Company (WDC) (formerly Raytheon Demilitarization Company, the Army s prime contractor for JACADS) U.S. Army Pacific (US ARP AC) U.S. Army Chemical Activity-Pacific (USACAP) U.S. Army Center for Health Promotion and Preventive Medicine (USACHPPM) the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Region IX (San Francisco) the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) the U.S. Air Eorce and the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS). The role of the IPT is to facilitate communication between and among all interested parties to bring into existence overall policies and procedures for achieving the acceptable closure of the JACADS facility. 

In the Department of Defense, the Department of the Army (the major tenant) and the Department of the Air Force (the current steward) will play lead roles in various aspects of closure. Another defense agency, the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, has been responsible for cleaning up the plutonium on Johnston Island. Although the Air Force is the current steward for the island, it will probably not be the agency ultimately responsible for the overall atoll and therefore is not in a position to make final determinations about end use.
