Notice of Availability of Record of Decision for the Northwest
Training and Testing Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement/
Overseas Environmental Impact Statement
AGENCY: Department of the Navy, DoD.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The United States Department of the Navy (DON), after
carefully weighing the operational and environmental consequences of
the Proposed Action, is announcing its decision to continue training
and testing activities as identified in Alternative 1 in the Northwest
Training and Testing (NWTT) Final Supplemental Environmental Impact
Statement/Overseas Environmental Impact Statement (EIS/OEIS), dated
September 2020. Under Alternative 1, the U.S. Navy will be able to
fully meet current and future training and testing requirements.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Alternative 1 is the DON's preferred
alternative and includes changes in the types and tempo of training and
testing activities at sea and in associated airspace to meet current
and future military readiness requirements. Alternative 1 reflects a
representative year of training and testing activities to account for
the natural fluctuation of training cycles, testing programs, and
deployment schedules that generally limit the maximum level of training
and testing from occurring in the reasonably foreseeable future. The
complete text of the Record of Decision (ROD) is available on the
project website at <a href="http://www.NWTTEIS.com">www.NWTTEIS.com</a>, along with the September 2020 NWTT
Final Supplemental EIS/OEIS and supporting documents. Single copies of
the ROD are available upon request by contacting: Naval Facilities
Engineering Command Northwest, Attn: NWTT Supplemental EIS/OEIS Project
Manager, 3730 N Charles Porter Avenue, Building 385, Oak Harbor, WA
98278-3500.
Dated: September 24, 2021.
J.M. Pike,
Commander, Judge Advocate General's Corps, U.S. Navy, Federal Register
Liaison Officer.
