 | | The Military Lands Withdrawal Act (Public Law 99-606), enacted by Congress on November 6, 1986, identified the Fort Greely Maneuver Area and Air Drop Zone and the Fort Wainwright Maneuver Area (also known as the Yukon Maneuver Area) as lands withdrawn from public use from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). |
 | | The Military Lands Withdrawal Act specifies these lands are reserved for use by the Secretary of the Army for military maneuvering, training, artillery firing, aerial gunnery, infantry tactics, equipment development, and testing, as well as other defense-related purposes. |
 | | The Military Lands Withdrawal Act requires the Army to publish a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) by November 6, 1998, for renewed withdrawal of the Fort Greely Maneuver Area and Air Drop Zone and the Fort Wainwright Maneuver Area. |
