Environmental Assessment for the Relocation of the Marine Corps Reserve Training Center, Military Police Company C, 4th Force Service Support Group from Armed Forces Reserve Center, Dayton, Ohio, to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio

Abstract

This Environmental Assessment (EA) was developed to assess the potential environmental consequences associated with the construction of a new Marine Corps Reserve Training Center (MCRTC) and Vehicle Maintenance Facility (VMF). The MCRTC and VMF will be for the United States Marine Corps (USMC) Reserve Military Police Company C, 4th Force Service Support Group (FSSG) currently located at the (AFRC) in Dayton, Ohio. The proposed action is the relocation of the Marine MCRTC and VMF for Company C, Reserve Military Policy (MP) Company, 4th Force Service Support Group to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB) located in southwestern Ohio. MP Company C is a unit consisting of approximately 170 Marine reservists supported by 11 full-time, active-duty Marines. The city of Dayton owns the AFRC, which was constructed in 1947, and renews the lease with the USMC Reserves. This lease expires on 30 June 2008. The USMC Reserves has decided not to renew this lease in the future due to (1) cost, (2) lack of security, (3) condition of facilities, and (4) desire to be located at DoD facilities. The AFRC is located in a high-crime area and does not meet local codes for fire, emergency response, plumbing, and electrical systems, and lacks secure ingress and egress. Four alternatives were considered for construction of a MCRTC and VMF at WPAFB, including No Action. Alternative 1, the preferred alternative, is located near the State Route 844 Interchange (adjacent to the Veterinarian Clinic, Building 1435). Alternative 2 is located at the intersection of National Road and Kauffman Avenue (near Building 450), and Alternative 3 is near Wright Airfield (Runway 9/27), in the vicinity of the National Museum of the United States Air Force.
