Tumon Bay, Guam; (3) November 15,
2024, Dededo Senior Center, 319 Iglesia
Circle, Dededo, Guam. Mr. Mark Wright,
MDA Public Affairs, at 571–231–8212 or
by email to mda.info@mda.mil, may be
contacted regarding the public meetings.
All comments, including names and
addresses, will be included in the
administrative record, but to protect
your personal information, addresses
and phone numbers will be kept
confidential unless release is otherwise
required by law.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr.
Mark Wright, MDA Public Affairs, at
571–231–8212, or by email: mda.info@
mda.mil. For more information,
including a downloadable copy of the
Draft EIS, visit the MDA website:
https://www.mda.mil/system/eiamd.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Proposed
Action and Alternative within the
context of homeland defense, Guam is a
key strategic location for sustaining and
maintaining United States (U.S.)
capabilities, deterring adversaries,
responding to crises, and maintaining a
free and open Indo-Pacific. An attack on
Guam would be considered a direct
attack on the U.S. and would be met
with an appropriate response. Current
U.S. forces are capable of defending
Guam against regional ballistic missile
threats. However, regional missile
threats continue to increase and
advance technologically. The U.S. IndoPacific Command identified a
requirement for a 360-degree EIAMD
capability on Guam as soon as possible
to address the rapid evolution of
adversary missile threats.
In the Draft EIS, MDA, in
coordination with cooperating agencies,
evaluated the potential environmental
impacts associated with the Proposed
Action as well as a No Action
Alternative. The Proposed Action
includes the construction, deployment,
and operations and maintenance of a
comprehensive, persistent, 360-degree
EIAMD system to defend the people,
infrastructure, and territory of Guam
against the rapidly evolving threats of
advanced cruise, ballistic, and
hypersonic missile attacks from regional
adversaries. The proposed system
includes a combination of components
from the MDA, USA, and USNAV,
including missile defense radars,
sensors, missile launchers and missile
interceptors, and command and control
systems. The MDA and USA need to
strategically locate and integrate the
various system components at multiple
sites around Guam. To meet the purpose
and need of the Proposed Action, MDA
and USA have identified 16 proposed
sites on Guam—eight are on Naval Base
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 265001
Guam (NBG), including the NBG
Munitions Site, six are on Andersen Air
Force Base, and two are on Marine
Corps Base Camp Blaz. The proposed
EIAMD system components, associated
support facilities (e.g., maintenance
buildings, entry control, administrative
buildings), and infrastructure (e.g.,
utility infrastructure, fuel storage
facilities, water storage facilities) would
be distributed across the proposed sites.
Additionally, airspace restrictions
would be necessary at sites where radars
would be located to ensure that aircraft
would not encounter high-intensity
radiation fields (HIRF) resulting from
the radar operations that exceed FAA’s
HIRF certification standards for aircraft
electrical and electronic systems.
The environmental analysis in the
Draft EIS addresses the following
environmental resource areas: airspace
management, health and safety, cultural,
terrestrial biological, socioeconomics,
environmental justice and protection of
children, land use and recreation,
transportation, visual quality, utilities,
air quality, climate change, noise, water,
and geology and soils. Mitigation
measures that, if employed, could avoid,
minimize, or mitigate potential
environmental impacts resulting from
the Proposed Action are also analyzed
in the Draft EIS. The Draft EIS only
analyzes peacetime operations.
The MDA and the USA, as the action
proponents, are coordinating and
consulting with appropriate Federal
agencies as required by the Endangered
Species Act, Coastal Zone Management
Act, Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act,
and other laws and regulations
determined to be applicable to the
project. This public comment period
also supports compliance with Section
106 of the NHPA and its implementing
regulations. The USNAV has
determined that the proposed
undertaking shall follow The
Programmatic Agreement Among the
Commander, Navy Region Marianas, the
Advisory Council on Historic
Preservation, and the Guam Historic
Preservation Officer, Regarding Navy
Undertakings on the Island of Guam
(2008) to fulfill Section 106
responsibilities and to avoid, minimize,
and/or mitigate effects on historic
properties. Members of the public are
welcome to provide input.
The MDA intends to publish the Final
EIS in summer 2025 and sign a Record
of Decision following the 30-day Final
EIS waiting period.
Public Participation Invited: The
MDA invites all interested members of
the public, as well as Federal and
territorial agencies, to comment on the
Draft EIS and the project’s potential to
PO 00000

affect historic properties pursuant to
Section 106 of the NHPA. The Draft EIS
is available for public review on the
MDA website at www.mda.mil/system/
eiamd and at the following public
libraries: (1) University of Guam Robert
F. Kennedy Memorial Library, UOG
Station, Mangilao, Guam 96913; (2)
Nieves M. Flores Memorial Library, 254
Martyr St., Agana, Guam 96910.
In support of NEPA and NHPA
Section 106 requirements, the MDA and
cooperating agencies will host three inperson open house public meetings in
Guam. Similar to the scoping meetings
held in August 2023, the open-house
format will include poster stations
staffed by MDA and representatives of
the cooperating agencies who can
provide information and answer
questions about the Proposed Action
and the findings in the Draft EIS.
The public meetings will be held as
follows: (1) November 13, 2024, from
4:00 to 7:00 p.m. Chamorro Standard
Time (ChST) at Hågat Mayor’s Office
Community Center Building 393, Route
