DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

Department of the Navy 

Notice of Intent To Prepare an 

Environmental Impact Statement for 

Military Training Activities at the Naval 

Weapons Systems Training Facility 

Boardman, OR, and To Announce 

Public Scoping Meetings 

AGENCY: Department of the Navy, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Pursuant to section 102(2)(c) 

of the National Environmental Policy 

Act of 1969, as implemented by the 

Council on Environmental Quality 

regulations (40 CFR Parts 1500–1508), 

the Department of the Navy (DoN) 

announces its intent to prepare an 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

to evaluate the potential environmental 

effects of continuing training activities 

on and increasing usage of the Naval 

Weapons Systems Training Facility 

(NWSTF) Boardman, Oregon. 

DATES AND ADDRESSES: Two public 

scoping meetings will be held to receive 

oral and/or written comments on 

environmental concerns that should be 

addressed in the EIS. The public 

scoping meetings will be held on the 

following dates and times, and at the 

following locations: 

1. Wednesday, October 27, 2010, 5 

p.m.–8 p.m., at Port of Morrow 

Conference Center, Riverfront Room, 2 

Marine Drive, Boardman, OR 97818; 

2. Thursday, October 28, 2010, 5 

p.m.–8 p.m., at Hermiston Conference 

Center, Rotary Room, 415 S. Highway 

395, Hermiston, OR 97838. 

Each scoping meeting will consist of 

an informal, open house session with 

information stations staffed by DoN and 

National Guard representatives. Details 

of the meeting locations and times will 

be announced in local newspapers. 

Additional information concerning 

meeting times will be available on the 

EIS Web page located at: http:// 

www.NWSTFBoardmanEIS.com. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mrs. 

Amy Burt, Naval Facilities Engineering 

Command, Northwest, 1101 Tautog 

Circle, Suite 203, Silverdale, 

Washington 98315–1101, Attn: NWSTF 

Boardman Project Manager, Code 

EV1.AB. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DoN’s 

proposed action includes range 

enhancements and changes to training 

activities, capacities, and facilities as 

they currently exist on NWSTF 

Boardman. The Proposed Action would 

result in selectively focused but critical 

range enhancements and increases in 

DoN and Oregon National Guard 

training that are necessary to ensure 

NWSTF Boardman supports military 

training and readiness objectives. 

The overall strategic mission of 

NWSTF Boardman is to support naval 

and joint services operational readiness 

by providing a suitable range within the 

geographical vicinity for Commander, 

U.S. Pacific Fleet and Oregon National 

Guard forces in the northwest. 

The EIS study area consists of NWSTF 

Boardman airspace, Military Operating 

Area and Restricted Airspace totaling 

approximately 500 square miles, and 

47,432 acres of land within the 

boundaries of NWSTF Boardman. 

NWSTF Boardman is rectangular 

shaped oriented from north to south, 

approximately 6 miles by 12 miles in 

size, and is situated 2.5 miles south of 

the town of Boardman and the Columbia 

River, and southwest of Umatilla, 

Oregon. 

The purpose of the Proposed Action 

is to: (1) Ensure that NWSTF Boardman 

continues to support critical military 

training activities in a realistic and costeffective manner; (2) Achieve and 

maintain military readiness using 

NWSTF Boardman to support and 

conduct current, emerging, and future 

training and research, development, test 

and evaluation (RDT&E) activities; and 

(3) Upgrade and modernize NWSTF 

Boardman’s existing capabilities to 

address shortfalls in available training 

range capabilities in the Pacific 

Northwest. 

The Proposed Action is needed to 

provide a training environment 

consisting of range areas, facilities and 

instrumentation with the capacity and 

capabilities to fully support required 

training tasks for military units. In this 

regard, NWSTF Boardman furthers the 

military’s execution of its roles and 

responsibilities under United States 

Code (U.S.C.) Title 10 (federal military) 

and U.S.C. Title 32 (State National 

Guard). To comply with its Title 10 and 

32 mandates, the military needs to 

maintain current levels of military 

readiness by improving training at 

NWSTF Boardman, accommodate 

possible future increases in operational 

training and force structure changes, 

and maintain the long-term viability of 

NWSTF Boardman as a military training 

and testing area. 

Under the No Action Alternative, 

training activities and major range 

events would continue at current levels. 

The DoN and National Guard training 

activities currently conducted on 

NWSTF Boardman, presented as the No 

Action Alternative, have been ongoing 

at present levels and frequencies for 

approximately 10 years. 

Under Alternative 1, NWSTF 

Boardman would support an increase in 

training activities to include force 

structure changes associated with the 

introduction of new weapon systems, 

vehicles, and aircraft, in addition to 

accommodating training activities 

currently conducted on the range. 

Alternative 1 would also include the 

implementation of range enhancements 

to allow NWSTF Boardman to comply 

with DoN and National Guard 

requirements to enable military 

personnel to qualify on weapon 

systems. These required range 

enhancements could include the 

construction of a Multi-Purpose 

Machine Gun Range, a Digital MultiPurpose Training Range, a Convoy Live 

Fire training range, a Demolition 

Training Range, construction of a joint 

range administration/Unmanned Aerial 

System (UAS) maintenance building, 

UAS landing strip, and the opening of 

a second target area for air to ground 

bombing exercises. 

Alternative 2 consists of all elements 

of Alternative 1 plus the addition of a 

third target area, a helicopter landing 

zone, a second Convoy Live Fire range, 

four mortar pads, and a separate jointuse administrative facility. Alternative 2 

also includes an increase in training 

activities associated with these 

additional range enhancements. 

Environmental issues that will be 

addressed in the EIS, as applicable, 

include but are not limited to the 

following: Air quality, airspace, 

biological resources, including 

threatened and endangered species, 

cultural resources, water resources, 

geology and soils, hazardous materials 

and waste, health and safety, noise, 

socioeconomics, and transportation. 

The DoN is initiating the scoping 

process to identify community concerns 

and local issues that will be addressed 

in the EIS. Federal, state and local 

agencies, Federally Recognized Native 

American Tribes, the public, and all 

interested persons are encouraged to 

provide oral, written, or electronic 

comments to the DoN to identify 

specific environmental issues or topics 

of environmental concern that the 

commenter believes the DoN should 

consider. All comments, electronic,

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 192 / Tuesday, October 5, 2010 / Notices 61453 

written or provided orally at the scoping 

meetings, will receive the same 

consideration during EIS preparation. 

Written comments on the scope of the 

EIS should be postmarked no later than 

November 15, 2010. Comments may be 

mailed to Mrs. Amy Burt, Naval 

Facilities Engineering Command,
