Default Navy using Coast for a firing range....

I would fight this if I were you, Oregon Coast people. Here in North Carolina, if you live near Camp LeJeune, you can go outside and hear the bombing practices, and it is not very peaceful.... The Navy tried to put a landing strip into NC and was unsuccessful.... please read:

Good luck, and it sounds like time is of the essence!
