Range Sustainment Project Training Area and Range Assessment Tool
Project Concept:
– Quantitatively determine Navy range complex contribution to readiness & better understand the linkages between readiness, range use and cost
– Link above data in an automated, sustainable & repeatable process
– Improve DoD / DoN range encroachment defense
Objectives:
Do the following…
– Align existing cost, readiness & utilization databases
– Create an assessment tool with reports to display range contribution to fleet readiness linked to utilization and cost
…to be able to…
– Provide impact analysis to defend against encroachment
– Assess validated range resource requirements
– Show readiness impact of budget decisions
– Provide business case analysis to support POM build 2
Current Encroachment Issue How TARAT Is Helping DOD / DoN
Notional Wind
Turbine Placement OPAREA Usage
Example:
Ship Missile Exercise
• Drone Transit Area
• Drone Tracking Area
• Missile Hazard Pattern
Encroachment Issue • VA Task Force wants wind farms
in close to Norfolk power grid • USN wants wind farms further
out to lessen impact on training
Virginia Capes
W72 OPAREAs
What is the full ‘impact’ on DoD / Services for test and training events? DoD / DoN need a better range encroachment defense to show the full impact to DoD and the Services if certain OPAREA grids are lost or available use is reduced… 3
OSD „Hot Button‟ Encroachment Issues
Solution: Include TARAT in Encroachment Tool Kit • Integrates data from multiple operations of dissimilar
platforms/mission sets
• In-depth analysis of areas used for test & training, range
resources, and targets used
• Value of area attributes & resource capabilities is more accurate
when data is complete
• Enables better understanding of the full impact of encroachment to
test & training
• Informs leadership of needed improvements to Enterprise data
• Improves range encroachment defense to sustain our valuable
test & training assets
WBB Ability to Measure Encroachment Impact • Provide (TARAT data and analysis) DoD staffs with encroachment issue assessment (< 30 days)
• Develop TARAT as part of USG / DoD tool kit to assess alternate energy proposals
• Expand TARAT to provide DOT&E with full impact of encroachment issues
• Provide analysis and responses for BRAC
• Develop green/yellow/red map to analyze/compare closing Grid X vs. Grid Y (OPAREAs, over land)
• NEPA compliance with improved range management data and analysis
• Improved Frequency Spectrum Encroachment defense
• Ability to provide full utilization picture and „value‟ of Special Use Airspace (inland and OPAREAs)
• Identify full impact to OPAREA from encroachment issues
OSD Encroachment Issues & Requirements • NDAA requires DoD complete encroachment issue
assessment within 30 days
• Develop tools to permit USG / DoD to assess
alternate energy proposals (OSD Clearing House)
• Develop these tools to account for encroachment
issues
• Lens towards BRAC
• DoD directed in statute, to develop green/yellow/red
map to analyze/compare closing Grid X vs. Grid Y
• Frequency Spectrum auction in 2015?
• BRAC in next few years?
• NEPA compliance (EPA laws)
• Airspace (Inland) Issues
• OPAREA impact from encroachment issues

Our Capability to Measure Encroachment Impact
WBB’s Encroachment Assessment Process
Build inimitable architecture to populate Training Area and Range Assessment Tool (TARAT) with full utilization data set
TARAT is a unique capability and foundation to provide integrated data from numerous sources for analysis and assessment of encroachment issues
Knowledge of NEPA, range operations and management, database applications, and encroachment issues applied to analyses and assessments
Comprehensive understanding of range complex attributes and capabilities • Air, land, water and underwater spaces, and their attributes • Frequency spectrum, instrumented resources, targets, support, range safety
Experience in synthesizing data from numerous sources into usable format
Linked information from different sources to increase utilization data pool
In-depth, accurate analysis of integrated utilization data
Assessment of the results to understand and display the full value of area attributes & resource capabilities to test and training requirements
• Identify encroachment issue ‘impacts’ to DOD and Service missions and requirements
This process improves range encroachment defense for long-
term sustainment of our valuable test & training resources 5

TARAT provides this report for any OPAREA grid within the VACAPES Range Complex 12
Ship Ordnance Expended Data will improve encroachment defense for DOD/DoN • TRIMSV & USFF ATR slightly improve ship ordnance expenditure data (only record ~9%)
Ordnance Expended Data on LANT OPAREAs Comparison From Separate Databases (Jul09)
Issue: Databases do not provide senior leadership with the
information to make objective, defendable decisions

Summary TARAT Value
WBB’s experience and innovative tools such as TARAT will
have an immediate impact on meeting NEPA reporting and
Range Encroachment Defense objectives
• Encroachment Planning & Defense
• Range Complex Management Planning
• National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 Documentation
• Range sustainability and condition assessment plans
WBB provides unique capabilities and an encroachment
assessment process
• TARAT
• Frequency Spectrum Encroachment analysis
TARAT provides a unique value to range managers and users • Ensure sustainability of military training ranges & operating areas
• Key range encroachment defense component to portray actual use
and ordnance expenditure by OPAREA grid location 14
