Advanced Base Depot-rifle Range306.00OxnardThe Navy first acquired 325 acres from the McGrath family by lease agreement on 3 December 1942, as part of the Port Hueneme Advance Base Depot. In late 1946 and early 1947 the lease was terminated. The 325-acre area was acquired again by the Navy from the McGrath family by lease agreement in the early 1950s. Extensive military training facilities were constructed on the 325-acre site by the Navy for WWII training requirements. Site improvements included the following: armory school, officer's demonstration area, hand grenade school, pistol range, obstacle course, two powder magazines, decontamination and gas buildings, rifle range, 1000-foot machine gun range, 300-yard mortar range, and school range. A small parcel (19 acres) on the northern end of the property was acquired from the Navy by the Army under Use Permit from October 1943 to October 1946 for use as the Oxnard Seacoast Battery (J09CA053000). In late 1946 and early 1947 all improvements at the Advance Base Depot - Rifle Range were demolished. In the early 1950s a limited number of new military training facilities were constructed on the southern portion of the property for use by the Port Hueneme Construction Battalion Center (CBC).
Oxnard Contract School143.00OxnardCON/HTRW(NOFA). The USTs at the former fueling stations (FS-1 and FS-2) were beneficially used by owners subsequent to DOD and have since been removed. Therefore, no eligible project remains.PRP/HTRW(NOFA). Documented soil and groundwater contamination cannot reasonably be traced back to having occurred during DOD use of the site. The County of Ventura had used these tanks intermittently for 46 years. Therefore, no project is recommended at this time.
Coast Artillery Camp10.00PierpontThe Army acquired use of the property from the County of Ventura by a permit agreement (LA 418) on 4 August 1942. The agreement specified the size of the property as 10 acres. The site was initially established by the 144th Field Artillery unit, later to be replaced by the 56th Coast Artillery Regiment. The main purpose of the site was for coastal defense but activities also included rifle range practice and "parade ground" drills. Improvements on the 10-acre site included an undetermined number of buildings of wood-frame and tar-paper construction (at least 2), a rifle range, asphalt road(s), an ammunition magazine, and two Panama gun mounts for two 155-mm. "Long Tom" guns. Practice firing of the guns included monthly live ammunition firing at towed targets offshore.

Camp Seaside- Army62.00VenturaThe 251st Coast Artillery Regiment of the California National Guard (CNG) first utilized Seaside Park (assumed by lease) in 1930 as the site of their 2-week annual field training. The local CNG unit (i.e.,196th Field Artillery Regiment) acquired portions of the site (namely the warehouse and Pavilion) for full-time use from the County of Ventura by lease agreement on 1 May 1936. Conditions of the lease agreement between the 196th and the County included use of the Pavilion by the 251st Coast Artillery during their annual training. Formal occupancy of the entire Park (approximately 42 acres) by the 251st occurred by lease agreement between the County of Ventura and the U.S. Government on 17 August 1940, just prior to its change to Federal Service (Army). The site qualifies for DERP only when CNG was Federalized.
