The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority (Airports Authority) is constructing a new Police Range and Training Facility on Washington Dulles International Airport, at the site of the existing Airports Authority Police firing range, approximately 0.5 mile west of the Runway 1R end, immediately south Flight Line Road. The project will provide a facility where law enforcement officers can attain the training certifications required for new recruits and for the recertification of existing officers, and will include: one 300-yard range with multiple firing positions; two 50-yard pistol ranges covered by a partial ballistic roof; an approximately 98-foot by 60-foot modular training building; an ammunition storage building; and necessary infrastructure improvements to support the new facility including access roads, parking, and utility connections.
