While we respect the need to train our troops, we believe the Marine Corps must clearly demonstrate a need for the expansion of the base. If such expansion is warranted then we support, in general, expansion in an eastward direction from the base.

Eastward expansion presents the least conflict with multiple use of the public lands in the Johnson Valley area, and further, has the least impact on local communities and their residential and economic interests.

We will participate actively in the continuing development of alternatives for the proposed expansion as necessary.
