SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The IPBC would be used to train and test infantry platoons and other units on the skills necessary to conduct collective (group) tactical movement techniques, and to detect, identify, engage, and defeat stationary and moving infantry and armor targets in a tactical array. Soldiers would engage targets with small arms, machine guns, and other weapon systems as part of live-fire exercises. This includes air-ground integration where Soldiers maneuvering on the IPBC can coordinate air support. In addition to live-fire, the range would also be used for training with subcaliber and/or laser training devices. This type of training is mission essential for Soldiers to be prepared to encounter threats during combat operations overseas. The Draft PEIS included a programmatic level analysis of future modernization of ranges, training and support infrastructure, and the Cantonment Area. A number of factors caused the Army to reconsider the programmatic portion of this analysis: the highly uncertain nature of the future projects in the modernization program, a rapidly changing austere fiscal environment, as well as the many public and agency comments received on the Draft PEIS. After thorough consideration of all of these factors, Army leadership has decided to defer analysis of the programmatic portion of the EIS. In the 2011 Draft PEIS, the IPBC was analyzed as part of a larger Infantry Platoon Battle Area (IPBA), which included a Military Operations on Urban Terrain (MOUT) Assault Course and a live-fire Shoothouse facility. Due to funding constraints, the MOUT Assault Course and Shoothouse facility are no longer part of the project. Further NEPA analysis will occur when funding becomes available for these projects and sites are identified. A third IPBC alternative analyzed in the Draft PEIS, Southwest of Range 20, was subsequently found not to be operationally feasible and it was eliminated from the Final EIS. The Record of Decision will be published no sooner than 30 days after publication of the notice of availability of the Final EIS in the Federal Register by the U.S. Environmental Protection erowe on DSK2VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES ADDRESSES: VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:46 Apr 25, 2013 Jkt 229001 Agency. The Record of Decision will include final mitigation measures the Army will adopt.
