United States Air Force Environmental Assessment: Construction of Chapel Addition at Tinker AFB, Oklahoma

Abstract

Tinker Air Force Base (Tinker AFB, the base) has completed an environmental assessment (EA) to determine environmental and socio-economic impacts of construction of an addition to the base chapel that would enhance and complement current chapel services. The preferred location for the addition is adjacent to the existing chapel. This site was assessed and approved for a smaller addition in a 1997 EA, but the addition was never built. No other action alternatives were considered. The no-action alternative is continued operation of the base chapel without the addition. Descriptions of these alternatives are provided in the EA. This document assesses the alternatives to determine whether there exists a practicable alternative to construction of the addition to the chapel that would have less or no impacts to the floodplain of Crutcho Creek.
