The Commanding Officer of MCAS Miramar has renewed our license through June 30, 2010. The license allows us continued access to the range - at no cost to SDSSA - for administrative purposes while the Marines Corps completes a Preliminary Assessment and Site Inspection (PA/SI) under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act.
A draft copy of the report is expected in a few weeks. SDSSA will be provided a copy of the report. We are discussing ideas and devising plans in anticipation of what may be in the report. It has been 15 months since we were ordered to close the range to shooting. In that time a lot has transpired. There have been numerous meetings, phone conversations and a trip to Washington, D.C. all trying to resolve this situation. This has been a long drawn out process. SDSSA has cooperated with and supplied the Marine Corps with anything and everything they have requested from us. SDSSA anticipates and looks forward to continued cooperation with the Marine Corps in 2010.
Speaking not as the President of SDSSA, but, as one member of our Association, I want to thank all members and friends of SDSSA for your efforts and continued support of SAN DIEGO Shotgun Sports Association.

Robert Keefe , President
