Environmental Assessment for Construction of Small Arms Range at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma

Abstract

The proposed action is to demolish the existing range, and construct a fully-contained 25 meter small arms range with an associated Combat Arms Training and Maintenance (CATM) section in accordance with Engineering Technical Letter (ETL) 08-11 , AFH 32-1084 and other government specifications that apply to firing ranges. Buildings 1023, 1024, and 1025 will be demolished, and lead contamination from the existing range will be remediated or reclaimed if possible. The proposed site for the new range is south/southwest of Building 1025, with a parking lot constructed in the area of Building 1024, with an entrance at the east end of the current Building 1025. Building 1050 will be retained as a classroom and office space for the new Small Arms Range.
