Environmental Assessment Addressing the Emerald Breeze Resort, Santa Rosa Island, Fort Walton Beach, Florida.

摘要

Eglin Air Force Base (AFB) proposes to enter into a long-term lease of Eglin real property under Enhanced Use Lease (EUL) authority for the purpose of constructing and operating a resort hotel and conference center on underutilized, high-value beach front USAF property that could provide a steady income stream to Eglin AFB. Under the Proposed Action, the USAF would enter into a long-term EUL with a private developer, chosen through a competitive selection process, with the intent that the developer construct and operate the resort. Eglin AFB would have considerable flexibility ensuring the best use of the asset, and would realize the potential cash or in-kind consideration that the proposed site would generate as a commercial beachfront development.
