Del. James Moylan has issued a revised announcement on National Defense Authorization Act impact on Guam Wednesday, saying the island will get $1.3 billion in the House of Representatives version of the measure, not $3 billion as he stated on Monday.

Moylan said the NDAA allocates $1.06 billion in military construction and $105 million for 250 new family housing units on Guam. He said the act also includes $795 million in new multiyear authorizations for military construction projects.

He said the missile defense project includes $11.35 million in procurement funding and $128.49 million for research and development.
