  1. White Sands Missile Range, Fort Bliss and Holloman Air Force Base Joint Land Use Study Joint Policy and Technical Committee Meeting July 26, 2012 Department of Defense Office of Economic Adjustment Compatible Use Program Overview

  2. OEA Mission Statement • The Office of Economic Adjustment (OEA), in coordination with other resources of the Federal Government, will assist states and communities to: • Plan and carry out local adjustment strategies; • Engage the private sector in order to plan and undertake community economic development and base redevelopment; and • Work with the Military Departments in support of DoD’s missions.

  3. Compatible Use: A DoD Concern • Military installations and ranges play vital role in national defense in support of military testing, training and base support operations • Military installations serve as major economic engines accounting for thousands of jobs, billions in economic activity • Encroachment pressures from incompatible civilian development create restrictions on use of installations, ranges and training corridors • Encroachment can also threaten public safety exposing population to artillery fire, aircraft noise, dust, and even accidents

  4. Compatible Use Issues • Urban Growth • Endangered Species and Critical Habitat • Air- and Land-Space Restrictions • UXO and Munitions • Frequency Encroachment • Airborne Noise • Maritime Sustainability • Air Quality • Cultural Resources • Clean Water • Wetlands • Others

  5. APZ-I APZ-II Impacts to Training and Operations • Reduces usage days • Prohibits certain operational, training and testing events • Reduces range access • Segments training and reduces realism • Limits new technologies • Restricts flight altitudes • Inhibits new tactics development • Complicates night and all weather operations and training • Reduces live fire proficiency • Increases personnel tempo • Increases costs or risks

  6. What is a Joint Land Use Study (JLUS)? • Cooperative land use planning effort designed to promote community growth and development that is compatible with an installation’s training and operational missions • Initiated upon a Military Department nomination • Local community conducts JLUS in cooperation with local military installation • Raises State and local government awareness and interest to support the long-term sustainability and operability of military installations

  7. JLUS: Implementation Tools and Actions • Real estate disclosure • Comprehensive plan • Zoning or zoning overlay districts • Joint Airport Zoning Board • Modify Capital Improvement Plan • Subdivision and site plan regulations • Building code regulations (sound attenuation) • Transfer/purchase of development rights • Purchase avigation/buffer easements • Land acquisition/lease • Relocation of Interstate Highway Interchange • Incentives / support for agriculture and ranching operations and open space
