Book Implementing Base Realignment and Closure Decisions in Compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act

Download or read book Implementing Base Realignment and Closure Decisions in Compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act written by and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Signing the Records of Decision (RODs) for U.S. Army Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Environmental Impact Statements (EISs) has been impeded by modified proposed action, lack of environmental information, and unclear definition of responsibilities in the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process. This policy analysis provides a framework to implement the spirit and intent of NEPA in accordance with BRAC mandates. Changes in U.S. Army force structure require base realignments and closures. These actions may not proceed without adequate implementation of NEPA. The issues and problems associated with implementing NEPA for BRAC are complex and difficult to define concisely. This policy analysis attempts to identify the underlying problems of BRAC and evaluates alternative strategies to overcome difficulties in preparing environmental analyses and documentation. These strategies focus on improving decision-making, NEPA flexibility, and the overall substantive quality of environmental analysis and documentation.

Book Draft Finding of No Significant Lowry Air Force Base Realignment  Environmental Assessment for Lowry Air Force Base Realignment

Download or read book Draft Finding of No Significant Lowry Air Force Base Realignment Environmental Assessment for Lowry Air Force Base Realignment written by and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Base Closure Act, Public Law 100-526, directs the Secretary of Defense to close and realign all military installations recommended by the Commission on Base Realignment and Closure. As a result of the Commission's recommendations, Lowry Air Force Base, Colorado, will absorb an additional training mission due to the closure of Chanute Air Force Base in Illinois. This Environmental Assessment has been conducted in order to comply with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 (Public Law 91-190), which requires Federal agencies to evaluate and disclose the environmental impacts of a proposed Federal action. The EA was prepared in accordance with the Council on Environmental Quality's Regulations for Implementing the Procedural Provisions of NEPA (40 CFR 1500-1508) and Air Force Regulation 19-2, Environmental Impact Analysis Process. Procedural requirements of other pertinent environmental legislation, including the Endangered Species Act, the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, and the National Historic Preservation Act, are also addressed and compliance status is documented. Only the effects of the additional mission at Lowry AFB are addressed in this assessment. The effects of the closure of Chanute AFB are being addressed in a separate document. As provided for in the Base Closure Act, the need, purpose, or reason for the realignment does not have to be addressed in the NEPA document. Therefore, the purpose of the action is addressed only to the extent necessary for an understanding of the proposed project. A detailed description of the project is presented in the next section, Alternatives Including the Proposed Action.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is a follow-on to the Inspector General, DoD, Report No. 97-061, "Impact of the National Environmental Policy Act on Base Closures." That report discusses issues concerning the National Environmental Policy Act and the Defense base realignment and closure policies in the Military Departments. The Office of the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (Environmental Security) asked us to perform an evaluation to determine whether provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act are affecting the Defense base realignment and closure program. Officials at the Office of the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (Environmental Security) requested a briefing on our findings because they needed the information to decide whether the National Environmental Policy Act, the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act of 1990, or other legislation associated with 1995 base closures required revision. We briefed our findings in July 1995. This report expands on issues first reported during the July 1995 briefing concerning the effects of the National Environmental Policy Act on base closure actions and interim leases. The objective of the evaluation was to determine what problems exist concerning the application of the National Environmental Policy Act to the base closure process and to recommend approaches for problem resolution.

Book Base Realignment and Closure  BRAC  Cleanup Plan  Umatilla Depot Activity  Hermiston  Oregon  Version 1

Download or read book Base Realignment and Closure BRAC Cleanup Plan Umatilla Depot Activity Hermiston Oregon Version 1 written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Cleanup Plan (BCP) describes the status, management and response strategy, and action items related to Umatilla Depot Activity (UMDA) ongoing environmental restoration and associated compliance programs. These programs support restoration of the installation property, which is necessary to meet the requirements for property disposal and reuse activities associated with the closure of the installation. The Commission on Base Closures recommended UMDA for realignment. The realignment will be chemical demilitarization (Chem Demil) of chemical agents stored at UMDA. The ongoing Chem Demil prevented closure of UMDA because the U.S. Army cannot begin on-site destruction of the chemical agents until approximately 1996, which falls outside the Commission's allowed timeframe for completing closures. The depot will be realigned to the maximum extent possible in order to facilitate closure as soon as the Chem Demil mission is complete. The scope of the BCP considers the following regulatory mechanisms: the BRAC Act; National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA); Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) as amended by the Community Environmental Response Facilitation Act; Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA); and other applicable laws. The BCP is a planning document, and the information and assumptions presented may not necessarily have complete approval from the U.S. Army and/or federal and state regulatory agencies. The BCP is a dynamic document that will be updated regularly to reflect the current status and strategies of remedial actions (RAs).
