The only change that the Senate has made to an administration bill aimed at fighting the territory’s litter problem is to add the Office of Samoan Affairs to the list  of ASG officials who can issue litter citations under the new litter law.

The other departments and agencies given authority under the new legislations are American Samoa Environmental Protection Agency (AS-EPA), American Samoa Power Authority (ASPA), Department of Health (DOH), Marine and Wildlife Resources (DMWR), Parks and Recreation (P&R), and the Department of Public Safety (DPS).

Senators approved the bill in final reading by unanimous vote.
