Environmental Assessment: Demolish 452 at Grand Forks Air Force Base

Abstract

The purpose of the proposed action is to demolish 1800 square feet of excess facility space in building 452, previously known as the SABER office, in-house by CES in FY 06. Work includes asbestos and lead based paint removal abatement/removal, building demolition, excavation, slab removal, backfill, grading, removal of debris, and site restoration. The Grand Forks AFB Facility Board approved relocation of the SABER office on 23 Mar 2005, and demolition of 452 is proposed as a CES in-house project. The SABER office has been relocated to building 412, so there is no longer any need for this facility at Grand Forks AFB. The building was constructed in 1977 as an office building. It is a 30' x 60' metal building with concrete floor. The facility identified for demolition has been classified substandard, and repair to this facility would exceed 70% of the replacement value. The facility has been plagued with safety and health concerns of mold, fungus and high humidity caused by problematic under-floor heat ducting. The windows, roof and exterior fail to meet Air Force architectural standards. This project supports facility consolidation and reduction initiatives.
