Naval Outlying Landing Field (NOLF) Holley was a naval outlying landing field of the larger Naval Air Station Whiting Field located within the community of Navarre, Florida. The two runways were each 3,600 feet (1,100 meters) long.[1] The runways were restricted to limited military use only; however, in 2017, the Gulf Power company was authorized to build a solar power plant on the facility grounds.[2][3] The plant now provides power for some 18,000 homes, making it one of the largest solar fields in the region.[3] The solar panels completely cover what were once the runways.[citation needed]
