Abstract
On July 28, 1997, the Corps published an interim final rule in the Federal Register, which established a danger zone in the waters of the Pacific Ocean extending 5,000 meters offshore from the small arms range at the Naval Air Weapons Station, in Point Mugu, Ventura County, California. The danger zone would provide an appropriate and enforceable zone in which the Navy may conduct small arms test firing to qualify military and civilian security personnel. The comment period for the interim final rule ended on August 27, 1997. No comments were received.
