Notice of Availability of Record of Decision for the Northwest 
Training and Testing Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement/
Overseas Environmental Impact Statement

AGENCY: Department of the Navy, DoD.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The United States Department of the Navy (DON), after 
carefully weighing the operational and environmental consequences of 
the Proposed Action, is announcing its decision to continue training 
and testing activities as identified in Alternative 1 in the Northwest 
Training and Testing (NWTT) Final Supplemental Environmental Impact 
Statement/Overseas Environmental Impact Statement (EIS/OEIS), dated 
September 2020. Under Alternative 1, the U.S. Navy will be able to 
fully meet current and future training and testing requirements.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Alternative 1 is the DON's preferred 
alternative and includes changes in the types and tempo of training and 
testing activities at sea and in associated airspace to meet current 
and future military readiness requirements. Alternative 1 reflects a 
representative year of training and testing activities to account for 
the natural fluctuation of training cycles, testing programs, and 
deployment schedules that generally limit the maximum level of training 
and testing from occurring in the reasonably foreseeable future. The 
complete text of the Record of Decision (ROD) is available on the 
project website at www.NWTTEIS.com, along with the September 2020 NWTT 
Final Supplemental EIS/OEIS and supporting documents. Single copies of 
the ROD are available upon request by contacting: Naval Facilities 
Engineering Command Northwest, Attn: NWTT Supplemental EIS/OEIS Project 
Manager, 3730 N Charles Porter Avenue, Building 385, Oak Harbor, WA 
98278-3500.

    Dated: September 24, 2021.
J.M. Pike,
Commander, Judge Advocate General's Corps, U.S. Navy, Federal Register 
Liaison Officer.
