Phone: 909‐607‐6796 Email: [email protected] January 14, 2016 [MARCH AIR RESERVE BASE ECONOMIC IMPACT ANALYSIS] The Rose Institute of State and Local Government at Claremont McKenna College was commissioned by Riverside County Economic Development Agency to conduct a study that provides estimates of the impact of March Air Reserve Base (March ARB) on Riverside and San Bernardino counties along with selected cities within Riverside County using data from Fiscal Year 2014. March ARB is located in Riverside County between the cities of Riverside and Moreno Valley. Several military units co‐exist onsite and in the adjacent area. This study aggregates the impact of all units on or adjacent to March ARB that would likely leave the area if the base were to close. March ARB was one of only 32 Air Service training camps established after the United States’ entry into World War I. It was originally established as Alessandro Flying Training Field in February 1918, making it one of the oldest airfields operated by the United States military. It was renamed March Field for 2nd Lieutenant Peyton C. March, Jr., who was killed in an air crash in Texas only fifteen days after being commissioned.

W. Bill Young Chairman The Honorable Norman D. Dicks Ranking Member Subcommittee on Defense Committee on Appropriations House of Representatives Subject: Military Base Realignments and Closures: Updated Costs and Savings Estimates from BRAC 2005 The Department of Defense’s (DOD) cost estimates to implement recommendations from the most recent Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) round have increased and estimated savings resulting from the round have decreased compared to the estimates from the 2005 BRAC Commission. BRAC 2005 was the fifth round of base closures and realignments undertaken by DOD since 1988, and it was the biggest, most complex BRAC round ever. GAO-12-709R Military Base Realignments and Closures To implement this round, DOD executed hundreds of BRAC actions involving over 800 defense locations and the planned relocation of over 125,000 personnel. By law, BRAC 2005 recommendations were to be implemented by September 15, 2011.1 At the outset of BRAC 2005, the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) indicated that DOD viewed BRAC 2005 as a unique opportunity to reshape its installations and realign its forces to meet defense needs for the next 20 years.

    FOREWARD Your Air Force Reserve is a combat- ready force, composed of more than 70,000 proud reservists, stationed locally throughout the United States, serving globally for every Combatant Command around the world. We provide our Nation with operational capability, strategic depth and surge capacity whenever America needs us. We are an integrated Total Force partner in every Air Force core mission: Air and Space Superiority, Global Strike, Rapid Global Mobility, Intelligence, Surveillance, James F. Jackson, and Reconnaissance, and Command Lt Gen, USAF and Control. In an increasingly limited fiscal environment, reservists remain efficient and cost-effective solutions to our nation’s challenges. The majority of our Citizen Airmen serve part time, making us a highly efficient force, averaging about a third of the cost of active duty Airmen. Perhaps our greatest strength is we retain ‘Airmen for life,’ preserving the considerable investments and expertise of our Airmen beyond their Cameron B. Kirksey, active duty service. In times of crisis, we Command CMSgt can call upon our strategic depth of an additional 785,000 Airmen from the Individual Ready Reserve, Standby Reserve, Retired Reserve and Retired Active Duty. To meet future challenges, the Air Force Reserve works as a member of the “Total Force”, alongside active duty and Air National Guardsmen. This strong, three-component team is ready for combat or humanitarian relief operations worldwide. Since 2012, the Air Force Reserve can also be mobilized to respond to domestic requirements here at home. 01 Dual-use capabilities such as airlift, aeromedical evacuation and personnel recovery are equally valuable, both in-theater and for homeland support.

  • Vol. 1 March Air Reserve Base
    March Air Reserve Base / Inland Port Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan Adopted by Riverside County Airport Land Use Commission November 13, 2014 Prepared by Santa Rosa, California MARCH AIR RESERVE BASE / INLAND PORT AIRPORT LAND USE COMPATIBILITY PLAN Adopted November 13, 2014 OVERVIEW This March Air Reserve Base / Inland Port Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (March ARB/IPA ALUCP) was prepared for and adopted by the Riverside County Airport Land Use Commission (RCALUC). In accordance with provisions of the California State Aeronautics Act (Public Utilities Code Section 21670 et seq.), the RCALUC has been assigned the lead responsibility for airport land use compatibility planning around each of the public-use and military airports in Riverside County, including the preparation of an ALUCP for each airport. Beginning in 2004, the RCALUC began adopting new versions of the ALUCPs for most of these airports. Each of these individual ALUCPs is contained within a single, countywide document entitled Riverside County Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan. The ALUCP for each airport consists of the policies in Chapter 2 of that document that are applicable to all of the airports in the county together with airport-specific policies and maps in Chapter 3. This material plus an introductory chapter (Chapter 1) and a set of ap- pendices comprise Volume I. Background data regarding each airport and its environs is included in Volumes 2 and 3. This March ARB/IPA ALUCP maintains this established format. Thus, only the policies and maps spe- cific to March ARB/IPA for insertion into Chapter 3 and the background data to be added to Volume 2 are presented here.
