SITE SURVEY SUMMARY SHEET FOR DERP-FUDS SITE NO. J09CA7291 POINT REYES GUNNERY RANGE SITE NAMES:
Point Reyes Gunnery Range consisted of nine major facilities: the old Point Reyes Life Saving Station and Auxiliary Landing, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) Lifeboat Station, the Point Reyes Lighthouse, three Rake Stations, Rake Station One, Rake Station Two, and Rake Station Three, the "A"Ranch Barracks, the "B" Ranch Barracks, and the "C" Ranch Stables. The Point Reyes Lighthouse was also known as the Point Reyes Lighthouse Reservation, California. The "A" Ranch Barracks, which was also known as the "A" Ranch Barracks Complex, contained a lookout station with a Depression Position Finder (DPF), Radar, the Water Tower, and the Paint Racks. The USCG Lifeboat Station contained a USCG Dwelling and a USCG Lookout. The Old Point Reyes Life Saving Station and Auxiliary Landing, the USCG Lifeboat Station, the Point Reyes Lighthouse, Rake Stations, "A" Ranch Barracks Complex, "B" Ranch Barracks, and the '%" Ranch Stables are the names that will be used for the remainder of this report. It is unclear exactly which facilities belonged with the Point ~ e ~Gunnery Range and which ones belonged with the Drakes Bay Range, a e s separate Formerly Used Defense Site (FUD). See Table 1 for the breakdown of the two Ranges. Information on the Drakes Bay Range can be found in the Inventory Project Report (INPR) for that site. LOCATION:
All of the sites at the Point Reyes Gunnery Range are located within the Point Reyes National

Seashore (PRNS), in western Marin County, California, approximately 11 miles southwest of Inverness and 30 miles northwest of San Francisco, California. Point Reyes is bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the west and US Highway 1 to the east. See Figure 2 for the location map. The Old Point Reyes Life Saving Station was located on a three and one-half acre site, three miles north of the Point Reyes Lighthouse on sand dunes and beach. The Auxiliary Landing was located on Drakes Beach within the "B" Ranch. The U.S. Coast Guard Lifeboat Station was located a few hundred feet east of the Lighthouse Service's Drakes Bay landing and right of way in the lee of Point Reyes7 eastern headlands. The Point Reyes Lighthouse waslocated on the rocky cliffs at the western tip of the Point

INPR, Point Reyes Gunnery Range Reyes western headlands. The "A" Ranch Barracks Complex was located on the Point Reyes headlands. The "B" Ranch Barracks was located on the Mendoza's "B" Ranch. The exact location

of the "C" Ranch Stables is unknown. The Three Rake Stations were located on the shore of Drakes Bay. See Figure 3 for the layout of Point Reyes Gunnery Range and neighboring properties.

SITE HISTORY:
Point Reves Lifesaving Station and Auxiliary Landing On 20 January 1888 fee simple determinable title in a small piece of land on Point Reyes was acquired by the Government from Mr. Charles Webb Howard. The Government would hold title in this property for as long as the property was used as a lifesaving station according to that instrument. The property was used as a lifesaving station until 1927 upon which time title reverted to the grantor and his heirs. However, the USCG didn't remove the property from the record of properties held by the Treasury Department until sometime after 8 March 1960 (TechLawInc., 1998). During World War 11, the Old Point Reyes Lifesaving Station went under emergency command of the Navy Department. Up to 50 men were stationed there as part of the Naval Local Lifeboat station crews regularly rescued pilots who had crashed while conducting gunnery and bombing practice in Drakes Bay, Abbotts Lagoon, and Tomales Bay.
An auxiliary landing for lifeboats was located on Drakes Beach within the "B" Ranch. This

landing was used when rough seas didn't permit launching lifeboats from the Old Point Reyes Lifesaving Station. No real estate records pertaining to Department of Defense's (DoD) interest in this property have been located. The use of the above facilities was limited to rescuing pilots. No hazards from the former DoD activities were identified. Therefore, No Department of Defense Action is Indicated (NDAT).

United States Coast Guard Lifeboat Station

INPR, Point Reyes Gunnery Range

A new lifeboat station, which became known as the USCG Lifeboat Station, was built in 1927 a few hundred feet east of the Lighthouse Service's Drakes Bay landing and right of way in the lee of Point Reyes' eastern headlands. A dwelling site stood on 2.07 acres 1,300 feet northwest of the station building. The lookout stood on a 30 by 30-foot plot of ground, about three-eighths of a mile southeast of the station building on the high ground of the headlands. Mr. Joseph V. Mendoza, owner of the "A'' Ranch, agreed to a Right of Way in 1938 allowing a road 40 feet wide to be built over his land connecting the dwelling site and the station. In 1940, a lease was signed for a new lookout site, storm signal tower, and other structures. In 1941, the station received a steel paint locker and a pump house. Mr. Mendoza granted an easement for a road which ran from a point on the county road leading from Inverness to the Point Reyes Lighthouse to the eastern headlands at Point Reyes. In 1962 a guyed aluminum tower 85 feet high was constructed.
All of the land that made up the USCG Lifeboat Station came under the administration of the

PRNS in 1969. At that time the property consisted of approximately 2.767 acres of land. It included Parcel A, the USCG Dwelling area (2.07 acres), Parcel B, the boathouse site (0.676 acres), and Parcel C, the USCG Lookout area (0.021 acres) (TechLawInc., 1998). The use of the above facilities was limited to rescuing pilots. No hazards from the former DoD activities were identified. Therefore, No Department of Defense Action is Indicated (NDAI). The Point Reyes Lighthouse The Point Reyes Lighthouse, located on the rocky cliffs at the western tip of the Point Reyes western headlands, was operated by the Lighthouse Service until 1939. Mr. Charlie Zetterquist, a local resident of the area, stated that his father worked for the Lighthouse Service at Point Reyes, California from 1930 to 1939. In 1939 the U.S. Coast Guard took over the operation of the lighthouse. There were two small cottages where the Park Service garage had been erected and a large two story house where the Park Residence is now located. A small lighthouse keeper's house was located above the lighthouse stairs where a viewing platform is now located. The United States Navy acquired 1.00 acre of permitted land from the USCG on 7 May 1943. It was used by the Navy to construct "hutrnents." On 26 September 1952, this permit was

INPR, Point Reyes Gunnery Range relinquished to the Department of the Treasury. The 1.00 acre property is addressed under the Preliminary Assessment Evaluation for The Point Reyes Lighthouse, FUDS Property No. J09CAO90800. A request was made in December of 1952 by the Coordinator, Naval Air Bases, to use a vacant duplex at the USCG Lighthouse Station to house and mess personnel from Fleet Aircraft Service Squadron (FASRON) 885 who were assigned to observation of aerial mine laying practice. A reply letter dated 16 February 1953 from Commander 1 2 Coast Guard District, D.E. McKay, ~ states that a former Army administration building was available and could be renovated. The use of the above facilities was limited to rescuing pilots. No hazards from the former DoD activities were identified. Therefore, No Department of Defense Action is Indicated (NDAI).

"A"Ranch Barracks Com~lex

During World War 11, the U.S. Army constructed a barracks, a lookout tower with a DPF, and a radar tower on the Point Reyes western headlands. Near this location the U.S. Navy operated a paint testing facility (The Paint Racks). This property was within the "A" Ranch. However, no real estate records pertaining to DoD's interest in the property have been located. The DPF supplied range data to the Camp Hydle Artillery Outpost guns. The Navy used the Paint Racks just east of the water tower near the current lighthouse visitor parking area. The Navy used the Paint Racks to hold pieces of metal that had been coated with different types of paint. This was done to test the resilience of the paint to the elements. Of these buildings only the water tower ~emains.The use of the above facilities was to house personnel. No hazards from the former DoD activities were indentified Therefore, No Department of Defense Action is Indicated (NDAI). "B" Ranch Barracks Another barracks and radar station was located on the Mendoza's "B" Ranch. U.S. Army personnel and dogs were stationed there during World War 11. The dogs were used by the men patrolling the beaches. No real estate records pertaining to DoD's interest in this property have been located. The use of the above facilities was to house personnel. No hazards from the former DoD activities were identified. Therefore, No Department of Defense Action is Indicated (NDAI).

INPR, Point Reyes Gunnery Range "C" Ranch Stables Horses used by the beach patrols during World War I1 were kept somewhere on the "C" Ranch. The location of this facility is unclear and no other information regarding this location has been found. The use of the above facilities was to house personnel. No hazards from the former

'

DoD activities were identified. Therefore, No Department of Defense Action is Indicated (NDAI). Rake Stations In 1952, the Government leased three small parcels of land to erect Rake Stations One, Two, and Three on the shore of Drakes Bay. The purpose of those stations was to house personnel who were observing aerial mine laying practice in Drakes Bay. One of the parcels was leased from Leland and Olive Murphy. That lease was entered on 16 December 1952. A second parcel was leased from Zena M. Mendoza. It was entered into on 22 December 1952. The third parcel was leased from WiIliarn T. and Alice C. Hall. That lease was entered into on 23 December 1952. Al of the leases l contain legal descriptions of the parcels and a requirement that the lands be used for military purposes. Al lease terms were to end 30 June 1954, but each lease contained a clause allowing the l Government to renew the lease at its option. No renewal was to extend the period of occupancy beyond 30 June 1957. These leases were terminated by the parties on 15 April 1954 as a result of United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), San Francisco denying the application for the reestablishment of the danger zone for a practice mine-laying area in the vicinity of Drakes Bay. The use of the above facilities was to house personnel. No hazards from the former DoD activities were identified. Therefore, No Department of Defense Action is Indicated (NDAI). Site Deactivation and Current Uses The area around Point Reyes Gunnery Range comprises the PRNS. This National Seashore was established by President Kennedy in 1962, and is operated by the National Park Service under the Department of the Interior. At present the park contains over 140 miles of hiking trails, three visitor centers, biking trails, and four hike-in camp grounds. Other activities available to the public include whale watching, horseback riding, bird watching, and lighthouse tours. Many of the ranches purchased by the Government continue to be operated as dairies and cattle ranches under long term leases.

SITE VISIT:
The site visit was conducted on 8 April 1998 when TechLaw Inc. was contracted by the USACE to compose a Preliminary Assessment of Eligibility (PAE) for the site. TechLaw Inc. Messrs. Steven Clonts and Gene Barber of TechLaw conducted a site visit of Point Reyes on 8 April 1998. The purpose of that visit was to make observations about the current condition of the site and to identlfy any features that might relate to the operations of the DoD. TechLaw observed that the Lighthouse trail is widely used for recreation purposes by the public visiting the PRNS. A view of the former location of the "A" Ranch Barracks, DPF, radar, and the water tower was noted from the vista just north of the parking area. From the same vista TechLaw was able to capture a view of the Point Reyes Beach to the north. At the top of the trail above the Point Reyes Lighthouse TechLaw noted the locations of the Park Residence, Visitor's Center, and a cistern which was used to capture fresh water. TechLaw viewed the Point Reyes Lighthouse from the viewing platform where the lighthouse keeper's house was once located. The residence is believed to have been the U.S. Coast Guard Dwelling Site. A pier is located near this residence. Several hundred feet down the trail TechLaw noted the location of the U.S. Coast Guard Lifeboat Station, its pier, and a small cluster of above ground steel tanks. The yellow tanks are connected to pipes which come up from the ground. A hole approximately two inches in diameter was noted in the end of the tank closest to the water tower. The use of these tanks is unknown, and their continued use indicates that they are not eligible for removal under the FUDS program.

1. Point Reyes Gunnery Range is located in Marin County, California, and is located

approximately 11 miles southwest of Inverness and 30 miles northwest of San Francisco, California. It lies within the Point Reyes National Seashore. Point Reyes Gunnery Range is made up of nine major sites: Point Reyes Lighthouse, United States Coast Guard (USCG) Lifeboat Station, Point Reyes Lifesaving Stations and Auxiliary Landing (PRLSAL), "A" Ranch Barracks Complex, "B" Ranch Barracks, "C" Ranch Stables, and.three Rake Stations. The Point Reyes Lighthouse is located on the rocky cliffs at the western tip of the Point Reyes western headlands, was operated by the Lighthouse Service until 1939. In 1939, the U.S. Coast Guard took over the operation of the Lighthouse. The United States Navy acquired 1.00 acre of permitted land from the USCG on 7 May 1943. The PRLSAL was acquired by the Government on 20 January 1888 from Mr. Charles 'Webb Howard. The Government would hold title in this property as long as it was used as a lifesaving station. It was used for that purpose until 1927 upon which time the title was reverted to the grantor and his heirs. During World War 11, the PRLSAL went under emergency command of the Navy. The USCG Lifeboat Station consisted of 2.767 acres of land but no leases were found for this property. The U.S. Navy acquired 1.00 acres of permitted land from the USCG on 7 May 1943. The 1.00 acre of property is addressed under the Preliminary -Assessment Evaluation for the Point Reyes Light House under FUDS property No. J09CA090800. The instruments used to acquire the "A", "B", and "C" Ranches were not located. The location of the "C"Ranch Stables are unclear. On 16 December 1952, the Government leased a parcel of land from Leland and Olive Murphy; on 22 December 1952, the Government leased a parcel of land from Zena M. Mendoza; and on 23 December 1952, the Government leased a parcel of land from William T. and Alice C. Hall. These parcels were used for the three Rake Stations. 2. The facilities at the Point Reyes Gunnery Range were used to rescue pilots whose planes had crashed in the bay and to house Army personnel.

3. TheUSCG removed the property at the PRLSAL from the record of properties held by the

Treasury Department sometime after 8 March 1960. The 2.767 acres that made up the USCG Lifeboat Station came under the administration of the PRNS in 1969. On 26 September 1952, the permit for the Point Reyes Lighthouse was relinquished by the DoD to the Department of the Treasury. The three leases for the Rake Stations were to end on 30 June 1954, but each lease contained a clause allowing the government to renew the lease at its option. These leases were terminated by the DoD on 15 April 1954 as a result of the United States Army Corps of Engineers, San Francisco denying the applicatio~i the reestablishment of the danger zone for a for practice mine laying area in the vicinity of Drakes Bay. The Point Reyes Gunnery Range and surrounding properties comprise the PRNS. The PRNS was established by President Kennedy in 1962. At present 'the park contains over 140 miles of hiking trails, three visitor centers, biking, four hike in camp grounds, whale watching, horseback riding, bird watching, and lighthouse tours. Many of the ranches purchased by the Governmtmt continue to be operated as dairies aid cattle ranches under long term leases.
DETERMINATION Based on the foregoing findings of fact, the site has been determined to be formerly used by the

Department of Defense (DoD). Therefore this site is eligible for the Defense Environmental Restoration Program for Formerly Used Defense Sites established under 10 U.S.C. 2701 et Seq.
