Environmental Assessment for Construction of Phase II of the Dormitory Project Edwards Air Force Base, California.

摘要

Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, this FEA has been prepared in order to analyze the potential environmental consequences of the proposed action. The proposed project would involve the construction of 128 dormitory units and the demolition of 4 old dormitories. This document analyzes four different siting locations for potential dormitory construction. Potential environmental impacts include 1) The generation of approximately 5.37 tons of volatile organic compounds and 16.68 tons of oxides of nitrogen; exposure of personnel to asbestos-containing material (ACM), lead-based paints (LBP), and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs); use of hazardous materials, and generation of hazardous and solid waste; disturbance of desert tortoise and migratory birds; use of fill material; and the disruption of utilities and traffic systems. 2) Adherence to all applicable Federal, State, and local laws and regulations, and Air Force Instructions will ensure no significant impacts occur.
