Navy and National Guard to hold public open house scoping
meetings for Naval Weapons Systems Training Facility Boardman
The U.S. Navy, in
cooperation with the N a
tional Guard Bureau and
the Oregon National Guard,
is in the initial stages o f
preparing an Environmental
Impact Statement (E1S) to
evaluate potential environ
mental effects associated
w ith current and proposed
military training and testing
activities at Naval Weapons
System s T raining F acil
ity (NW STF) Boardman.
Two open house scoping
meetings will be held from
5 - 8 p.m. at the following
locations: Port o f Morrow
Conference Center, River
front Room, on October 27;
and Hermiston Conference
Center, Rotary Room, on
October 28.
The Navy and the
National Guard are initiat
ing the scoping process to
identify com m unity con
cerns and issues for analysis
in the EIS. The Navy and
the N a tio n a l G uard are
seeking public in v o lv e
ment and input, which are
fundam ental parts o f the
EIS development under the
N ational E nvironm ental
Policy Act (NEPA). As part
o f the public participation
process, the Navy and the
National Guard will hold
open house meetings in Or
egon to obtain public input
on the scope of the NWSTF
Boardman EIS.
The Navy and the
N ational G uard propose
to im plem ent actions to
increase certain m ilitary
training activities from cur
rent levels to support Navy
and Oregon National Guard
requirements; develop ap
propriate ranges and facili
ties; accommodate mission
requirem ents associated
with force structure changes
and the introduction of new
weapons system s; im ple
ment range enhancements;
and maintain current train
ing activities.
The proposed ac
tion would result in selec
tively focused but critical
enhancements and increas
es in training that are nec
essary to ensure NWSTF
Boardman supports m ili
tary training and readiness
objectives. The NW STF
Boardman EIS will analyze
p o ten tial environm ental
effects from the training
o f U.S. military forces in
military airspace above and
land training areas within
the boundaries o f NWSTF
Boardman.
The public is in
vited to attend open house
style scoping meetings for
information about the pro
posed action and to provide
comments on factors to be
considered in the EIS. The
public may arrive at any
time during each scoping
meeting. There will be no
formal presentation; how
ever, N avy and N ational
Guard representatives will
be on hand to discuss the
project and the proposed
action.
All w ritten com
ments must be postmarked
or received during the com
m ent p e rio d to be c o n
sidered in the Draft EIS.
Written comments must be
postmarked by November
15, 2010, and m ailed to:
