5NSA Annapolis Supporting Navy’s Future Leaders

Naval Support Activity Annapolis

• NSA Annapolis provides base operating support services to the United

States Naval Academy.

• NSA Annapolis is committed to providing effective and efficient shore installation management that supports its tenants and promotes the professional development of the

Brigade of Midshipmen.

The United States Naval Academy

Mission: To develop Midshipmen morally, mentally and physically and to imbue them with the highest ideals of duty, honor and loyalty in order to graduate leaders who are dedicated to a career of naval service and have potential for future development in mind and character to assume the highest responsibilities of command, citizenship and government.

INSTALLATION

RESILIENCE PLAN

September 22, 2003

Without adaptation… this level of flooding occurs with a 5-yr storm by mid-century and annually by 2100

Purpose Develop a comprehensive plan, project portfolio, and year-to-year execution strategy to cohesively address and mitigate the combined effects of flooding caused by land subsidence, sea level rise, storm surge, and changes in the groundwater elevations.

Assumptions

• The Naval Academy will not relocate or retreat

• Brigade size and requirements remain about the same

• Security posture will be consistent with today’s general parameters

• Transportation and emergency management services remain relatively the same

• Maintain the National Historic Landmark status and be respectful of campus aesthetics

Naval Academy Dairy Farm

Site History

Timeline Action

1700-1900 Hammond Farm and Property

1902 + 1910 Hundreds of Midshipmen became ill; suspected to be from tainted dairy products

1913 Navy purchases 857 acres; establishes farm to supply dairy products to

USNA. The farm once maintained over 300 cows and a staff of 45, providing

700 – 1,500 gallons of milk per day

1997 Navy dairy operations cease; 10 U.S.C. §8476 codified allowable uses:

• Property may not be declared excess real property

• Property may be leased

• Requires the property be maintained in its rural and agricultural nature

1998-2008 Tenants included Horizon Organic Farm and Maryland Sunrise Farm

2008 Navy grants 30-year lease to Anne Arundel County (AACO) for agricultural purposes

2024 With support from AACO, Navy issues an RFI to explore and an RPP to pursue future use of the property as a mixed-use energy generation project.
