Draft Environmental Impact Statement - MX Deployment Area Selection and Land Withdrawal/Acquisition DEIS. Volume V. Appendices.

Abstract

THIS PAPER DESCRIBED THE PROCESS USED TO SELECT REASONABLE BASING AREAS FOR M-X, concentrating on recent evaluations which led to the selection of two potential basing areas for further study. The selection process began in 1977 with consideration of the entire continental United States. This initial work surveyed basing needs, screened possible areas for M-X deployment, and finally identified six potential basing areas for deployment of M-X in Multiple Protective shelters MPS). Maps and descriptions of these areas are included. Previous criteria were augmented with military and operational considerations in order to identify which, if any, of the six potential basing areas were unreasonable to pursue.
