CQ誌8月号に状況について報告のあったKP1ナバサ島DXペディションの件ですが、懸案であったthe U.S. Fish and Wildlife Serviceからの許可が下りたようで18ヶ月以内に実施される予定とのことです

わたしは既設シャックがないのでDXは追いかけていませんが欲しいエンティティの上位にあり20年ぶりということのようですので朗報ですね
今回の朗報にはUSFWSの担当者の顔ぶれがかわっていたものの同じプエルトリコにあるオフィスが窓口で過去のデセチェオ（K5D)でのぺディション実績が大きいようですね
太平洋の島のぺディションもUSFWSがネックと聞いていますが道が開かれるといいですね

KP1 Navassa Island
The KP1-5 Project is pleased to announce that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service has agreed to allow an amateur radio operation from Navassa
National Wildlife Refuge (KP1). The operation will occur within the next
18 months and will be coordinated with the USFWS work flow.
Over the past year, the KP1-5 Project has had numerous meetings with
various levels of USFWS management. Throughout our discussions, their
personnel have been courteous, professional and cooperative. We have
been treated with sincere interest and respect and believe that amateur
radio operators may now be viewed as partners and not adversaries.
As with the Desecheo operation in 2009, and in order to be transparent
and fair, the USFWS has requested proposals for the amateur radio
operation from those individuals and groups that have already applied
for a Special Use Permit in the past. The KP1-5 Project will be
submitting a proposal and hoping to be selected as they were for the
very successful Desecheo (K5D) operation.
We wish to thank the USFWS for their decision to allow this operation.
Navassa Island is ranked #2 most-needed DXCC entity by The DX Magazine
and #1 by ClubLog.
