management, control, and eradication of the 
brown tree snake on Guam and the increasing threat 
of the introduction of the brown tree snake from 
Guam into Hawaii, the Commonwealth of the North-
ern Mariana Islands, the continental United States, 
or other non-native environments.
(b) EFFECTIVE DATE.—The amendment made by 
subsection (a) applies to goods entered, or withdrawn from 
warehouse for consumption, on or after the 15th day after
