DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Department of the Army
Record of Decision (ROD) for the
Development and Implementation of
Range-Wide Mission and Major
Capabilities at White Sands Missile
Range (WSMR), NM

ACTION: Notice of availability (NOA).

SUMMARY: The Department of the Army
announces the availability of the ROD
that documents and summarizes the
decision to proceed with implementing
the Preferred Alternative (Alternative (1)
identified in the Final Environmental
Impact Statement (FEIS), including the
following proposed land use changes:
expansion of the Main Post and
alterations in authorized uses of range
areas; development of new and
expanded infrastructure throughout the
installation, and increase in the level of
test activities; development of six new
Specialized Areas (four for test
operations and two to support smallscale military training); establishment of
a Land Use and Airspace Strategy Plan
and siting process for facilitating future
tests and training activities at WSMR;
and continued stationing of the
Engineer Battalion and continued Main
Post expansion for the Engineer
Battalion, Brigade Combat Team (BCT)
Modernization, and other ongoing
tenant programs.

The
development and implementation of a
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

land use and airspace plan is intended
to more fully realize and integrate the
capabilities of the WSMR primary
mission (research, development, testing,
and evaluation (RDTE)) with new
training capabilities and potential future
Army stationing decisions. Establishing
new test and training capabilities
requires changing land use designations
within the current installation
boundaries. These changes would
support current and future requirements
and allow off-road vehicle maneuver on
designated portions of the installation.
WSMR will maintain its current RDTE
mission and continue to support testing
objectives of all military services and
Federal agencies.
In addition to consideration of a No
Action Alternative (current test
capabilities and land use designations
with current levels of operations and
activities), the FEIS assessed an
additional alternative (Alternative 2)
that would include all of the actions
included in the Preferred Alternative
plus potential future stationing of a
Heavy Brigade Combat Team (HBCT) (or
comparable unit) by expanding the
cantonment area and construction of
supporting infrastructure and additional
off-road maneuver areas for training on
WSMR, On June 2, 2009, the Secretary
of the Army announced a decision not
to station an HBCT at WSMR in 2013;
however, it was decided to retain the
analysis in this FEIS to support
implementation of potential future
stationing decisions. After reviewing the
alternatives presented in the FEIS, the
Army has made the decision to
implement the Preferred Alternative.
By choosing to implement the
Preferred Alternative in the ROD, the
Army expects direct, indirect, and
cumulative impacts as a result of land
use changes allowing for expanded offroad vehicle use, facilities and
infrastructure construction, expanded
test and training activities, and an
increase in personnel to support
expanded WSMR operations. Impacts
analyzed include a wide range of
environmental resource areas: land use,
air quality, noise, geology and soils,
water resources, biological resources,
cultural resources, socioeconomics,
transportation, utilities, hazardous and
toxic substances, sustainability, and
cumulative environmental effects.
Significant impacts could occur to air
quality, soils, water resources, biological
resources, socioeconomic resources,
transportation, and utilities.
As part of the decision to implement
the Preferred Alternative at WSMR, the
Army will enact environmental
mitigation measures to minimize the
impacts of this decision, including the
PO 00000

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

implementation and continuation of
existing environmental management
programs, use of best management
practices, and other specific mitigation
measures.
The ROD outlines that the Preferred
Alternative reflects the proper balance
of initiatives for the protection of the
environment, funding considerations,
and the need for WSMR to expand its
capabilities as a major range and test
facility base to support future Army
needs associated with Army
Transformation, the Army Campaign
Plan, modernization of the fighting
force, Army Growth and Force Structure
Realignment, Global Defense Posture
Realignment, and other Army
initiatives.

addressing the following issues: (1) Is
this collection necessary to the proper

this information be processed and used
in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate
of burden accurate; (4) how might the

certain qualifications may have a
portion of certain Federal student loans
repaid by the Department based on
qualifying full-time employment for at

least three years. After acceptance into
the program using the Application to
Participate and Service Agreement, the
borrower will be required to submit for
the following three years the Annual
Certification of Employment to continue
to receive this benefit. If the borrower
doesn’t continue to meet the
employment requirements, they will
have to repay any funding received
through this program.
Additional Information: The
Department is requesting an emergency
approval of the Civil Legal Assistance
Attorney Student Loan Repayment
Program Application to Participate and
Service Agreement and Annual
Certification of Employment forms by
June 1, 2010. This is needed to ensure
there is sufficient time to implement the
Agreement and for the Department to
review the applications submitted by
borrowers and make commitments of
funds by the close of the 2010 fiscal
year. Under the regular clearance
process, the Department would not have
an approved Agreement by the end of
the fiscal year end date for which
appropriations have been made. The
Department will submit both of the
forms for the regular clearance process
after receiving emergency approval.
The Application to Participate and
Service Agreement will serve as the
means for an eligible borrower to apply
to participate in the Civil Legal
Assistance Attorney Loan Repayment
Program and to agree to the terms and
conditions of the three-year service
period. The Annual Certification of
Employment will serve as the means for
a borrower who has completed a year of
service as a full-time civil legal
assistance attorney to request loan
repayment and to provide the
Department with verification of the
qualifying employment. The Notice
announcing the program will soon be
finalized and will be published after the
forms have been approved.
As the $5,000,000 in appropriated
funds is for fiscal year 2010 only, the
funds must be committed by the
Department to eligible borrowers by the
close of the fiscal year on September 30,
2010. To allow sufficient time for the
Department to review applications
submitted by borrowers and make
commitments of funds by the close of
the fiscal year, the Department intends
to require borrowers to submit
applications to the Department no later
than August 16, 2010.
The Department requests emergency
clearance of the Application to
Participate and Service Agreement and
Annual Certification of Employment
forms by June 1, 2010.
