Final Environmental Assessment Cape San Blas Towers Project Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, RCS 02-852 & 03-190

Abstract

This EA has been prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act to analyze the potential environmental consequences from the proposed installation and operation of two towers at the Cape San Blas property of Eglin AFB. The document includes analysis of land use and aesthetics, asbestos, lead-based paint, geology and soils, water resources, biological resources, and cultural resources. The Proposed Action consists of installation of a 500-foot-tall antenna tower and a 95- to 150-foot-tall radar calibration target tower, renovation of an existing building for use as a tower support structure, and removal of an existing 230-foot antenna tower. The No-Action Alternative, which would entail no installation of new towers, renovation of existing buildings, or removal of an existing tower, was also evaluated. No significant adverse environmental impacts are expected from the proposed towers project.
