consequences of the proposed action, announces its decision to provide 
unimpeded access to the Laurelwood housing area located at Naval 
Weapons Station (NWS) Earle, Colts Neck, New Jersey, as required by its 
agreement with the developer of the Laurelwood housing area. Unimpeded 
access will be accomplished through implementing Alternative Alignment

preferred alternative, which will access NWS Earle via a new entrance

Laurelwood housing area. This will require the issuance of an easement 
to the Laurelwood developer over the path of the access road, 
construction of the access road, construction of a bridge over 
Esperance Road, and installation of perimeter fencing.
