Preparation of an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) for Resumption
of Year-Round Live-Fire Training at
Eagle River Flats (ERF), Fort
Richardson, AK
Department of the Army, DoD.
Notice of intent.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Army intends to prepare
an EIS to assess the potential
environmental impacts associated with
the resumption of year-round live-fire
weapons training at Fort Richardson,
including use of direct and indirect fire
weapons systems. The EIS will analyze
the proposed action’s impacts upon the
natural and manmade environment.
DATES: Written comments identifying
potential impacts to be analyzed in the
EIS must be received not later than
September 19, 2007.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should
be forwarded to Ms. Carrie McEnteer,
Directorate of Public Works, Attention:
IMPA–FWA–PWE (C. McEnteer), 1060
Gaffney Road #4500, Fort Wainwright,
AK 99703–4500; fax: (907) 353–9867;
e-mail: carrie.mcenteer@us.army.mil.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Please contact Mr. Robert Hall, Public
Affairs Office, 724 Postal Service Loop
Road #6000, Building 600, Room B349,
Fort Richardson, AK 99505–6000;
telephone: (907) 384–2546, e-mail:
robert.hall33@us.army.mil.
Fort
Richardson has undergone extensive
transformation in recent years,
including stationing of the 4th Brigade
Combat Team (Airborne); 25th Infantry
Division (Light); and temporary
stationing of the 1st Stryker Brigade
Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division.
The proposed action would allow units
to train year round at Fort Richardson
and receive necessary weapons
proficiency training. Weapons
proficiency is a critical component of
combat, and training must include livefire exercises using both direct and
indirect fire weapons. Indirect fire refers
to the use of weapons such as artillery
and mortars to fire at targets from
beyond line-of-sight distances or from
positions where line-of-sight is not
possible. Direct fire, in contrast, is the
use of small arms, machine guns,
rockets, or missiles to fire at targets that
can be observed or are within the lineof-sight.
The ERF Impact Area is the only
impact area on Fort Richardson which
can be used for live-fire artillery and
