Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: KLAXON! The alarm immediately sent the aircrews at Beale Air Force Base, California, scrambling to their alert aircraft in a race to get airborne first. The KC-135 tankers were usually the quickest to taxi out, with the B-52 bombers following closely behind. Soon, the air filled with the rumble of engines as aircraft roared down the runway trailing great clouds of exhaust and disappeared into the skies of Northern California. It was a dramatic scenario practiced many times during the Cold War and one that Universal Pictures filmed at Beale AFB for its movie A Gathering of Eagles, starring Rock Hudson and Rod Taylor.

Download or read book Ground water Conditions at Beale Air Force Base and Vicinity California written by R. W. Page and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ground-water conditions were studied in a 168-square-mile area between the Sierra Nevada and the Feather River in Yuba County, Calif. The area is in the eastern part of the Sacramento Valley and includes most of Beale Air Force Base. Source, occurrence, movement, and chemical quality of the ground water were evaluated. Ground water occurs in sedimentary and volcanic rocks of Tertiary and Quaternary age. The base of the freshwater is in the undifferentiated sedimentary rocks of Oligocene and Eocene age, that contain water of high dissolved-solids concentration. The ground water occurs under unconfined and partly confined conditions. At Beale Air Force Base it is at times partly confined. Recharge is principally from the rivers. Pumpage in the study area was estimated to be 129,000 acre-feet in 1975. In the 1960's, water levels in most parts of the study area declined less rapidly than in earlier years or became fairly stable. In the 1970's, water levels at Beale Air Force Base declined only slightly. Spacing of wells on the base and rates of pumping are such that excessive pumping interference is avoided. Water quality at the base and throughout the study area is generally good. Dissolved-solids concentrations are 700 to 900 milligrams per liter in the undifferentiated sedimentary rocks beneath the base well field.

Download or read book Environmental Impact Statement for Realignment of Beale Air Force Base California written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This statement assesses the potential environmental impacts from realignment of Beale AFB, located near Marysville, California. Realignment will increase on-base activity and require construction of new facilities. Existing air quality may be affected by both construction and operational activities. Operational impacts will not be significant with respect to local and regional air quality because operations will occur within the same air basin as they did at Mather AFB. Biological habitats including vernal pools and other wetlands and riparian habitats may be affected by construction of new facilities; however, no Federal- or State-listed threatened or endangered species are expected to be affected. Realignment will create additional peak period round trips, resulting in impacts on base access, intersections, and parking lots. Portions of the water distribution system and the water treatment facilities will have to be upgraded to meet the increased demand expected as a result of the realignment. If the potential presence of abandoned underground storage tanks in areas planned for construction of new facilities and asbestos-containing materials in buildings planned for demolition or modification is verified, confirmatory studies and appropriate remedial actions will be required. The realignment will have a positive effect on the local and regional economy.
