DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

Department of the Navy 

Notice of Availability of Record of 

Decision for Medical Facilities 

Development and University 

Expansion at Naval Support Activity 

Bethesda, Bethesda, MD 

AGENCY: Department of the Navy, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The United States Department 

of the Navy (DoN), after carefully 

weighing the environmental 

consequences of the proposed actions, 

announces its decision to construct and 

operate the Medical Facilities 

Development (MFD) at Naval Support 

Activity (NSA) Bethesda, Bethesda, MD. 

DoN also announces its decision to 

construct and operate the expansion of 

the Uniformed Services University of 

the Health Sciences (USU or the 

University Expansion) at NSA Bethesda. 

The DoN has decided to implement the 

preferred alternatives for the MFD and 

University Expansion, as described in 

the MFD and University Expansion 

Final Environmental Impact Statement 

(EIS) dated July 2013. The preferred 

alternatives are also the 

Environmentally Preferable 

Alternatives. 

The preferred alternative for the MFD 

will fully meet the Congressional 

mandate in the Fiscal Year 2010 

National Defense Authorization Act to 

achieve the new statutory world-class 

standards for military medicine at the 

Walter Reed National Military Medical 

Center (WRNMMC) by providing 

enduring medical facilities 

commensurate in quality, capability and 

condition as those provided by the 2005 

Base Realignment and Closure 

investment. The preferred alternative for 

the University Expansion will provide 

adequate education and research space 

to meet Military Health System 

commitments to deliver training and 

post-graduate level education to the 

military medical community and enable 

USU to serve as the core academic 

health research center at WRNMMC. 

The proposed actions will enhance and 

support but not add to the missions of 

the installation, medical center, or the 

USU. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

complete text of the Record of Decision 

(ROD) is available on the project Web 

site at http://www.wrnmmc.capmed.mil/
