COM‐2R General
Issue / Strategy
Technical guidance on compatibility
Local jurisdictions need clearer input from the Air Force regarding planning and development decisions and whether they are compatible with Travis AFB
and its missions.
Short‐term
COM‐3A Composite Consider establishment of Military Compatibility Areas or equivalent
mechanism
MCA
Each jurisdiction should consider establishment of a Composite Military
Compatibility Area containing the individual Military Compatibility Areas (MCAs)
that reflect the types and intensity of compatibility issues. The Composite
MCA is the collective geographic area of all the MCAs combined. The MCAs
should be used by local jurisdictions to identify areas where specific compatibility
issues are more likely to occur. Implementation of the Composite
MCA and associated strategies for these zones will:
Create a broader framework for making sound planning decisions around
military airfields
More accurately identify areas that can affect or be affected by military
missions
Protect the public’s health, safety, and welfare
Protect the military missions
Create a compatible mix of land uses
