This book was released on 1996 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act, K.I. Sawyer AFB was closed in September 1995. This Environmental Impact Statement has been prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act to analyze the potential environmental consequences of the disposal and reasonable alternatives for reuse of the base. The document includes analyses of community setting, land use and aesthetics, transportation, utilities, hazardous materials and hazardous waste management, geology and soils, water resources, air quality, noise, biological resources, cultural resources, and environmental justice. Four reuse alternatives were examined: a Proposed Action that features air cargo, regional aircraft maintenance, regional passenger, and general aviation uses of the runway with an industrial component being developed in the military family housing area; an International Wayport Alternative that consists of international passenger, air cargo, and aircraft maintenance uses, as well as regional passenger and general aviation uses, and a large residential area; a Commercial Aviation Alternative that proposes a regional commercial airport with an Upper Peninsula vocational/educational training facility; and a Recreation Alternative that would retain more than 80 percent of the base for public facilities recreation land uses. All alternatives include industrial, institutional, commercial, and residential uses. A No-Action Alternative, which would entail no reuse of the base property, was also evaluated. Potential environmental impacts are increased aircraft and traffic-related noise levels, traffic, and emissions of air pollutants over closure baseline conditions. Roadway improvements may be needed to prevent unacceptable traffic congestion. (MM).

Download or read book Environmental Impact Analysis Process Draft Environmental Impact Statement Proposed Closure of Kincheloe Air Force Base Michigan written by DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE WASHINGTON D C. and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The imperative need to manage the resources of the Air Force with less while maintaining the combat capability of its forces has led to a renewed review of all base operating functions, activities and installations. The Congress has also recognized this need and has mandated reductions in headquarters and support manpower. In this regard, the USAF has determined that the following candidate action would reduce excess capability and result in substantial resource savings without detriment to combat capability, and that this candidate action merits detailed study. The action is to: inactivate the 449th Bombardment Wing and its supporting organizations, close Kincheloe AFB MI by end of FY 77 and declare the base excess to Air Force requirements. The 16 B-52H aircraft would be relocated, 14 to Ellsworth AFB SD and 2 to K.I. Sawyer AFB MI. The 16 KC-135 aircraft assigned to Kincheloe AFB would be relocated and transferred to the Air Reserve Forces. The FY 4/77 Kincheloe manpower authorizations of approximately 2700 military and 750 civilian positions would be eliminated.

Download or read book Slow Violence and the Environmentalism of the Poor written by Rob Nixon and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The violence wrought by climate change, toxic drift, deforestation, oil spills, and the environmental aftermath of war takes place gradually and often invisibly. Using the innovative concept of "slow violence" to describe these threats, Rob Nixon focuses on the inattention we have paid to the attritional lethality of many environmental crises, in contrast with the sensational, spectacle-driven messaging that impels public activism today. Slow violence, because it is so readily ignored by a hard-charging capitalism, exacerbates the vulnerability of ecosystems and of people who are poor, disempowered, and often involuntarily displaced, while fueling social conflicts that arise from desperation as life-sustaining conditions erode. In a book of extraordinary scope, Nixon examines a cluster of writer-activists affiliated with the environmentalism of the poor in the global South. By approaching environmental justice literature from this transnational perspective, he exposes the limitations of the national and local frames that dominate environmental writing. And by skillfully illuminating the strategies these writer-activists deploy to give dramatic visibility to environmental emergencies, Nixon invites his readers to engage with some of the most pressing challenges of our time.
Download or read book The Path of a Genocide written by Astri Suhrke and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Great Lakes region of Africa has seen dramatic changes. After a decade of war, repression, and genocide, loosely allied regimes have replaced old-style dictatorships. The Path of a Genocide examines the decade (1986-97) that brackets the 1994 genocide in Rwanda. This collection of essays is both a narrative of that event and a deep reexamination of the international role in addressing humanitarian issues and complex emergencies.Nineteen donor countries and seventeen multilateral organizations, international agencies, and international nongovernmental organizations pooled their efforts for an in-depth evaluation of the international response to the conflict in Rwanda. Original studies were commissioned from scholars from Uganda, Rwanda, Zaire, Ethiopia, Norway, Great Britain, France, Canada, and the United States. While each chapter in this volume focuses on one dimension of the Rwanda conflict, together they tell the story of this unfolding genocide and the world's response.The Path of a Genocide offers readers a perspective in sharp contrast to the tendency to treat a peace agreement as the end to conflict. This is a detailed effort to make sense of the political crisis and genocide in Rwanda and the effects it had on its neighbors.
