Environmental Impact Analysis of Proposed Realignment of Forces at Kincheloe AFB, Michigan.
Abstract
The proposed action involves closure of Kincheloe AFB MI. Present strength of Kincheloe AFB is 2698 military and 467 civilian positions. These positions would be elimiated, except for the required increase noted below for Ellsworth AFB SD and K.I. Sawyer AFB MI. The sixteen B-52H aircraft at Kincheloe AFB will be relocated, fourteen to Ellsworth AFB and two to K.I. Sawyer AFB. Personnel reassignments commensurate with aircraft relocation will be increases in military authorizations of 190 at Ellsworth AFB and 112 at K.I. Sawyer AFB. Alternative 1 involves closure of Wurtsmith AFB MI. Present strength of Wurtsmith AFB is 2504 military and 419 civilian positions. These positions would be eliminated except for the required increases noted below for Ellsworth AFB SD and K.I. Sawyer AFB MI. The sixteen B-52H aircraft at Wurtsmith AFB will be relocated, fourteen to Ellsworth AFB and two to K.I. Sawyer AFB. Personnel reassignments commensurate with aircraft relocation will be increases in military authorizations of 190 at Ellsworth AFB and 112 at K.I. Sawyer AFB. Alternative 2 is a no action alternative; all installations remain in operation at present strengths.
