Final Environmental Assessment Demolition of Alpha Ramp, Grand Forks Air Force Base, North Dakota

Abstract

The 319 ARW is proposing to demolish A-Ramp and its associated facilities and buildings. The purposes of the project are: to remove the A-Ramp facilities and infrastructure that are no longer needed; to remove excess buildings and utilities that represent sources of potential contamination; and to remove excess buildings and facilities (including walls) that are in the 7:1 flight envelope, clear zone, and 50:1 approach-departure clearance zone and require flight-line waivers. Subsequent to removal of the facilities, buildings, roads, and associated utilities within 6 feet of the ground surface, the area would be graded for erosion and drainage control; and revegetated to suitable hay grass. The land would become unimproved hay lease land; any future use of the A-Ramp area is as yet undetermined. This EA has been prepared to evaluate the Proposed Action, No Action Alternative, and Implementation Alternatives of the Proposed Action. The evaluation of environmental impacts determined that an Environmental Impact Statement was not needed. This EA was made available to the public for review and comment.
