U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE),
Kansas City District, will be the project
manager for this EIS. This notice
informs the public of the proposed
action, announces the public scoping
process, and solicits public comments to
identify issues related to the proposed
project.
The public scoping period begins
with the publication of this notice in the
Federal Register and will continue until
January 19, 2015. All comments
submitted or postmarked by January 19,
2015 will be considered in defining the
scope of the EIS. Comments submitted
or postmarked after that date will be
considered to the extent practicable. For
public scoping meetings, see
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To
provide written comments on the EIS,
request to be added to the project
mailing list, or for further information or
questions about the EIS process, please
contact Ms. Amy Blair, U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers, Kansas City District by
telephone at (816) 389–3393, by mail at
Room 529, 601 E. 12th Street, Kansas
City, MO 64106, or by electronic mail at
NextNGAWest@usace.army.mil.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency
delivers geospatial intelligence, or
GEOINT, that provides a decisive
advantage to warfighters, policymakers,
intelligence professionals and first
responders. Both an intelligence agency
and combat support agency, NGA
fulfills the president’s national security
priorities in partnership with the
intelligence community and the
Department of Defense. NGA is
headquartered in Springfield, Va., and
has two major locations in St. Louis and
Arnold, MO.
NGA is pursuing construction and
operation of a modern facility in the St.
Louis metropolitan area to better
support its mission to provide timely,
relevant, and accurate geospatial
intelligence in support of national
security. The proposed new facility will
support NGA’s current mission,
improve its resiliency, and address
challenges associated with its current
facility located on Second Street in the
city of St. Louis, including physical
constraints and security requirements.
The EIS will evaluate and disclose the
impacts of constructing a new
replacement facility and relocating NGA
operations at alternative sites, in
addition to a No Action Alternative.
No Action Alternative: The EIS will
analyze the No Action Alternative,
under which no new construction or
relocation will occur.

The Proposed Action will be to
construct a new, modern West Facility
in the St. Louis metropolitan area.
Alternatives will be developed during
and following the public scoping
period, and will consist of alternative
sites for the new facility. The following
six proposed site locations were initially
identified through a site location study:
• Fenton: 1050 Dodge Drive, Fenton,
MO (southwest of St. Louis);
• Mehlville: 13045 Tesson Ferry
Road, St. Louis, MO (south of St. Louis);
• NorthPark: 4800 N. Hanley Road,
St. Louis (Ferguson), MO (northwest of
St. Louis);
• North St. Louis City: Near the
intersections of Cass and North Jefferson
Avenues;
• St. Clair County: Along Interstate
(I–64), adjacent to the northeast
boundary of Scott Air Force Base (AFB),
Illinois (east of St. Louis); and
• Weldon Spring: 4700 Technology
Drive, Weldon Spring, MO (northwest of
St. Louis).
Two of the six sites have since been
removed from consideration. A portion
of the NorthPark location has been sold
and the remaining land does not meet
NGA’s requirements. Additionally, the
Weldon Spring location is no longer
under consideration based on master
planning review.
Scoping: Public scoping is being
conducted through January 19, 2015, to
provide the public with an opportunity
to offer input on the scope of issues to
be addressed and to identify issues
related to the proposed action and
alternative sites. As part of public
scoping, NGA and the Corps of
Engineers plan to hold three public
scoping meetings in early December
2014. The dates and locations of the
scoping meetings and other
opportunities for public participation in
the EIS process will be announced
through news media in the St. Louis
metropolitan area.
In addition to complying with NEPA
and DoD planning guidance, scoping
will be used to partially fulfill the
public participation requirements of
Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act (NHPA). Except where
subject to the confidentiality provision
of Section 304 of the NHPA, all
comments received during scoping will
become part of a project administrative
record and may be included as an
appendix to the EIS. A Draft EIS is

No Action Alternative: The EIS will analyze the No Action

The Proposed Action will be to construct a new, modern West
Facility in the St. Louis metropolitan area.
Alternatives will be developed during and following the public
scoping period, and will consist of alternative sites for the new
facility. The following six proposed site locations were initially
identified through a site location study:
Fenton: 1050 Dodge Drive, Fenton, MO (southwest of St.
Louis);
Mehlville: 13045 Tesson Ferry Road, St. Louis, MO (south
of St. Louis);
NorthPark: 4800 N. Hanley Road, St. Louis (Ferguson), MO
(northwest of St. Louis);
North St. Louis City: Near the intersections of Cass and
North Jefferson Avenues;
St. Clair County: Along Interstate (I-64), adjacent to the
northeast boundary of Scott Air Force Base (AFB), Illinois (east of St.
Louis); and
Weldon Spring: 4700 Technology Drive, Weldon Spring, MO
(northwest of St. Louis).
Two of the six sites have since been removed from consideration. A
portion of the NorthPark location has been sold and the remaining land
does not meet NGA's requirements. Additionally, the Weldon Spring
location is no longer under consideration based on master planning
review.
Scoping: Public scoping is being conducted through January 19,
2015, to provide the public with an opportunity to offer input on the
scope of issues to be addressed and to identify issues related to the
proposed action and alternative sites. As part of public scoping, NGA
and the Corps of Engineers plan to hold three public scoping meetings
in early December 2014. The dates and locations of the scoping meetings
and other opportunities for public participation in the EIS process
will be announced through news media in the St. Louis metropolitan
area.
In addition to complying with NEPA and DoD planning guidance,
scoping will be used to partially fulfill the public participation
