General Plan Environmental Assessment for Joint Base Andrews-Naval Air Facility, Washington, Maryland
Abstract
Joint Base Andrews-Naval Air Facility, Washington, Maryland (Andrews) is proposing to update the installation's General Plan. Major changes have occurred at Andrews since the last General Plan was completed in 2003. Some of the key changes to the existing conditions at Andrews since the last General Plan Update are implementation of Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) initiatives, privatization of Military Family Housing (MFH), privatization of the water and natural gas systems and other utility systems, construction of the William B. Jones building, and the creation of Joint Base Andrews-Naval Air Facility, Washington, Maryland. The General Plan Update will provide the installations and unit commanders at Andrews a current vision for future development that creates efficiencies in base operations and resolves incompatible land use issues on the installation. The U.S. Air Force, Air Force District Washington (AFDW), and Andrews have prepared this environmental assessment (EA) in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA); the Council of Environmental Quality regulations implementing the NEPA; and Title 32, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 989, as amended, The Environmental Impact Analysis Process (EIAP). The Proposed Action would implement the projects contained within the General Plan Update at Andrews with proposed improvements that would include construction, demolition, renovation, and maintenance activities within the main base, the Brandywine Receiver Station, and the Davidsonville Transmitter Station.
