Environmental Assessment: Proposed Fiber Optic Cable, Wendover Radar Site, Wendover, Utah
Abstract
Hill AFB proposes to accommodate current United States Air Force (USAF) missions by installing an underground fiber optic communications cable for use at the Wendover Radar Site. The fiber optic cable would carry electronic data from Wendover Radar Site to Wendover Peak. The proposed action could be implemented with minor short-term environmental impacts such as air emissions and controlling erosion during construction activities. Following the construction phase, backfill and site restoration operations would prevent erosion of the site. Generation of hazardous waste would not be anticipated from the proposed action or the no action alternative; however, waste management plans and adequate spill response resources exist should the need arise. No long-term environmental impacts or cumulative impacts are expected from the proposed action or the no action alternative.
