Deactivation of the SR-71 Program at Beale Air Force Base, California

Abstract

Major issues to be addressed in this EA were identified through discussions with USAF personnel who are familiar with the mission and operation requirements of the SR-71 program, and review of a previous EA prepared by the USAF dated September 1988 for a proposed, but unrelated, mission change for SR- 71 and T-38 aircraft at Beale AFB. Based on these discussions and review, it was determined that the proposed action and alternatives would have the potential to affect the following environmental disciplines: air resources; water resources; biological resources; noise; socioeconomics; air safety; and waste disposal. Therefore, these environmental disciplines have been investigated and addressed in this EA.
