into a Multi-Year Agreement (MYA) to 

acquire long-term interests in lands 

within the vicinity of Naval Air Station, 

Oceana, Virginia, and Naval Auxiliary 

Landing Field, Fentress, Chesapeake, 

Virginia. The goal of the MYA is to 

acquire real property interests in the 

vicinity of the Installations for purposes 

that are consistent with their land and 

natural resources conservation 

objectives, preservation goals, and to 

prevent encroachment and land 

development that is incompatible with 

the mission of the Installations.

an Installation in exchange for property 

interests to be acquired under the terms 

of an encroachment protection 

agreement executed in accordance with

convey approximately 82 acres of excess 

land, referred to as Marshview, to the 

City in exchange for a restrictive 

easement interest over approximately 

46.59 acres of City-owned land located 

within the area of interest identified in 

the MYA as ideal for encroachment 

protection. The Marshview property 

will be conveyed in fee with deed 

restrictions limiting the property’s 

future use to a public park with passive 

recreational use only. The restrictive 

easement to be acquired by the Navy 

will limit the type and amount of 

development, as well as the activities 

that may be conducted on the land.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: MCAS 

Beaufort is a long established Air 

Station, consisting of some 6,900 acres, 

70 miles southwest of Charleston, and 

four miles from downtown Beaufort, SC, 

on Highway 21. The Laurel Bay housing 

area, located four miles from the base 

proper, is a 1,062-acre tract, of which 

691.06 acres are leased to the housing 

privatization contractor. The majority of 

the leased tract is improved with 

residential and related ancillary 

improvements complete with paved 

streets and infrastructure typical of a 

military housing development. 

A 45-acre and an 82-acre parcel in the 

northeast of the housing area are 

undeveloped, vacant, and excess to 

Navy and Department of Defense 

requirements. The Navy proposes to 

convey the excess land in exchange for 

perpetual restrictive easements over 

other lands within MCAS Beaufort’s Air 

Installation Compatible Use Zone to 

limit encroachment and other 

constraints on the mission. Title 10, 

United States Code, Section 2869 

authorizes the Navy to convey excess 

property at an installation in exchange 

for property interests to be acquired 

under the terms of an encroachment 

protection agreement executed in 

accordance with Title 10, United States 

Code, Section 2684a. 

The Navy executed an encroachment 

protection agreement with the County of 

Beaufort on September 28, 2006. In 

2008, The Beaufort County Open Land 

Trust was added to the agreement as a 

full party to the agreement with the 

authority to fulfill all or part of the 

County’s obligations. The stated 

objectives of the agreement are to limit 

development that is incompatible with 

the mission of MCAS Beaufort and 

conservation objectives around the 

installation, by acquiring interests in 

certain real property located in the 

vicinity of MCAS Beaufort. 

The Navy proposes to exchange the 

127 acres in Laurel Bay for a perpetual 

restrictive easement interest over 

approximately 259 acres of land that is 

part of property known as Clarendon 

Farms. The 259 acres are located in an 

area that has been identified for 

acquisition in the encroachment 

protection agreement. The restrictive 

easements to be acquired by the Navy 

will limit the type and amount of 

development, as well as incompatible 

activities that may be conducted on the 

land.
