**AGENCY:**

Department of the Navy, DoD.

**ACTION:**

Notice.

**SUMMARY:**

The United States Department of the Navy (DoN), announces its decision to conduct training and testing in the Atlantic Fleet study area as described in Alternative 1 of the Atlantic Fleet Training and Testing Final Environmental Impact Statement/Overseas Environmental Impact Statement (AFTT FEIS/OEIS). Under Alternative 1, the DoN will be able to meet current and future DoN training and testing requirements.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**

Alternative 1 also includes an annual level of testing that reflects the fluctuations in DoN testing programs. The complete text of the Record of Decision (ROD) for the AFTT FEIS/OEIS is available on the project website at *http://aftteis.com* , along with the September 2018 AFTT FEIS/OEIS, dated September 2018 and supporting documents.
