Title

Future of the Long Range Aids to Navigation (LORAN-C) Program

Description

NOTE: Notice of Availability for Record of Decision. LORAN is a radionavigation system first developed during World War II and operated by the USCG. The current system (LORAN-C) is a low frequency hyperbolic radionavigation system approved for use in the U.S. Coastal Confluence Zone (CCZ) and as a supplemental air navigation aid. LORAN-C provides navigation, location, and timing services for both civil and military air, land, and marine users in the continental United States (CONUS) and Alaska. The government is considering the need to continue to operate and invest in the North American LORAN-C radionavigation system.
