Environmental Assessment for Environmental Compliance Upgrades to 46 TW/TSRM Facilities (RCS 05-447, -452 & -546)
Abstract:
Pursuant to the Council on Environmental Quality regulations for implementing the procedural provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act at 40 Code of Federal Regulations CFR, Part 1500-1508 and 32 CFR Part 989, the Department of the Air Force has conducted an Environmental Assessment EA of the probable environmental consequences of constructing a Hazardous Materials HAZMAT storage building and two spill containment basins at Eglin Air Force Base AFB, Florida. The Range Maintenance Branch of the 46th Test Wing 46 TWTSRM, proposes to 1 replace a corroding HAZMA T storage container at Range C-52A with a permanent building and 2 construct containment basins in two fuel truck parking areas, one at C-52A and one off Trans Road in order to comply with the new requirements under 40 CFR 112.8cl1. This is the preferred alternative.
