Environmental Assessment for Education Center Buckley Air Force Base, Colorado
Abstract
The United States Air Force (USAF) has prepared this EA in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act to evaluate the potential environmental and social impacts from the construction and operation of the proposed Education Center. The EA considers the No Action Alternative and three action alternatives, including the Proposed Action, for the proposed Education Center. The proposed Education Center is required to support the 460th Air Base Wing mission and improve quality of life for on-site, off-site, and retired personnel. The environmental resources potentially affected by the proposed action and alternatives include: land use; socioeconomics; air quality; noise; soils; water resources; biological resources, including vegetation, wildlife, and threatened, endangered or other sensitive species; hazardous materials and waste; solid waste and pollution prevention; transportation; utilities; and environmental justice. Based on the nature of the activities that would occur during the construction and operation of the Education Center, the USAF has determined that minimal or no adverse impacts to the above resources are anticipated.
