Olympic National Park and Olympic National forest are being slated for use by the military as a training range for staging mock attacks between US Navy"Growler" jets and ground based mobile and stationary electromagnetic warfare antennas. The plan has been fast tracked by the military and US Forest Service with a minimal environmental impact statement and short comment period. The affected land holds the UNESCO status as an International Biosphere Reserve. There is very little known about the possible effects of exposure to electromagnetic radiation. These jets travel at speeds over 1000mph and would fly as low as 1200 feet over this pristine area. This sparsely populated area is home to five Native American coastal communities, the town of Forks, Washington, and other rural residents.
