Marine Corps Installations East—Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune (MCIEAST-MCBCL), Environmental Management Division, Integrated Natural Resources Management Plan (INRMP) http://www.lejeune.marines.mil/OfcesStaf/EnvironmentalMgmt.aspx Integrated Natural Resources Management Plans (INRMPs) help installation command- ers manage natural resources more efectively and in a way that provides for sustainable, healthy ecosystems, complies with all applicable environmental laws and regulations, and provides for no net loss in the capability of military installation lands to support the mili- tary mission of the installation. Te Camp Lejeune INRMP is intended to provide a beneft to, and gain a critical habitat exemption for, the following species: red-cockaded wood- pecker, loggerhead sea turtle, green sea turtle, leatherback sea turtle, bald eagle, piping plover, rough-leaved loosestrife, sea-beach amaranth, Hirsts’ panic grass, and coastal goldenrod. Defense Coastal/Estuarine Research Program, Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune https://dcerp.rti.org Te Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) imple- mented the Defense Coastal/Estuarine Research Program (DCERP) to accomplish DOD’s ecosystem-based management approach for military lands along coastal and estuarine shorelines in two contract periods. DCERP1 focused on understanding coastal and estu- arine ecosystem composition, structure, and function within the context of a military training environment and was completed in 2013. DCERP2 was developed to understand how coastal and estuarine ecosystems respond to climate change and to assess the carbon cycles in these ecosystems and will be completed by 2017.
