Environmental Assessment for Construction of Consolidated Base Support Center
Abstract
Moody Air Force Base (AFB) proposes to construct a Consolidated Base Support Center that will house most wing functions including Wing Headquarters, Mission Support Group Headquarters, Mission Support Squadron, Military and Civilian Personnel, Area Defense Counsel, and Law Center. The purpose of this action is to house all the administrative staff and working officers in a central, energy efficient facility to ensure effective coordination and control of related command functions. Currently, these base functions are located in seven undersized disjunct facilities, which leads to administrative inefficiency. Additionally, six of the seven facilities date back to the World War II era while the other dates back to the 1960s. The age of these facilities results in high maintenance costs, both in man-hours and material, and high energy costs due to old and inefficient heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HV AC) systems. These seven facilities would be demolished as part of the proposed action. The Consolidated Base Support Center will contain state-of-the-art equipment, will be sized appropriately to house these base functions, and will increase efficiency by consolidating headquarters and administrative support functions in one centrally-located facility.
