The U.S. Forest Service's National Forests in Mississippi partners with the Department of Defense through the REPI Program to preserve surrounding lands near military installations, preventing incompatible development that could restrict training, testing, and operations. This collaboration with entities like The Nature Conservancy helps protect airspace, mitigate wildlife collision hazards to aircraft, and avoid environmental conflicts impacting defense missions.
