Final Environmental Assessment for Proposed Construction III Projects Buckley Air Force Base, Colorado

Abstract

The United States Air Force (USAF) conducted an Environmental Assessment (EA) of the potential environmental and social consequences of implementing proposed Construction III projects at Buckley Air Force Base (AFB), pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 (42 United States Code 432 I to 4370d), Council of Environmental Quality's (CEQ) implementing regulations ( 40 Code of Federal Regulations Part 1500-1508), and the Air Force Environmental Impact Analysis Process (EIAP) as promulgated in 32 CFR Part 989 (EIAP, 6 July 1999, as amended by 66 FR 16866,28 March 2001 ). The EA is incorporated by reference herein. To support the mission requirements of the 460th Space Wing at Buckley AFB, the USAF proposes to construct and operate four facilities planned for Fiscal Years 2006 and 2007: a Small Arms Range Complex, a Logistics Readiness Complex, a Consolidated Services Facility, and a Communications Center at Buckley AFB. These four projects are included in the $175 million, 5-year capital improvements program at the base to achieve the overall goal of turning a former Air National Guard base into a fully functioning, active-duty AFB.
