Security & Installation Access Advisories

April 2, 2026: Installation Access Advisory

Due to increased security measures, the Trusted Traveler Program that previously allowed DoW-affiliated sponsors to vouch for vehicle occupants for installation access is currently suspended.

To avoid long processing times, all sponsors for unvetted visitors are highly encouraged to submit access requests at least seven days prior to guest arrival. If your visitor has a REAL ID, please use the IARA Visitor Pass process. If your visitor does not have a REAL ID, please use the Sponsored Base Access process: https://www.lejeune.marines.mil/Sections/Provost-Marshals-Office/#sponsored-visitor-requests.

Additionally, sponsors can submit special event requests in advance via a CAC-enabled website using the IARA system at https://webapps.mcieast.usmc.mil/IARA/. If using IARA, your request will be submitted in queue with other event requests.

Once all documents are submitted and approved, the sponsor and/or visitor can report to the installation Visitor Center to pick up their pass.

New Camp Lejeune Visitor Center (TT-13) hours are Monday through Friday from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Stay up to date with the latest Visitor Center hours and other pertinent information by visiting this section: https://www.lejeune.marines.mil/Sections/Provost-Marshals-Office/#visitor-center-information

Gate Advisories: MCB Camp Lejeune

Current Security Posture

The commander of U.S. Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) has directed all installations to implement heightened security measures at all entry gates until further notice. These measures include but are not limited to100% ID checks, random vehicle inspections, and the suspension of the Trusted Traveler Program until further notice.

Drivers should expect delays and possible random inspections at all entry gates and should plan accordingly. These enhanced security measures are being implemented to safeguard our servicemembers, civilians, and families, while ensuring our continued ability to generate and project combat power at the time and place of our Nation’s choosing.

Installation Access Update:

To avoid long processing times, all unvetted visitors are highly encouraged to submit access requests in advance of their visit. Once submitted and approved, the sponsor and visitor can report to the installation Visitor Center to pick up their pass. If the Visitor Center is closed, personnel should report the following business day to receive their pass.

The Trusted Traveler Program previously allowed DoD-affiliated sponsors to vouch for vehicle occupants for installation access. At this time, all unvetted visitors must report to the installation Visitor Center to request access.

The latest local notice to mariners can be found here: https://www.navcen.uscg.gov/local-notices-to-mariners?district=5+0&subdistrict=n.

Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, the II Marine Expeditionary Force and our other tenant commands appreciate the enormous sacrifices made by our neighbors as we train for the defense of our country. Among those sacrifices is the occasional disruption of daily life by the sometimes intrusive noise caused by on-base training.

The II Marine Expeditionary Force and the other units that call Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune and the coastal North Carolina region home, train hard to be ready at a moment's notice to answer our nation's call. Sometimes this fast-paced training results in loud artillery, low-flying aircraft, weapons or demolition noise.

We at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune pledge to do our best to keep our neighbors informed about when and where those disruptions are likely to occur by releasing a weekly noise report every Friday listing any potential noise generating events.

Please contact our dedicated noise abatement hotline with all concerns regarding noise, vibration, excessive dust, low-flying aircraft and/or maneuver damage from the Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune area, by calling (910) 451-9079, or by email at CLJN_GLOBE_WEB@usmc.mil.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while our Marines strive to "train as they fight" every day - under the most realistic combat conditions using the best equipment and ranges available.

prescribeD burn Notice

There are no prescribed burns at this time.

Reminders

• Be alert for warning signs near prescribed burn areas.
• Drifting smoke is possible
• Use headlights and proceed with caution when driving through drift smoke

All prescribed burns, conducted by the Camp Lejeune Forestry Division, are coordinated with the District 4 office of the North Carolina Forest Service in New Bern.

Background

The Camp Lejeune Forestry Division schedules over 20,000 acres of prescribed burning annually. Those burns normally begin in January of each year and are completed by August. There are two seasons of burning time, dormant season and growing season. Dormant season burning is accomplished between January and the first couple of weeks of March. Dormant season burning is primarily used to maintain training ranges, reduce forest fuel loads, enhance wildlife habitat and maintain threatened and endangered species habitat. Depending on the weather, growing season burns are normally conducted between June and August. These burns are very effective at restoring native ecosystems, enhancing the herbaceous layer and improving wildlife habitat.

For more information, please call the Marine Corps Liaison for Government and External Affairs at (910) 451-7645.

Weather Advisories

Hurricane Season, June 1 to Nov 30

The annual Atlantic Hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30 each year. The MCB Camp Lejeune and MCAS New River areas will be in Topical Cyclone Condition V (TCC V) until November 30 which indicates the potential for the occurrence of destructive weather is elevated, but no specific system threatens the area. For more information on hurricane preparedness, please visit www.ready.marines.mil.

2026 Atlantic Hurricane Season Predicted to be below Normal

In its 2026 Atlantic Hurricane Season Outlook, forecasters with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) predict below-normal hurricane activity in the Atlantic basin this year.

For the six-month hurricane season, which runs annually from June 1 to November 30, NOAA predicts a 55% chance of a below-normal season, which means a range of eight to 14 total named storms (winds of 39 mph or higher) are anticipated. Of those, three to six are forecast to become hurricanes (winds of 74 mph or higher), including one to three major hurricanes (category 3, 4 or 5; with winds of 111 mph or higher).

For additional details, please visit: https://www.noaa.gov/news-release/noaa-predicts-below-normal-2026-atlantic-hurricane-season.

Eastern North Carolina has experienced its share of brushes with natural disasters, to include 2011’s Hurricane Irene, where over 1,100 homes were destroyed and over 14 inches of rain fell resulting in significant flooding in some areas across the region, and 2018’s Hurricane Florence, where over 30 inches of rain fell across 14,000 square miles dumping an estimated 10 trillion gallons of water across the area resulting in over 74,500 homes being damaged due to flooding.

While our area typically sees an increase in storms later in the summer, now is the time to prepare. For information on how to prepare and what to pack in your emergency kit, visit https://www.weather.gov/safety/hurricane.

Please note: The Camp Lejeune area will be in Tropical Cyclone Condition V (TCC V) from June 1 to November 30, which indicates the potential for the occurrence of destructive weather is elevated, but no specific system threatens the area.

Hurricane Preparedness

Successful preparation steps involve building an emergency kit, preparing a plan in the event you need to evacuate, gathering required documents and knowing where to find the latest weather forecast and storm information.

A well-stocked emergency kit should include enough non-perishable food and water for three days for each member of your family, a manual can opener, first-aid kit, cash, batteries, a flashlight, and a battery-powered radio. Don’t forget to include formula, diapers, wipes, and other essentials if you have small children. If you have pets, include food, water, and medicine as well as a crate, bedding, and documentation of their current vaccines, especially if you need to evacuate to a local shelter.

Evacuating your home may become necessary during destructive weather and it is important to have a plan now. Will you evacuate to a family members house outside the storm, move to a hotel or make your way to a local shelter? Most communities will provide shelters in the event of a major hurricane, including MCB Camp Lejeune and MCAS New River.

Shelter life is basic, but safe, with little amenities. Upon check-in to a shelter on base or the air station, medical personnel will conduct a screening and patrons over the age of 14 will need to show a valid DoD identification card. Installation shelters are open to all service members, retirees and their families.

The primary shelter on MCB Camp Lejeune is located at the Wallace Creek Fitness Center (WCFC), Bldg. WC-100 on Birch Street and is the only pet-friendly shelter on either installation. This shelter will have restrooms, showers, and cots for sleeping, but bedding and pillows are not provided. Patrons will need to bring food, water, medicine, clothing, baby items such as diapers and formula, as well as any other items you will need for at least three days.

The primary shelter on MCAS New River is located at the New River Fitness Center, Bldg. AS-4400 on Douglass Road. This shelter will have restrooms, showers, and cots for sleeping, bedding and pillows are available, but it is recommended to bring your own. Patrons will also need to bring food, water, medicine, clothing, baby items such as diapers and formula, as well as any other items you will need for at least three days.

Before you evacuate your home, gather your important or irreplaceable documents, and place them in a watertight bag or container for safe keeping. Items for consideration are birth certificates, passports, property deeds, insurance information and other documents you may need, but do not have electronic access to.

Hurricane Information & Resources

Finally, know where you will get the latest destructive weather forecasts and sign-up for local alerts from your community and from the installation you live or work on.

In the event of a pending storm, your local news and the National Weather Service in Newport/Morehead City and Wilmington will provide the latest updates on weather conditions though their websites and social media platforms.

MCB Camp Lejeune and MCAS New River will provide updates on changes to installation operations and shelter information, if necessary, via their websites, social media platforms and using the Marine Corps Mass Notification System.

To sign up for text or email alerts from MCB Camp Lejeune or MCAS New River, visit https://www.ready.marines.mil/Stay-Informed/Emergency-Actions/Mass-Notification-System/.

MCB Camp Lejeune also operates an Automated Information System 910-451-1717 that provides information on installation operations, local weather conditions and other pertinent advisories.
