Mr. K the good partner you comment on  with disdain .

1. Brought the potential water difficulty to our communities attention.
2. Provides testing & evaluation at no cost to those folks impacted.
3. Flight patterns are changed as natural corse of operation.
4. Reason for higher taxation is based on perception unless you question the taxing authority first hand.
5. Impact aid is determined and set by political forces in the other Washington not the good partner you find fault with.
Bottom line. The United States Navy and the respective personnel who man its rails are not the villains they are scapegoats of frustration. The frustration if to become productive must be directed to our political representation not a convenient scapegoat.
