It will also include participation from the leadership, Department of Public Works (DPW) and other tenants of Camp Williams, along with the office of Environmental Resource Management (ERM). A Camp Williams master plan was completed in 2013 which did a good job of identifying many compatibility and growth issues. Since that time, tremendous growth has occurred in the area surrounding Camp Williams and growth on the base has deviated from previous plans. A new Master Plan will be able to evaluate the effectiveness of the previous plan and present ideas to improve the planning process going into the future. Since Camp Williams is an important training facility, it is imperative that good planning does what it can to influence communities to focus on the best methods to protect military training and installation resilience while sustaining compatible economic development.

  • 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.
