SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: White
Sands Missile Range covers
approximately 8,288 km2 (3,200 mi2) of
south-central New Mexico. Proposed
DTRA activities at WSMR have the
potential to significantly impact certain
natural, social, cultural, and economic
resources in the region. The study area
for environmental analyses includes the
Hard Target Defeat Test bed (HTDT),
Permanent High Explosive Test Site
(PHETS), Seismic hardrock In Situ Test
site (SHIST), Alternate SHIST, and
Large Blast/Thermal Simulator (LBTS).
The objective has been to provide a
thorough, comprehensive and PEIS that
will serve as a planning and decisionmaking tool, a public information
source, and a reference for mitigation
tracking concerning DTRA future
activities.
Alternatives consist of modifications
of specific activities; variations in type
and toxicity of simulants; and the No
Action alternative. These alternatives
were developed during preparation of
the Draft PEIS as a result of
environmental analyses of the activities
and public input.
Significant Issues: Certain biologically
diverse areas on White Sands Missile
Range utilized by the Defense Threat
Reduction Agency serve as habitat or
potential habitat for protected floral and
faunal (plant and animal) species. To
date, several locations in the areas
studied have been identified as
important cultural resources. The most
significant are Ground Zero and
McDonald Ranch House, part of Trinity
Site National Historic Landmark located
within the Permanent High Explosive
Test Site boundaries.
Significant issues that are addressed
in the Draft PEIS include:
1. The continued operation and
maintenance of various test structures
used as targets for weapon system
evaluations.
2. Construction of new test structures,
enlargement of existing test beds, and
possible development of new test beds.

3. Testing, operations and
maintenance activities at tunnel targets
in the Capitol Canyon area (HTDT).
4. The use of chemical and biological
simulants in collateral damage tests.
5. Planned improvements to the
DTRA Administrative Park within the
PHETS boundaries.
Public hearings will be held on
Tuesday, February 28, 2006, at the Civic
Center in Alamogordo, NM (800 East
First Street, Alamagordo, NM); on
Wednesday, March 1, 2006, at the
Ramada Palms in Las Cruces, NM (201
E University Ave., Las Cruces, NM); and
on Thursday, March 2, 2006, at the New
Mexico Institute of Mining and
Technology, Macey Center, in Socorro,
NM (801 Leroy Place, Socorro, NM) to
facilitate public input to the PEIS.
All hearings will begin at 5 p.m. with
a 2-hour open house session for the
public to ask questions of subject matter
experts. These sessions will be followed
by the public hearings, beginning at 7
p.m. in order to receive public

Please note any changes to the times,
