The Governor let two measures lapse into law.

Bill 272 which would modernize the retention and dissemination of the procurement record and promote transparency and efficiency in GovGuam lapsed into law, along with Bill 276 which requires all Guam Department of Education Superintendent reports submitted to the education board be posted on the GDOE website. 

Nine other bills were signed over the weekend.

This includes Bill 263 which transfers land from Parks and Recreation to the Chalan Pago-Ordot Mayor, Bill 332 relative to the virtual power plant program, Bill 337 which authorizes the Governor to condemn and buy 1,149 square meters in Asan-Maina for a necessary drainage ditch and ponding basin. 

Additionally, the Governor signed Bill 368 into law which allocated funds for renovation and maintenance of the Department of Corrections facilities and substitute Bill 365 which establishes the Guam Uniform Limited Cooperative Association Act.
