Readiness and Environmental Protection Integration 8th Annual Report to Congress
Abstract
The Department of Defenses Readiness and Environmental Protection Integration (REPI) Program helps ensure the sustainability of our military's training, testing, and operations capabilities by protecting land around installations and ranges. Under the REPI Program, DoD works with stakeholders to find solutions to military-community-environmental encroachment issues, and enters into unique cost-sharing agreements with conservation organizations and state and local governments to maintain compatible land uses and preserve habitats around military installations. REPI partnerships maximize taxpayer dollars by helping to relieve or avoid land-use conflicts near military installations, and protecting against reactive spending on costly alternative approaches to training ,mission relocations, or new range construction when restrictions impact the regular use of testing and training lands
