The new Range and Training Area Management (RTAM) buildings are soon to be open for business. The move began on Feb. 4, and the training support services will be operational in the new facility no later than March 1, 2019.
The RTAM offices, including Range Control will be located in building 1043. This facility will be the site for future Range Safety Officer (RSO) classes increasing the capacity to nearly 75 students. Units desiring to checkout a range for Feb. 25 must do so prior to 12 p.m. on Feb. 22. Personnel wanting to check out ranges will continue to do so at building 54 until February 22. From February 26 and thereafter, Marines will have to go to building 1043.
The maintenance and supply facility, building 1047, will provide the Navy Boat Crew with storage area for all boats, a service and repair area, and office space for the crews. The building will also house the supply section that services all of G-3/5.
