Environmental Assessment for a Commercial Vehicle Inspection Point at the Downs Road Gate.

摘要

The U.S. Air Force proposes to relocate the Commercial Vehicle Inspection (CVI) point adjacent to the Hurlburt Field Main Gate. The need for the project is caused by congestion at the Cody Avenue-US 98 intersection (particularly during the morning and afternoon rush hours) and Antiterrorism/Force Protection (AT /FP) issues at the main gate. The CVI point currently has no visual screening, and the ability to view the CVI point from US 98 will increase following the construction of the interchange. Buildings exist within the 500-foot AT/FP setback and the 1 ,250-foot explosive clear zone radius from the existing CVI point. Finally, the existing CVI point does not have an overwatch position, and the distance from the CVI point to the active vehicle barrier does not currently meet United States Air Force (USAF) design standards.
