Fort Bragg is committed to being an environmental steward of natural
resources and protecting training lands for future generations.
The mission of the Environmental Compliance Branch (ECB) is to support all
Fort Bragg military operations and civilian activities by ensuring that the
installation maintains the highest level of environmental compliance.
The ECB works to include environmental considerations in the early planning
stages of all projects, thus ensuring that environmental issues do not
become training distracters. |
