Environmental Assessment of Proposed Visiting Quarters Facilities at Pittsburgh International Airport - Air Reserve Station, Pennsylvania

Abstract

The 911 Airlift Wing (911 A W) is an Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) tenant unit at Pittsburgh International Airport (lAP), Pennsylvania. The 911 AW has proposed to demolish six of its existing Visiting Quarter (VQ) facilities and construct four new VQ facilities. The Proposed Action and the No Action Alternative were assessed in the attached Environmental Assessment (EA). The 911 AW is currently equipped with nine assigned C-130H Hercules cargo/transport aircraft. Providing both strategic, long-range airlift support to the active duty U.S. Air Force (USAF) and training for assigned Reservists, the 911 AW is, during peacetime, under the command and control of Headquarters (HQ) AFRC. In war or during times of national emergency, the 911 AW is under the direction of Air Mobility Command (AMC).
