Subject: Info Request: non-explosive trng.
 
Information request:
Dick Smith, Citizens for Responsible Fort McCoy Growth, is looking for 
documentation of bombing and training ranges that have 
successfully switched to non-explosive training ordnance. Dick does not 
have email yet, so please send information to him at: Route 4, Box 290A, 
Sparta, Wisconsin 54656. His phone number is (608)269-2694.

Background: Training areas at Wisconsin's Fort McCoy are superimposed 
on the headwaters of the LaCrosse River, including 7 tributaries -- many 
of which are Class I trout streams. A couple years ago the Army proposed 
a buffer zone to protect the river and its tributaries, not surprisingly 
this has failed and impacts/explosions are still occuring in and around 
the river, exacerbating erosion, contamination, and sedimentation of 
these precious waters. 

Thanks everyone for your help!
Laura
