Environmental Assessment, Le Claire Base Construction Storage Yard Relocation, Le Claire, Iowa

Abstract

It is proposed to acquire lands adjacent to the LeClaire base complex to provide better management, security, and control of Government property used in connection with the construction storage yard relocation. The Corps' maintenance equipment is presently stored on an artificially filled parcel of land which is owned by the State of Iowa, subject to the Government's paramount easement for navigation. The present storage yard is remotely located and separate from the Service Base complex. A public road, which is heavily used year-round by fishermen and recreationists, borders the storage site on the north. This State-maintained road leads to a boat ramp. The storage yard is protected on three sides by a metal fence with the open face toward the Mississippi River. The storage area is bordered on the east by a public parking lot which is also frequently used by fishermen year-round. (sdw)
