JOINT BASE PEARL HARBOR-HICKAM,Hawaii - Personnel in support of Joint Task Force-Red Hill (JTF-RH) begin unpacking Red Hill Bulk Fuel Storage Facility (RHBFSF) fuel pipelines at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, Dec. 12, 2023. JTF-RH is in the fifth and final phase of its defueling plan, where JTF-RH along with Defense Logistics Agency Energy and Fleet Logistics Center Pearl Harbor, are safely defueling the RHBFSF. This stage saw the removal of more than 99.5 percent of fuel, with planned strategic pauses for safety checks, and transporting the fuel to various locations throughout the Pacific. Phase 5 defueling continues with JTF-RH unpacking the fuel pipelines, and removing residual fuel located in the surge lines and portions of the tank gallery. JTF-RH will complete its defueling mission at the end of Phase 5, which is projected to end no later than March 31, 2024. (DoD photo by U.S. Army Sgt. ZaBarr Jones)
