New Mexico Considered for Seafarer Navy System
The Defense Department weighs New Mexico and Nevada sites for a 500 million Seafarer radio system to reach submerged submarines. New Mexico sites include White Sands Missile Range and Fort Bliss near Las Cruces, with Nevada’s option at the Nevada Test Site near Nellis AFB. The project would create about 1,000 construction jobs over three years and several hundred permanent positions, and officials say it poses no environmental hazards while supporting nuclear deterrent capabilities. Local leaders and lawmakers from New Mexico back the plan, citing economic benefits and range suitability. A environmental impact statement is forthcoming, with public comments invited.
