The Deputy Secretary of War issued a memorandum on September 30, 2025, addressing concerns about the high costs of Department of War (Do W) leases for administrative and warehouse space. The directive aims to reduce costs and protect taxpayers by limiting new leases and Occupancy Agreements (OAs) to local market rental rates for comparable properties within a 10-mile radius. These rates will include rent, operating expenses, and tenant improvement allowances, excluding physical security costs for Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility or Special Access Program space. Do W tenants are directed to renegotiate existing above-market leases, exploring landlord willingness to lower rates as an alternative to relocation. New leases are exempt from Do W Unified Facilities Criteria but must comply with federal law, Interagency Security Committee security standards, local fire codes, and occupancy data collection. A moratorium is imposed on new leases in the National Capital Region (NCR). For 12 months, the Under Secretary of War for Acquisition and Sustainment can waive the NCR moratorium and market rental rate up to 125 percent if it's in the Department's best interest. The Department will continue efforts to improve real property leasing operations and reduce costs.

The document outlines the process for determining prevailing wages under the Guam H-2B visa program. It explains that the Guam Department of Labor (GDOL), in conjunction with the U.S. Department of Labor, establishes these wages. If a Governor-approved occupational wage survey is unavailable, the Guam Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (GOEWS) mean wage is used. A June 2020 GDOL survey, based on the 2010 Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) system, identified 504 SOC occupations. Of these, 194 met regulatory standards, while 31 did not. The 2020-2023 H-2B Wage Table includes 707 SOC occupations: 194 from the Governor's survey, 96 from GOEWS mean wages, and 417 with adjusted GOEWS wages. These wages became effective July 1, 2020, and remain valid through June 30, 2023. An adjustment factor of 0.96 applies to national GOEWS wages for this period. Employers must submit requests for prevailing wage determinations via Form ETA9165 through the FLAG system. Wage determinations are based on the available wage source at the time of issuance and are valid for no fewer than 90 days. Employers receiving a determination based on GOEWS wages that are later superseded by an approved Governor's survey must file a new request to receive the approved survey wage.
