LAS-2 Sand Beach Authority Awareness of Flight Restrictions
While the Harrison County Sand Beach Authority is responsible for the permitting of vendors on Sand Beach, there may be a lack of awareness of the flight restrictions
proximate to Keesler AFB.
Coordination Through Business Licensure
Consider the use of the existing business license or review procedure for aviation tourism
vendors within the City of Biloxi and Harrison County to ensure notification of Keesler AFB
airfield operations.

District (MCAOD) Information in Local Planning Documents
Term
The JLUS Stakeholders should incorporate the MCAs and MCAOD in Figures 13 through 17 of
this Chapter into their available mapping, relevant planning documents, and communication
efforts. The Keesler AFB MCAs and MCAOD should be used by JLUS stakeholders to identify
where, geographically, each JLUS strategy should be applied. This will facilitate education and
awareness of military compatibility areas in the JLUS Study Area. The Keesler AFB MCAOD
could assist in achieving military compatibility in the future. A description of the Keesler AFB
MCAOD and its subzones can be found in the Implementation Plan section narrative. The
Keesler AFB MCAOD consists of three MCAs and associated subzones and a BASH Relevancy
