Draft Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (DSEIS) for Final Site Selection and Authorization for Implementation of the Proposed G.V. (Sonny) Montgomery Range, Camp Shelby Training Site, Camp Shelby, Mississippi

In the July 1994 Military Use of Forest Service Lands Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS), the G.V. (Sonny) Montgomery Range is referred to as the Multiple Purpose Range Complex-Heavy (MPRC- H). Any reference to the MPRC-H in this or other documents refers to the G.V. (Sonny) Montgomery Range. The July 1994 FEIS and Record of Decision provided an environmental analysis in support of the issuance of a special use permit for continued military use of Forest Service lands in De Soto National Forest. The FEIS recognized that military use of Forest Service lands included construction of an MPRC-H within the Camp Shelby complex, although it did not specify the location. This draft document contains the site-specific environmental analysis concerning the proposed location and alternatives on Camp Shelby for MPRC-H construction. The G.V. (Sonny) Montgomery Range is a standard Army gunnery range which has three maneuver avenues with two course roads per avenue. Only non-dud producing (or ``nonexplosive'') ammunition will be fired within the target array. The range has a maximum of 270 targets which can be engaged with either live fire or the Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement Syst
