This book was released on 1990 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The action evaluated in this Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is the realignment of Cannon Air Force Base, New Mexico. The realignment is the result of the recommendations of the Defense Secretary's Commission on Base Realignment and Closure, from legislative requirements in the Base Realignment and Closure Act (Public Law 100-526), and of U.S. Air Force plans to enhance mission readiness and national security. The realignment of Cannon Air Force Base will involve the transfer of aircraft with the net result that the number of F-111s at the Base will increase by 46 planes. The associated increase in personnel will be from the current level of 3984 to 5723. The numbers of sorties and flying hours are expected to essentially double for a total of 16,500 sorties and 36,000 flying hours per year. All of these flight operations will be at subsonic speeds. In order to maintain operational efficiency and combat readiness under this realignment, on-Base military construction, creation of a new Mount Dora Military Operations Area, continued full use of the Pecos Military Operations Area, increased use of the Melrose Range, increased use of Military Training Routes, and increased aircraft operations at the Base are proposed. Off-Base flight operations will be over low population areas. Provisions of the Act preclude the examination of any alternative actions to realignment. (SDW).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Commission recommended transfer of assets from George AFB to MHAFB involving 94 F-4E and G electronic combat aircraft and approximately 3,500 personnel. To accommodate the additional aircraft and personnel at MHAFB, the 366th Tactical Fighter Wing (TFW) at MHAFB will transfer 35 F-111A aircraft and approximately 1,600 personnel to other units. This will result in a net increase of 59 aircraft operating from MHAFB. The realignment of MHAFB will enhance command and control of electronic warfare operations by consolidating F-4G electronic combat and surface-to-air suppression functions with EF-111 electronic jamming air defense suppression aircraft (described in Appendix A) and will increase mission effectiveness at a reduced cost. The nature of the missions and combat roles assigned to the F-4s being transferred to MHAFB will require more range time per aircraft than for the departing F-111As. It is expected that the training requirements for the F-4s alone will nearly triple the annual usage of the SCR.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume, a preliminary, groundbreaking effort planned and produced within a prescribed period of time, is intended as a reference work offering historical perspective on current basing issues. It examines four critical periods in the history of USAF basing. During the first period, from 1907 through August 1947, expansion of the Army's air force in response to two major wars established a foundation for the current basing network. The second period, September 1947 through 1960, saw a rapid expansion to support the rise of the United States Air Force as the major instrument of strategic deterrence. Radical retrenchment, followed by politically enforced stability, characterized the third period, 1961 to 1987. From1961 through the mid-1970s, base infrastructure contracted steadily in response to changes in military threat, budgetary pressures, and the retirement of obsolete aircraft.From 1977 through 1987, strict interpretations of the National Environmental Policy Act effectively paralyzed basing actions, despite a moderate expansion of the force after 1980. During the fourth period, 1988–2003, the ending of theCold War resulted in a substantial drawdown of force structure. The reality of sharply reduced forces, in combination with budgetary pressures, created a political consensus that permitted base closures and realignments to resume. Through1987, the decision to open or close bases was, at least formally, strictly an executive branch prerogative. Beginning in 1988, the establishment of the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Commission initiated the formal participation of Congress in basing decisions.The decision to open or close bases during the first three periods — 1907 through August 1947, September 1947 through 1960, and 1961 to 1988— was, at least formally, strictly an executive branch prerogative. During the fourth period,1988–2003, the establishment of the Base Realignment and Closure process initiated formal participation by Congress in basing decisions. In 2003, the Department of Defense began preparing for yet another Base Realignment and Closure Commission Review intended to eliminate unnecessary infrastructure. This study offers the public a historical perspective on BRAC-directed actions by documenting and explaining rationales that have informed the decisions to locate the major operational units and activities within the continental United States, excluding Alaska,during these periods.

This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every airman or person interested in the art and science of air and space warfare should read this book. True to the direction of Gen James Jamerson, former deputy commander in chief of US European Command, and the author, the Air University Balkans Air Campaign Study (BACS) has emerged as a balanced and wide-ranging discussion of the Deliberate Force air campaign, which occurred during the fall of 1995. Exploiting the sources and resources available to them, the BACS team members have laid out a mile-wide and foot-deep exploration of the context, theoretical foundations, planning, execution, leadership, and effects of this milestone event. In so doing, they have contributed significantly to our knowledge about the political, military, technical, and human elements that shape air campaigns and influence their outcomes. Moreover, the BACS offers insights into persistent questions of military planners, such as the relationship of diplomacy and war; the synergy of land power, space power, and airpower; and the role of chance and "fog" in the conduct and outcome of air and space warfare. Finally, because the BACS team from the start wrote this report for immediate declassification, virtually the entire report and all of its substantive elements are available here as an open source, only four years after the event. Given its scope, this book should contain material of interest to all aerospace-warfare practitioners and/or thinkers, regardless of their area of expertise.

Book excerpt: This is the fourth volume in an operational and chronological series covering the U.S. Marine Corps’ participation in the Vietnam War. This volume details the change in focus of the III Marine Amphibious Force (III MAF), which fought in South Vietnam’s northernmost corps area, I Corps. This volume, like its predecessors, concentrates on the ground war in I Corps and III MAF’s perspective of the Vietnam War as an entity. It also covers the Marine Corps participation in the advisory effort, the operations of the two Special Landing Forces of the U.S. Navy’s Seventh Fleet, and the services of Marines with the staff of the U.S. Military Assistance Command, Vietnam. There are additional chapters on supporting arms and logistics, and a discussion of the Marine role in Vietnam in relation to the overall American effort.

Download or read book Alternatives for Managing the Nation s Complex Contaminated Groundwater Sites written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-02-27 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across the United States, thousands of hazardous waste sites are contaminated with chemicals that prevent the underlying groundwater from meeting drinking water standards. These include Superfund sites and other facilities that handle and dispose of hazardous waste, active and inactive dry cleaners, and leaking underground storage tanks; many are at federal facilities such as military installations. While many sites have been closed over the past 30 years through cleanup programs run by the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. EPA, and other state and federal agencies, the remaining caseload is much more difficult to address because the nature of the contamination and subsurface conditions make it difficult to achieve drinking water standards in the affected groundwater. Alternatives for Managing the Nation's Complex Contaminated Groundwater Sites estimates that at least 126,000 sites across the U.S. still have contaminated groundwater, and their closure is expected to cost at least $110 billion to $127 billion. About 10 percent of these sites are considered "complex," meaning restoration is unlikely to be achieved in the next 50 to 100 years due to technological limitations. At sites where contaminant concentrations have plateaued at levels above cleanup goals despite active efforts, the report recommends evaluating whether the sites should transition to long-term management, where risks would be monitored and harmful exposures prevented, but at reduced costs.
