| | Naval Air Station (NAS) Lemoore |
 | | NAS Lemoore was built “from the ground up” as a Master Jet Base, and has several operational advantages, and relatively few constraints, as a result. |
 | | NAS Lemoore is located in California's San Joaquin Valley, primarily in Kings County, 40 miles south of Fresno, 14 miles west of Hanford, and 7 miles west of Lemoore on State Highway 198. |
 | | Sites considered at NAS Lemoore for the new facilities/renovations avoided environmentally sensitive areas, and were selected based on the following functional considerations: adequacy of existing structures for the proposed uses, availability of utilities, and proximity of the structure/site to existing and related facilities, such as hangars, warehouses, classrooms, administrative offices, housing and recreational facilities. |
