SUMMARY: The Department of the Army
announces the availability of the Record
of Decision (ROD) for the Final
Supplemental Programmatic
Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS)
identifying the potential environmental
effects of changing land and airspace
use at Fort bliss to support evolving
changes in missions and units and
support Army Transformation,
Integrated Global Presence and Basing
Strategy (IGPBS), Base Realignment and
Closure (BRAC), the Army Campaign
Plan, and other Army initiatives.
The Final SEIS supplements the Fort
Bliss, Texas and New Mexico, Mission
Master Plan Programmatic
Environmental Impact Statement (PEIS),
for which a Record of Decision was
signed in 2001.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Proposed Action (Alternative 4) is
selected in this ROD. The Proposed
Action changes land use in the Main
Cantonment Area to support units
assigned to Fort Bliss under BRAC, and
in the Fort Bliss Training Complex to
support construction of live-fire ranges
and designation of off-road maneuver
space needed to train those solders to
doctrinal standards. This alternative
opens to heavy off-road vehicle
maneuver 352,000 acres in the Tularosa
Basin portion of McGregor Range, for a
total off-road vehicle maneuver space of
687,000 acres, and changes land use in
the Main Cantonment to accommodate
increases in military personnel.
Selection of this alternative also
accommodates units and missions in
addition to the BRAC package, and
maintains flexibility to meet future
requirements. Those portions of
McGregor Range outside the Tularosa
Basin, specifically Otero Mesa and the
Sacramento Mountain foothills, will not
experience changes in land use.
The final SEIS analyzed impacts from
the No Action Alternative and four
action alternatives in 14 resource areas;
land use, Main Cantonment Area
infrastructure, airspace use and
management, earth resources, air
quality, water resources, biological
resources, cultural resources, noise,
safety, hazardous materials and items of
special concern, socioeconomics, and
environmental justice. The affected
environment included the Fort Bliss
Main Cantonment Area, the Fort Bliss
Training Complex, and adjacent off-post
areas that may be affected by the
proposed changes on Fort Bliss. The
region of influence (ROI) varies among
resource topics but generally consists of
a three-county area comprised of El Paso
˜
County in Texas and Dona Ana and
Otero Counties in New Mexico.
From a land use perspective, the No
Action Alternative would be the
environmentally preferable alternative.
However, it would not meet the Army’s
need to provide training to doctrinal
standards to the units stationed at Fort
bliss. After the No Action Alternative,
Alternative 1 is environmentally
preferable in comparison to the other
action alternatives because it would
limit the effects of off-road vehicle
maneuver training on McGregor Range

to a smaller area than the other three
alternatives. It would also avoid impacts
to grazing in the north Tularosa Basin
portion of McGregor Range, as well as
impacts to grasslands in the southeast
training areas.
