BILLING CODE 5001–06–M 

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

Department of the Army 

Draft Environmental Impact Statement 

for the Renewal of Special Use Permit 

for Military Activities on the De Soto 

National Forest and Implementation of 

Installation Mission Support Activities 

at Camp Shelby, MS 

AGENCY: Department of the Army, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice of availability. 

SUMMARY: This Draft Environmental 

Impact Statement (DEIS) has been 

prepared by National Guard Bureau 

(NGB) and the United States Department 

of Agriculture—Forest Service (USDA–

FS). NGB is the lead agency and the 

USDA–FS is serving as a cooperating 

agency in the development of this DEIS 

for the renewal of the current Special 

Use Permit (SUP) that authorizes 

military training activities at Camp 

Shelby Joint Forces Training Center. 

DATES: The public comment period for 

the DEIS will end 45 days after 

publication of an NOA in the Federal 

Register by the U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments or 

questions regarding the DEIS may be 

forwarded to Major Danny Blanton, 

Public Affairs Officer, Joint Forces 

Headquarters, Mississippi National 

Guard, P.O. Box 5027, Jackson, MS 

39296–5027. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Major Danny Blanton, Public Affairs 

Officer, Joint Forces Headquarters, 

Mississippi National Guard, at (601) 

313–6349. The alternate point of contact 

for this action is Lieutenant Colonel 

Robert A. Piazza, Mississippi Army 

National Guard, Director Environmental 

Program at (610) 313–6228. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This DEIS 

discusses in-depth two alternatives: The 

Preferred Alternative and the No-Action 

Alternative. Under the Preferred 

Alternative, the Mississippi National 

Guard (MSNG) proposes the renewal of 

the USDA–FS SUP for a 20-year 

timeframe and authorizes current 

activities and mission requirements to 

continue on State of Mississippi, DoD, 

and National Forest lands. This 

alternative will help meet the Army 

requirements associated with the 

Proposed Action by constructing 

various new ranges and facilities at 

Camp Shelby and allowing for the 

continuation of necessary maintenance, 

repair, and rehabilitation of the 

infrastructure at Camp Shelby. The No 

Action Alternative would authorize the 

renewal of the SUP for a 10-year 

timeframe (same as previous SUP) and 

military activities would continue as 

currently permitted. This alternative 

would not authorize the proposed 

construction of new ranges and facilities 

and improved management practices. 

Other alternatives considered but 

eliminated from detailed study are 

addressed in the DEIS. The potential for 

significant impacts exists for both 

alternatives, however with the 

implementation of the ongoing and 

proposed mitigation and monitoring 

measures, the unavoidable adverse 

impacts can be mitigated to an 

acceptable level. Under the preferred
