Environmental Assessment for Tinker Aerospace Complex Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma
Abstract
Tinker AFB is considering leasing the former GM Oklahoma City assembly plant to the south of Tinker AFB. This 430-acre parcel of land with 3.8 million square feet (SF) of industrial and manufacturing facility space provides an opportunity to relocate and consolidate numerous Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center (OC-ALC) maintenance activities into one facility known as TAC. In turn, approximately 1.9 million SF of deteriorated or substandard facilities on Tinker AFB would be demolished, avoiding approximately $470 million in military construction (MILCON) funds needed to perform required renovations on these facilities. The TAC initiative would also provide the OC-ALC with valuable space that could be leveraged in the future for attracting additional depot-level maintenance workload. The following resources were identified for study in this EA: Noise, Land Use, Air Quality Earth Resources, Biological Resources, Cultural Resources, Water Resources, Hazardous Substances, Safety, Utilities and Infrastructure, Socioeconomic Resources, and Environmental Justice and Environmental Health and Safety of Children.
