This January, military units are scheduled to conduct essential training activities at Pōhakuloa Training Area (PTA).

Training can occur 24 hours a day, seven days a week on PTA in the restricted airspace. Protecting the health of the force and the community continue to be the Army’s top priority as Hawaiʻi service members maintain mission readiness.

Essential training is subject to change based on safety, weather and other environmental factors. Weather, such as overcast conditions can increase noise and vibrations. Should individuals hear noise, there is no immediate danger.

The planned January training schedule is as follows:

• January 8 Hawaiʻi Army National Guard small arms training
• January 10-18 Army (Reserves) mortar live fire training
• January 13-24 Army small arms and convoy live fire training
• January 14-16 Hawaiʻi Army National Guard small arms training
• January 18-31 Army Unmanned Aircraft Systems, or UAS, training
• January 24-28 Marine UXO surface clearance

The following military convoys are planned throughout the month of January:

• January 11 & 13 – Kawaihae Harbor to PTA from 9am-Noon
• January 25 & 27 – PTA to Kawaihae Harbor from 8:30am to 1pm

There are no hunting opportunities currently planned for January 2022. If the situation changes, an additional advisory will be published.
