Noise Advisory for Schofield Barracks

SCHOFIELD BARRACKS, Hawaii – Residents in the vicinity of Schofield Barracks may experience periodic increases in noise Nov. 4 – 7, as a result of scheduled training here.

The training, consisting of small arms and artillery live-fire, will be conducted from approximately 10 a.m. to 3 a.m.

Please note that training is likely to occur late into the night. Dates and times are subject to change, as the training is contingent on required environmental conditions, such as wind speed and moisture levels. Additionally, overcast conditions may increase noise and vibrations. Smoke may also be visible for a short time.

The Army in Hawaii appreciates the community’s understanding and continued support of local Soldiers and their families. While sometimes loud, the sounds of training represent how the Army ensures our nation’s Soldiers are ready to accomplish their mission and return home safely.

To report concerns related to noise or training, please call the U.S. Army Garrison-Hawaii (USAG-HI) Noise Concern Line at 656-3487. The USAG-HI Public Affairs Office will contact you about your concern during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m.-4 p.m.
