Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 and regulations implemented by the Council on Environmental Quality, the Department of the Navy (DoN) has prepared and filed with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)/Overseas EIS (OEIS) for public release on June 30, 2017, to evaluate the potential environmental effects from training and testing activities conducted within the Navy's Atlantic Fleet Training and Testing (AFTT) Study Area. The Study Area is in the western Atlantic Ocean and encompasses the waters along the east coast of North America, the Gulf of Mexico, portions of the Caribbean Sea, Navy pierside locations and port transit channels, waters near civilian ports, and inland waters (e.g., lower Chesapeake Bay). The Study Area covers approximately 2.6 million square nautical miles of ocean area and includes designated Navy operating areas and special use airspace. The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is a Cooperating Agency for the EIS/OEIS. With the filing of the Draft EIS/OEIS, the DoN is initiating a 60- day public comment period and has scheduled five public meetings to receive oral and written comments on the Draft EIS/OEIS. This notice announces the dates and locations of the public meetings for this Draft EIS/OEIS and provides supplementary information about the environmental planning effort. Dates and Addresses: The Draft EIS/OEIS public review period will begin June 30, 2017, and end on August 29, 2017. The Navy will hold five public meetings to inform the public about the Proposed Action and the alternatives under consideration, and to provide an opportunity for the public to comment on the Proposed Action, alternatives, and the adequacy and accuracy of the analysis in the Draft EIS/OEIS. Each of the public meetings will be conducted in an open-house format with informational stations staffed by DoN representatives. These representatives will be available during the public meeting to clarify information related to the Draft EIS/OEIS. Federal, state, and local agencies and officials, and interested groups and individuals are encouraged to provide comments in person at any of the public meetings or in writing during the public comment period. The public meetings will be held between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. on the following dates and at the following locations: 1.

Notice of Public Meetings for the Draft Environmental Impact 
Statement/Overseas Environmental Impact Statement for Navy Atlantic 
Fleet Training and Testing

AGENCY: Department of the Navy, DoD.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 
1969 and regulations implemented by the Council on Environmental 
Quality, the Department of the Navy (DoN) has prepared and filed with 
the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency a Draft Environmental Impact 
Statement (EIS)/Overseas EIS (OEIS) for public release on June 30, 
2017, to evaluate the potential environmental effects from training and 
testing activities conducted within the Navy's Atlantic Fleet Training 
and Testing (AFTT) Study Area.
    The Study Area is in the western Atlantic Ocean and encompasses the 
waters along the east coast of North America, the Gulf of Mexico, 
portions of the Caribbean Sea, Navy pierside locations and port transit 
channels, waters near civilian ports, and inland waters (e.g., lower 
Chesapeake Bay). The Study Area covers approximately 2.6 million square 
nautical miles of ocean area and includes designated Navy operating 
areas and special use airspace.
    The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is a Cooperating 
Agency for the EIS/OEIS.
    With the filing of the Draft EIS/OEIS, the DoN is initiating a 60-
day public comment period and has scheduled five public meetings to 
receive oral and written comments on the Draft EIS/OEIS. This notice 
announces the dates and locations of the public meetings for this Draft

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A Notice of Intent (NOI) to prepare this 
DEIS/OEIS was published in the Federal Register on November 12, 2015, 
(Vol. 80, No. 218, p. 69951). A correction to the Notice of Intent was 
issued on December 1, 2015 and published in the Federal Register (Vol. 
80, No. 230, p.

75076) to update the deadline for comment submission.
    The DoN's Proposed Action is to conduct military readiness training 
activities, and research, development, testing, and evaluation 
activities in the AFTT Study Area. These military readiness activities 
include the use of active sonar and explosives within existing range 
complexes and testing ranges and additional areas located in the 
Atlantic Ocean along the eastern coast of North America, in portions of 
the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico, at Navy pierside locations and 
port transit channels, near civilian ports, and in bays, harbors, and 
inland waterways (e.g., the lower Chesapeake Bay). These military 
readiness activities are generally consistent with those analyzed in 
the AFTT EIS/OEIS completed in December 2013 and are representative of 
training and testing that the Navy has been conducting in the AFTT 
Study Area for decades.
    Potential direct, indirect, cumulative, short-term, long-term, 
irreversible, and irretrievable impacts to the environment from two 
action alternatives and a No Action Alternative are evaluated in the 
Draft EIS/OEIS. Resources evaluated include air quality, sediments and 
water quality, vegetation, invertebrates, marine habitats, fish, marine 
mammals, sea turtles and other marine reptiles, birds and bats, 
cultural resources, socioeconomic resources, and public health and 
safety.
    Based on the results of the analysis, the Navy has requested from 
NMFS a Letter of Authorization (LOA) in accordance with the MMPA to 
authorize the incidental take of marine mammals that may result from 
the implementation of the activities analyzed in the AFTT Draft EIS/
OEIS. In accordance with Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, the 
Navy is consulting with NMFS and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) 
for potential impacts to federally listed species. The Navy will 
complete all required consultations and comply with other applicable 
laws and regulations.
    The Draft EIS/OEIS addresses mitigation measures designed to help 
reduce or avoid potential impacts to marine resources, including new 
mitigation measures that include expanded geographic mitigation areas, 
and updates to procedural mitigation measures. In addition, the Draft 
EIS/OEIS addresses marine species monitoring efforts designed to track 
compliance with authorizations and to investigate the effectiveness of 
mitigation measures implemented as part of the Proposed Action. The 
proposed mitigation measures, including new mitigation measures, would 
be implemented under either alternative in order to maximize the 
mitigation benefits to the environment.
    Mitigation measures are being coordinated through the consultation 
and permitting processes. The DoN will also consider public comments on 
proposed mitigation measures described in this Draft EIS/OEIS.
    Notice of the availability of the draft EIS/OEIS was distributed to 
federal, state, and local agencies, elected officials, and other 
interested individuals and organizations. Copies of the Draft EIS/OEIS
