Abstract: Abstract: key concern for Department of Defense (DoD) installations is their ability to sustain, and sometimes change or expand, their mission activities. Optimal use of installations in the face of changing missions, closures, and realignments requires an understanding of each installation’s capabilities. Regional competition for land, transportation, energy, water, and other resources may put an installation’s ability to perform essential activities at risk. This research adapted the Sustainable Installation Regional Resource Assessment (SIRRA) methodology to consider primary military mission as a weighting factor in determining vulnerability to a set of sustainability issues, and to identify the most vulnerable installations within each DoD service, and to determine those installations that would benefit from further study and intervention.
