What are the locations of the two remote SAR facilities?

• A. Sector San Juan and Sector Guam
• B. Sector Honolulu and Sector Seattle
• C. Sector Miami and Sector Los Angeles
• D. Sector New York and Sector Chicago

Answer: (A)

Remote SAR facilities oversee search-and-rescue operations in distant regions, so the two locations designated for this role are Sector San Juan in Puerto Rico and Sector Guam in Guam. Sector San Juan covers the Caribbean and nearby Atlantic approaches, while Sector Guam handles the Western Pacific area. Having these two remote facilities ensures coordinated, region-specific response and communication close to where incidents occur, outside the continental United States. The other options list sectors that are not the remote facilities assigned to these distant regions.
