(a) FINDINGS.—In light of the initial report of the 
Department of Defense submitted pursuant to section 
2684a(g) of title 10, United States Code, and of the 
RAND Corporation report entitled ‘‘The Thin Green Line: 
An Assessment of DoD’s Readiness and Environmental 
Protection Initiative to Buffer Installation Encroach-
ment’’, Congress makes the following findings:

installations, ranges, and airspace pose a continuing 
and significant threat to the readiness of the Armed 
Forces. 
(2) The Range Sustainability Program (RSP) 
of the Department of Defense, and in particular the 
Readiness and Environmental Protection Initiative 
(REPI) involving agreements pursuant to section 
2684a of title 10, United States Code, have been ef-
fective in addressing this threat to readiness with re-
gard to a number of important installations, ranges, 
and airspace. 
(3) The opportunities to take effective action to 
protect installations, ranges, and airspace from en-
croachment is in many cases transient, and delay in 
taking action will result in either higher costs or per-
manent loss of the opportunity effectively to address 
encroachment. 
(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—It is the sense of Con-
gress that the Department of Defense should— 
(1) develop additional policy guidance on the 
further implementation of the Readiness and Envi-
ronmental Protection Initiative (REPI), to include 
additional emphasis on protecting biodiversity and 
on further refining procedures;

full advantage of the authorities provided by section 
2684a of title 10, United States Code, in addressing 
encroachment adversely affecting, or threatening to 
adversely affect, the installations, ranges, and mili-
tary airspace of the department.

retary of Defense shall review Chapter 6 of the initial re-
port submitted to Congress under section 2684a(g) of title
