The Navy manages its land, air, and sea ranges, facilities, and natural resources
as integrated training range complexes to be able to meet its current and future
requirements while protecting natural and cultural resources and minimizing effects
to the environment.
As responsible environmental stewards, the U.S. Navy is concerned about the potential
effects of its operations on the environment and is committed to complying with all
applicable federal laws, regulations, and policies. The Navy spends millions of dollars
each year on research to better understand the potential effects of its activities on
the environment to help ensure that Navy policy and compliance are based on real science.
