Which installations might make the top 10 most vulnerable to climate-related events required by the FY18 NDAA? Answer: We are seeing extreme weather events, droughts and sea level rise. Superstorm Sandy caused $50 million in damage at Naval Weapons Station Earle. More recently, Hurricane Irma severely impacted Naval Air Station Key West in 2017 and Hurricane Florence caused $3.6 billion in damage at Camp Lejeune in 2018. Wildfires in 2018 forced the evacuation of Naval Air Station Point Mugu, and burned approximately 1,200 acres at Camp Pendleton. Droughts can have broad implications for base infrastructure, impair testing activities, increase the number of black flag day prohibitions for testing and training, and contribute to heat-related illnesses. Naval Station Norfolk is experiencing sea level rise averaging 4.6mm per year, with a 5.1mm increase in 2017. Sea level rise, land subsidence, and changing ocean currents have resulted in more frequent nuisance flooding and increased vulnerability to coastal storms. The ten most vulnerable Marine Corps installations (in no particular order) are: Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, CA Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, NC Marine Corps Base Camp Butler, Okinawa, Japan Marine Corps Base Hawaii, HI Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, SC Marine Corps Support Facility Blount Island, FL Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, SC Marine Corps Base Quantico, VA Marine Corps Reserve Forces, New Orleans, LA Marine Corps Recruit Depot San Diego, CA The sixteen* most vulnerable Navy installations (in no particular order) are: Naval Air Station Key West, FL Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay, GA Naval Base Guam, Guam Joint Base Pearl Harbor Hickam, HI Wahiawa Annex, HI Naval Magazine Indian Island, WA Naval Base Coronado, CA Naval Base San Diego, CA Joint Base Anacostia Bolling, DC Washington Navy Yard, DC Andersen Air Force Base, Guam Naval Support Facility Indian Head, MD Naval Air Station Oceana, VA Naval Air Station Norfolk, VA Naval Support Activity Hampton Roads, VA Naval Support Activity Hampton Roads – Northwest Annex, VA/NC *Sixteen installations are listed to include those similarly impacted by current and potential future climate events. .

The Chatham Naval Air Station
Chatham Naval Air Station AT THE ATWOOD HOUSE by spencer grey People whose houses are located on Nickerson Neck in Chathamport most likely know that between 1917 and 1922, 36 acres of their neighborhood was the location of one of the Naval Air Stations that were established in the expectation that the United States would most likely be drawn into the war that was causing turmoil in Europe. Germany had deployed a number of their U- Boats throughout the Atlantic Ocean, and they clearly would be a threat to navigation in this area. Before construction of their houses had begun, there were large sections covered with cement, the remains of the floors of the hangars. The base consisted of living quarters for the personnel stationed there, hangars, a boat house, a hospital, repair shops, maintenance buildings and a pigeon loft. The latter was required because radio communications between the planes and the station were not reliable, but pigeons could be counted on to carry messages back to the base. Once the support buildings were in place, four Curtiss R-9s were delivered to the station. A few months later, four Curtiss HS-11 flying boats arrived at the Chatham Depot and were trucked to the base, where they were assembled. Once in service, these planes were used to patrol two areas, one to the north and another to the south, to keep a watch out for U-Boats in the surrounding waters. Because of the real possibility of a crash landing, the planes were equipped with emergency rations, water for three days, a flashlight, a flare pistol with red and green cartridges, a sea anchor, life preservers, a signal book, and local charts.

GAO/NSIAI)-91-W . Far East Office P.O. Box 61087 Honolulu, HI 96860 B-240437 December 31,199O The Honorable Ben Blaz IIouse of Representatives Dear Mr. Blaz: The government of Guam has made numerous requests to the U.S. government to transfer the facilities and land of the Naval Air Station Agana to its control. According to the government of Guam, the transfer is necessary to permit expansion of the International Air Terminal and its operations to accommodate Guam’s growing tourist industry and to promote economic development. This report responds to your request that we evaluate (1) the feasibility of relocating the operations at the Naval Air Station to Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, (2) the estimated costs of such a move, and (3) the potential costs of making enough Navy land available at the Air Station to expand the International Air Terminal without moving all of the Navy’s operations. As agreed with your office, unless you publicly announce its contents earlier, we plan no further distribution of this report until 30 days from the date of this letter. At that time, we will send copies to the Secretaries of Defense, Interior, Transportation and the Navy and Air Force; the Chairmen, House and Senate Committees on Appropriations; the Governor of Guam; and other interested parties.

ANNUAL REPORT 2015 LRNow.org ANNUAL REPORT | 2015 ANNUAL REPORT | 2015 2015 DEAR MEMBERS, VOLUNTEER We had one of my favorite LRNow events on December 6, our Annual APPRECIATION Volunteer Appreciation Event. It was a 70 degree December day and AWARDS we were able to enjoy delicious Lynnhaven oysters and beautiful views of the river from the deck of the Brock Center while we celebrated our amazing volunteers. What could be better! During 2015, Lynnhaven River NOW completed 156 programs, involving 21,500 participants and logged 3,348 volunteer hours. And these numbers may all be lower than they should be because at times we are too busy to remember to add things to the log. But these accomplishments are only possible because of the amazing people who volunteer their time and talents throughout the year to clean up thousands of pounds of marine debris, to replant wetlands and Million Dollar shorelines, to help us build oyster castle projects, to educate the public Volunteer of the Year at our events and other festivals and meetings in the community, to Sid Vaughn serve on our committees and board, to assist with program preparation Oyster Restoration and administrative work, and a thousand other ways that our volunteers October, 2015 “high water” on the Eastern Branch.
