Environmental Assessment for Routine Basewide Military-Sponsored Training Exercises, Edwards Air Force Base, California

Abstract

This report presents the results of the Environmental Assessment (EA) that evaluates the potential environmental effects associated with conducting a variety of basewide operational readiness exercises (OREs) and training activities. This EA was requested by the 95th Air Base Wing, Civil Engineer and Transportation Directorate, Environmental Management Division at Edwards AFB, California, and was conducted by JT3/CH2M HILL, from September 2006 through February 2007. Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), this EA has been prepared to analyze the potential environmental consequences of the proposed action. The proposed project would be an increase in basewide OREs to expand from the current quantity with a wider range of scenario simulations. This increase would enable base organizations to comply with training requirements, improve operational readiness, and better prepare for deployment.
