8 Army Compatible Use Buffer (ACUB) What & Why Since 2002, The Department of Defense s REPI (Readiness and Environmental Protection Integration) program has authorized U.S. military installations to enter into agreements with State or Local governments or private conservation organizations to address development concerns and encroachment on lands neighboring the installation. The United States Army s version of this program, the ACUB (Army Compatible Use Buffer) program, has been used to protect multiple National Guard training Installations from encroachment. Encroachment is defined as urban development surrounding military installations that affects the ability of the military to train realistically. Encroachment restricts the Army s ability to operate installations & training areas. It changes the pattern of land use and habitat growth and impedes the Army s ability to train Soldiers. Army Compatible Use Buffer (ACUB) Sustainability The ACUB program establishes buffer areas around Army installations to limit the effects of encroachment and maximize land inside the installation that can be used to support the installation's mission. Encroachment is also a concern for the communities and environment outside the fence line, whose health, safety, and quality of life could be affected by noise and other impacts associated with training activities. More than 40% of training installations report encroachment issues. Maintaining compatible development includes the use of conservation easements, fee sales, or other interests in land from willing sellers to preserve mission and environmentally important buffer areas near military installations. 8
9 PAARNG ACUB Strategy Maintain the natural environment. Preserve current land use, particularly agriculture, forestry, recreation, and the rural character of the area. Promote opportunities for public recreational use. Maintain strong community relations and regular contact. Willing landowners only and protect property rights. Soldier readiness is first and foremost. Maintain the training Installations existing military missions. Accommodate future missions without expanding Installation boundaries.
