Environmental Assessment of the Privatization of Military Family Housing at Andrews Air Force Base, Maryland

Abstract

Pursuant to the USAF Housing Privatization Program, the USAF proposes to convey its MFH units, grant leases of land, and transfer responsibility for providing housing to a private developer at Andrews AFB. Andrews AFB has 1,480 MFH units. Under the Proposed Action, all 1,480 MFH units would be conveyed to a private developer and approximately 406.5 acres would be leased to the private developer. The private developer would retain 490 newly built or recently renovated units, renovate an additional 139 units, build 258 new units, and demolish 851 units, resulting in an end-state inventory of 887 MFH units. This EA has been prepared to evaluate the Proposed Action and alternatives, including the No Action Alternative, and to aid in determining whether an Environmental Impact Statement is needed. Resource categories that are considered in the impact analysis are noise, land use, air quality, safety, geological resources, water resources, biological resources, cultural resources, socioeconomics and environmental justice, infrastructure, and hazardous materials and wastes. The EA was made available to the public for a 30-day public review period.
