Welcome

Welcome to the Fort Pickett Maneuver Training Center (MTC) Joint Land Use Study (JLUS) website. The Fort Pickett MTC JLUS is a collaborative planning effort between Nottoway County, Brunswick County, Dinwiddie County, the Town of Blackstone, Fort Pickett MTC, and other local and regional stakeholders to identify and assess compatibility issues between Fort Pickett MTC and the surrounding communities. As the JLUS evolves, this website will be your primary access point for all project related materials and event information.

Fact Sheet #2

Fact Sheet #2 provides information on strategies to address the compatibility issues identified as part of the Fort Pickett MTC JLUS. When the recommended strategies are implemented, impacts from existing and potential compatibility issues that result from the civilian / military interface can be eliminated or significantly minimized. Recommended strategies are the critical component of the JLUS process and the key to implementation of the JLUS Report.
