Berryville
Berryville - FEMA facility located east of Eureka Springs off Hwy. 62
The location is extremely vague, but following Highway 62, I found nothing at all out of the ordinary.
Blythville AFB
Blythville AFB - Closed airbase now being used as camp. New wooden barracks have been constructed at this location. Classic decorations - guard towers, barbed wire, high fences.
Actually spelled Blytheville, the name was changed in 1988 to Eaker Air Force Base - reflecting the little knowledge about these locations the authors of the FEMA camp lists actually have[20]. The base was closed in 1991 and over the years changed hands, and at one point was even a flower distribution center. It is now a large part of Arkansas International Airport[21]. Much of the "decorations" have been removed with the removal of the military from the location.
Ft. Chaffee
Ft. Chaffee (near Fort Smith, Arkansas) - Has new runway for aircraft, new camp facility with cap of 40,000 prisoners.
During World War II Ft. Chaffee was a POW camp that housed 3,000 German POWs[22]. In 1975 it served as a refugee camp for Vietnamese following the Fall of Saigon. Again in 1980 it served as a refugee camp following the Mariel Boatlift. In 2005 it housed refugees following Hurricane Katrina[22].
So it's ready to receive refugees, but not 40,000 - more like 4,000.
Hope
Hope
I wasn't able to find evidence of a FEMA camp, former POW camp, federal prison, military installation, or anything in Hope, Arkansas. It's just a small town of about 10,000 people[23].
Jerome
Chicot/Drew Counties - site of WWII Japanese camps
Jerome was home to a Japanese relocation camp that was later a German POW camp. The camp here is among nine others that is going through preservation as a historical site for tours[24].
Omaha
Northeast of Berryville near Missouri state line, on Hwy 65 south of old wood processing plant. Possible crematory facility.
Let me get this straight, any location that's an old industrial complex - no matter how overgrown and dilapidated, is potentially part of this vast conspiracy?
Pine Bluff Arsenal
This location also is the repository for B-Z nerve agent, which causes sleepiness, dizziness, stupor; admitted use is for civilian control.
Pine Bluff Arsenal does indeed manufacture chemical weapons, as well as BZ. How that makes it a FEMA camp? I have no idea. There's no evidence at all to support that[25].
Rohwer
Descha County - site of WWII Japanese camps
Rohwer was, indeed, a Japanese interment camp, however it's not operation and was declared a historical landmark in 1992[26].
