Welcome to the SOCAL Range Complex EIS/OEIS Website

Welcome to the Navy’s official Web site for the Southern California (SOCAL) Range Complex Environmental Impact Statement/Oversees Environmental Impact Statement (EIS/OEIS). This EIS/OEIS examines the potential environmental effects of the Navy’s Proposed Action and alternatives to that action. The Navy is the lead agency for this EIS/OEIS. The SOCAL Range Complex is an area of about 120,000 square nautical miles off the coast of southern California. The Proposed Action consists of increases in the number of training operations, changes in the Navy’s force structure (such as new weapons systems), and additional enhancements in the range facilities. The Proposed Action is necessary for the SOCAL Range Complex to support current, emerging, and future training operations and thus achieve and maintain Fleet readiness.


The Draft EIS/OEIS is available for public review and comment!

 

The SOCAL Range Complex is the principal training range for aviation, surface, submarine, amphibious, and special warfare units located in Southern California.
