DOD reported in January 2019 that critical installations are at risk of water scarcity—that is, of not having sufficient water available to meet their mission needs. According to military department officials, installations depend on water for activities such as training, weapons testing, fire suppression, and sanitation. In its 2018 Fourth National Climate Assessment, the U.S. Global Change Research Program reported that warming temperatures will continue to cause worsening droughts and the decline of surface water quality.

Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program. 2013. Assessing Impacts of Climate Change on Coastal Military Installations: Policy Implications. US Department of Defense.
Climate change will have serious implications for the ability of the Department of Defense (DoD) to maintain its natural and built infrastructure and to ensure military readiness. The 2010 Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) requires DoD to conduct climate impact assessments at its permanent installations. Several studies have been completed or are currently underway by the military Services. In particular, the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) has funded four research projects that are developing and testing the information, models, and tools needed to examine climate change impacts on coastal installations.
