The Navy and NASA are jointly preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for real estate agreements at PMRF and KPGO
06/20/2025The U.S. Department of the Navy (Navy) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have jointly prepared a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to evaluate the potential environmental impacts of proposed real estate agreements with the State of Hawai‘i for the Pacific Missile Range Facility (PMRF) and the Kōke‘e Park Geophysical Observatory (KPGO). 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 including on the environmental impacts of the 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 Final EIS.
Between July 15 and July 17, the Navy and NASA will host public meetings at three locations on Kaua‘i. Each meeting will be held from 5 - 8 PM HST and include a live online broadcast and public comment opportunity. Please visit the PRMF & KPGO EIS website to learn more about the real estate action, the environmental planning process, the public meetings or to register for the live online broadcast, or how to submit comments: https://pmrf-kpgo-eis.com/.
