Environmental Assessment for MQ-1 Launch and Recovery Element Training Operations at Southern California Logistics Airport Victorville, California

Abstract

The California Air National Guard (ANG) proposes to establish a mission that would train crews in the maintenance and operation of the MQ-1 Predator unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The activities would be coordinated and supported by personnel of the 163d Reconnaissance Wing (163 RW), formerly the 163d Air Refueling Wing, located at March Air Reserve Base (ARB) in Riverside, California. Although the operational mission, classroom training, and administrative functions associated with this mission would occur at March ARB, the Launch and Recovery Element (LRE) site is proposed to be established at a geographically separate location, the Southern California Logistics Airport (SCLA), in Victorville, California, or alternatively at El Mirage Airport, near Adelanto, California.
