Each of the five scoping meetings will
consist of an informal, open house

staffed by DON representatives. Meeting
details will be announced in local
newspapers. Additional information
concerning meeting times is available
on the EIS and OEIS Web page located
at: https://www.AFTTEIS.com.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Naval Facilities Engineering Command,
Code EV22LL (AFTT EIS/OEIS Project
Manager), 6506 Hampton Boulevard,
Norfolk, VA 23508–1278, telephone
number 757–322–4645.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
DON’s proposed action is to conduct
training and testing activities that
include the use of active sonar and
explosives within the at-sea portions of
existing range complexes and on RDT&E
ranges within the AFTT study area
(including the area where the Undersea
Warfare Training Range will be used).
The boundary of the AFTT study area
begins seaward from the mean high
water line and moves east to the 45
degree west longitude line, generally
following the 2nd Fleet area of
responsibility (except for the Arctic).
The AFTT study area covers
approximately 2.6 million square
nautical miles of ocean area, which
includes Navy operating areas (sea
space) and warning areas (airspace).
While the majority of Navy training and
many testing activities take place within
operating and warning areas and/or on
RDT&E ranges, some activities, such as
sonar maintenance and gunnery
exercises, are conducted concurrent
with normal transits and occur outside
of operating and warning areas.
The following DON training range
complexes fall within the AFTT study
area: Northeast Range Complex, Virginia
Capes (VACAPES) Range Complex,
Navy Cherry Point Range Complex,
Jacksonville Range Complex, Key West
Range Complex, and Gulf of Mexico
(GOMEX) Range Complex. The DON
RDT&E ranges in the AFTT study area
include: Naval Undersea Warfare Center
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 220001
Newport, Newport, RI; Naval Surface
Warfare Center (NSWC) Panama City
Division, FL; and NSWC Carderock
Division South Florida Test Facility, FL.
The piers and channels in the AFTT
study area are located at the following
Navy ports, Naval Shipyards, and Navy
contractor shipyards: Bath Iron Works,
ME; Portsmouth Naval Shipyard, ME;
Electric Boat and Naval Base Groton,
CT; Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding—
Newport News, VA; Norfolk Naval Base,
VA; Norfolk Naval Shipyard, VA; Naval
Amphibious Base Little Creek, VA;
Naval Base Kings Bay, GA; Naval Base
Mayport, FL; Port Canaveral, FL;
Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding—
Avondale, LA; Northrop Grumman
Shipbuilding—Ingalls, MS; and, Halter
Moss Point Shipyard, MS.
The proposed action is to conduct
military training and testing activities in
the AFTT study area. The purpose of the
proposed action is to achieve and
maintain Fleet Readiness to meet the
requirements of Title 10 of the U.S.
Code, which requires the DON to
‘‘maintain, train, and equip combatready naval forces capable of winning
wars, deterring aggression, and
maintaining freedom of the seas.’’ The
proposed action would also allow the
DON to attain compliance with
applicable environmental
authorizations, consultations, and other
associated environmental requirements,
including those associated with new
platforms and weapons systems, for
example, the Low Frequency AntiSubmarine Warfare capability
associated with the Littoral Combat
Ship.
The alternatives that will be analyzed
in the AFTT EIS and OEIS meet the
purpose and need of the proposed
action by providing the level of training
that meets the requirements of Title 10,
thereby ensuring that Sailors and
Marines are properly prepared for
operational success. Similarly, the level
of RDT&E proposed for the AFTT study
area is necessary to ensure that Sailors
and Marines deployed overseas have the
latest proven military equipment.
Accordingly, the alternatives to be
addressed in the AFTT EIS and OEIS
are:
1. No Action—The No Action
Alternative continues baseline training
and testing activities and force structure
requirements as defined by existing
DON environmental planning
documents. This documentation
includes the Records of Decision for
Atlantic Fleet Active Sonar Training
(AFAST), VACAPES, Navy Cherry
Point, Jacksonville, and NSWC Panama
City Division, and the Preferred
PO 00000
Frm 00026
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Alternative for the GOMEX Draft EIS
and OEIS.
2. Alternative 1—This alternative
consists of the No Action alternative,
plus expansion of the overall study area
boundaries, and updates and/or
adjustments to locations and tempo of
training and testing activities. This
alternative also includes changes to
training and testing requirements
necessary to accommodate force
structure changes, and the development
and introduction of new vessels,
aircraft, and weapons systems.
3. Alternative 2—Alternative 2
consists of Alternative 1 with an
increased tempo of training and testing
activities. This alternative also allows
for additional range enhancements and
infrastructure requirements.
Resource areas that will be addressed
due to the potential effects from the
proposed action include, but are not
limited to: Ocean and biological
resources (including marine mammals
and threatened and endangered
species); air quality; airborne
soundscape; cultural resources;
transportation; regional economy;
recreation; and public health and safety.
The scoping process will be used to
identify community concerns and local
issues to be addressed in the EIS and
OEIS. Federal agencies, state agencies,
local agencies, Native American Indian
Tribes and Nations, the public, and
interested persons are encouraged to
provide comments to the DON to
identify specific issues or topics of
environmental concern that the
commenter believes the DON should
consider. All comments provided orally
or in writing at the scoping meetings
will receive the same consideration
during EIS and OEIS preparation.
Written comments must be postmarked
no later than September 14, 2010, and
should be mailed to: Naval Facilities
Engineering Command, Atlantic, Code:
EV22LL (AFTT EIS/OEIS Project
Manager), 6506 Hampton Boulevard,
