Army officials have announced that training noise from Fort Riley will be heard now through Aug. 29th.
Fort Riley and the 1st Infantry Division appreciate the sacrifices made by their neighbors as they 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-post training.
The 1st Infantry Division and the other units that call Fort Riley and the Central Flint Hills 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.
Please see below for the times during which scheduled training could yield significant noise from tank, artillery and mortar certification fire:
- August 23 through August 29: There WILL be loud noise during all hours.
