On the NRA's website they have a $29.95 cd that runs through tons of information about creating a range. I think it's geared to shooting clubs wanting to open a "public" style range, but it includes things you'd never think about (besides the height of berms and what they should consist of).
Things like locations of water tables, drainage, effects on nearby wetlands, surveying for errant shot hazards, etc.
You might want to give it a look-see. It might be worth it to review, just to be prepared for gov't bureaucracy.
If you're looking for how to configure an existing range for different practical settings, I'm sure any of the combat league rangemasters could give you some pointers.
