Public Involvement

The Navy and NASA value and welcome input from the community, as well as the chance to share, communicate, and inform the community about the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and the need for the real estate agreements.

Public involvement is an integral part of the environmental planning process. The public has an important role in providing input during this process to help the Navy and NASA make more informed decisions about the proposed real estate action.

The public scoping period has concluded. The Navy and NASA initiated a public scoping period to receive comments on the scope of the EIS. The public participated in the environmental planning process by providing input on the proposed real estate action including potential alternatives, environmental or cultural concerns, information the public would like the Navy and NASA to know, and any other information the public would like to see addressed in the EIS.

The public scoping period also served as an opportunity to obtain public input concerning potential effects to historic properties pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and Hawai‘i Revised Statutes Section 6E-42.

The public will also have the opportunity to participate during the comment period following publication of the Draft EIS, anticipated in the summer 2025.
