Can someone tell me how a major military training exercise has not been coordinated and agreed to by State officials?

Coordinated perhaps, agreed to doubtful. I know several large military reservations in California, such as Camp Pendleton, Twenty-nine Palms, Camp Roberts, Vandenberg Air Base, Edwards Air Base, etc.
I seriously doubt the US federal government seeks “approval” from state government, when they execute planned operations in these places. But I expect they do notify state government, of the plans, for coordination purposes only.
