Relocation of Marine Corps Air Station Futenma
There have been various plans for the relocation of Marine Corps Air Station Futenma, a United States Marine Corps base located within the urban area of Ginowan City (pop. 93,661) in Okinawa, Japan. Early plans proposed to move the base off the island of Okinawa and later proposals specified within the island.

As of August 2015, the Japanese government has agreed to halt construction activities temporarily while talks with Okinawan officials continued. US sources insist nothing about their approach has changed.
