Environmental Assessment, Construction of an Information Technology Center, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base

Abstract

Currently, WP AFB lacks a single center for information technology development, integration, and transfer. Organizations that provide information technology support are located in several substandard facilities at the base. The current locations of these organizations and the use of substandard equipment reduce and prohibit the ability for efficient and comprehensive information technology development, resulting in degraded support for the warfighter. The proposed action of constructing a consolidated lTC would eliminate these issues and provide for a center that will establish internationally recognized center of information technology excellence. The proposed action is to construct a multi-building lTC. The proposed location for the construction of the lTC is at the site of former Buildings 20125 and 20127, which have been demolished, and Building 20126, which is scheduled for demolition. This EA was prepared using the design information available to date. To meet the anticipated space requirement of 500,000 gross square feet (gsf), the proposed center would be a five-phase project consisting of the independent construction of one building per phase. Each building would be approximately 100,000 to 130,000 gsf and would include a basement and a maximum of three stories above grade. Parking lot construction would be phased to coordinate with the construction of the buildings and maintain appropriate staging areas. Seventh Street would be eliminated (EA Section 2.1 ). Under the No Action alternative, the information technology functions would not be consolidated or upgraded. This alternative serves as a baseline against which the Proposed Action can be compared (EA Section 2.2).
