Environmental Assessment for Demolition of Building 633 at Langley Air Force Base, Virginia
Abstract
This EA describes the potential environmental consequences resulting from a proposal to demolish Building 633. Historically used as a Seaplane Hangar, this obsolete, vacant facility will be replaced by parking. Seven resource categories received a thorough evaluation to identify potential impacts. An increase to safety risks during demolition would be mitigated by employing standard safety practices. Any noise associated with this action would be temporary and limited to daytime hours. Air Quality would not be significantly affected and any asbestos material would be removed prior to demolition. The action would have the potential to disturb ERP sites; a waiver from ACC would be necessary, which would identify appropriate control measures. Parking placed at the demo site would be consistent with the Base General Plan, and any transportation impacts would be minor. Cultural Resources would be adversely impacted; consultation with the SHPO has been completed and specifies the mitigation necessary for this action, to include documentation of the resource and other efforts. This action would have no significant effects on Physical Resources.
