  • Offutt Air Force Base Informational Brochure
    Offutt Air Force Base Informational Brochure In 2015, a JLUS for the Offutt Air Force Base (AFB) was developed through a collaborative planning effort between the cities of Bellevue, Council Bluffs, Glenwood, La Vista, Omaha, Papillion and Plattsmouth, as well Cass, Douglas, Mills, Pottawattamie, and Sarpy Counties. The JLUS program was developed by the Department of Defense (DOD) as a cooperative land use planning effort between affected local government(s) and military installations. The JLUS Program is designed to provide a cooperative environment within which present and future land use development and land use decisions can be made. The 2015 JLUS identified area growth and economic trends, the facilities and mission of the AFB, land use policies and programs, compatibility issues with AFB operations, and a recommended course of action. Offutt AFB JLUS Overview All AFB installations attract developments. Housing is constructed for AFB employees who want to live near, and businesses are established to serve the AFB and its employees. As development increase around the AFB, more people are exposed to noise and accident potential associated with aircraft operations. The Air Installation Compatibility Use Zone (AICUZ) program was created by the DOD in 1973 to address noise and safety hazards associated with aviation operations. The AICUZ program was established to minimize impacts from aviation operations (noise and accidents) through specific attention to development and land uses. The AICUZ framework evaluates noise from military aircraft, and applies the concept of clear zones and accident potential zones with corresponding development and building intensities designed to encourage compatibility between military operations and communities.

  • Air Force Sexual Assault Court-Martial Summaries 2010 March 2015
    Air Force Sexual Assault Court-Martial Summaries 2010 March 2015 – The Air Force is committed to preventing, deterring, and prosecuting sexual assault in its ranks. This report contains a synopsis of sexual assault cases taken to trial by court-martial. The information contained herein is a matter of public record. This is the final report of this nature the Air Force will produce. All results of general and special courts-martial for trials occurring after 1 April 2015 will be available on the Air Force’s Court-Martial Docket Website (www.afjag.af.mil/docket/index.asp). SIGNIFICANT AIR FORCE SEXUAL ASSAULT CASE SUMMARIES 2010 – March 2015 Note: This report lists cases involving a conviction for a sexual assault offense committed against an adult and also includes cases where a sexual assault offense against an adult was charged and the member was either acquitted of a sexual assault offense or the sexual assault offense was dismissed, but the member was convicted of another offense involving a victim. The Air Force publishes these cases for deterrence purposes. Sex offender registration requirements are governed by Department of Defense policy in compliance with federal and state sex offender registration requirements. Not all convictions included in this report require sex offender registration. Beginning with July 2014 cases, this report also indicates when a victim was represented by a Special Victims’ Counsel. Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, sexual assaults against those 16 years of age and older are charged as crimes against adults. The appropriate disposition of sexual assault allegations and investigations may not always include referral to trial by court-martial.

  • WRP Utah Military Asset List (MAL)
    WRP Utah Military Asset List (MAL) Within the Western Regional Partnership (WRP) region, there are significant military testing and training installations and ranges. WRP developed summaries from all of the Services and the National Guard, describing the history, missions, and importance of these assets. These summaries use only publicly available information and are written for the policy maker new to military issues and the military savvy person needing specific military information. It is our hope that WRP Partners use these summaries as a tool for land use planning efforts to encourage compatible growth and ensure future mission viability. Incompatible development (encroachment) comes in many forms but for the military, it means those issues that affect their ability to fulfill their mission on land, in the sea, or in the air. These military summaries are for general planning purposes.
