SUMMARY: The United States Department of the Navy (DoN), after 
carefully weighing the environmental consequences of the proposed 
actions, announces its decision to construct and operate the Medical 
Facilities Development (MFD) at Naval Support Activity (NSA) Bethesda, 
Bethesda, MD. DoN also announces its decision to construct and operate 
the expansion of the Uniformed Services University of the Health 
Sciences (USU or the University Expansion) at NSA Bethesda. The DoN has 
decided to implement the preferred alternatives for the MFD and 
University Expansion, as described in the MFD and University Expansion 
Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) dated July 2013. The 
preferred alternatives are also the Environmentally Preferable 
Alternatives.
    The preferred alternative for the MFD will fully meet the 
Congressional mandate in the Fiscal Year 2010 National Defense 
Authorization Act to achieve the new statutory world-class standards 
for military medicine at the Walter Reed National Military Medical 
Center (WRNMMC) by providing enduring medical facilities commensurate 
in quality, capability and condition as those provided by the 2005 Base 
Realignment and Closure investment. The preferred alternative for the 
University Expansion will provide adequate education and research space 
to meet Military Health System commitments to deliver training and 
post-graduate level education to the military medical community and 
enable USU to serve as the core academic health research center at 
WRNMMC. The proposed actions will enhance and support but not add to 
the missions of the installation, medical center, or the USU.
