Environmental Policy Act, the Marine Corps has prepared and filed with
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency the Draft Environmental Impact

A public hearing to inform the public of the DEIS findings and to

The public hearing will be conducted by the Marine Corps. Federal,
State, and local agencies and interested parties are invited and urged
to be present or represented at the hearing. Oral statements will be
heard and transcribed by a stenographer; however, to assure accuracy of
the record, all statements should be submitted in writing. All
statements, both oral and written, will become part of the public
record on this study. Equal weights will be given to both oral and
written statements.
In the interest of available time, each speaker will be asked to
limit their oral comments to five minutes. If longer statements are to
be presented, they should be summarized at the public hearing and
submitted in writing either at the hearing or mailed to the address

The DEIS has been distributed to various Federal, State, and local

In accordance with the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act of
1990 and the specific base closure and realignment decisions approved
by the president and accepted by Congress in September 1995, the
proposed action is the realignment of Marine Corps Air Station Camp
Pendleton. The proposed action relocates aircraft and associated assets
from MCAS Tustin and MCAS El Toro, which are closing, to MCAS Camp
Pendleton.
Alternatives considered in the DEIS include: no action, development
alternatives (alternative site configurations) at MCAS Camp Pendleton,
and use of other military installations. The proposed action will have
impacts on noise, endangered species, cultural assets, and air quality.
