DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Department of the Army
Notice of Intent To Prepare an
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
for Disposal and Reuse of Fort
Monroe, VA, Resulting From the 2005
Base Closure and Realignment
Commission’s Recommendations
Department of the Army, DoD.
Notice of Availability.
AGENCY:

ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Department of the Army
intends to prepare an EIS for the
disposal and reuse of Fort Monroe,
Hampton, Virginia. Pursuant to the
BRAC law, Fort Monroe is to close by
September 14, 2011. Other actions
included in the closing of Fort Monroe
are relocating the Headquarters, U.S.
Army Training and Doctrine Command
(TRADOC); the Installation Management
Command (IMCOM) Northeast Region;
the U.S. Army Network Enterprise
Technology Command (NETCOM)
Northeast Region; and the Army
Contracting Agency Northeast Region
Office to Fort Eustis, Virginia. The U.S.
Army Accessions Command and the
U.S. Army Cadet Command will be
relocated to Fort Knox, Kentucky. These
relocations have been or will be
addressed in separate National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
documents for those locations.
DATES: The scoping meeting for the EIS
will be held on October 28, 2008, 7 p.m.
to 9 p.m., Northampton Community
Center, 1435 Todds Lane, Hampton, VA
23666.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Fort
Monroe is a 570-acre U.S. Army
VerDate Aug<31>2005
17:25 Sep 18, 2008
Jkt 214001
Garrison located at the southeastern tip
of the Virginia Lower Peninsula
between Hampton Roads and the Lower
Chesapeake Bay. The hallmark of Fort
Monroe is its stone fortress and moat.
The proposed action (Army primary
action) is to dispose of the surplus
property generated by the BRACmandated closure of Fort Monroe. Reuse
of Fort Monroe by others is a secondary
action resulting from disposal. The
Army has identified two disposal
alternatives (early transfer and
traditional disposal), a caretaker status
alternative, and the no action alternative
(as required by NEPA). The EIS will
analyze the impact of each reuse
alternative upon a wide range of
environmental resource areas including,
but not limited to, air quality, traffic,
noise, biological resources, water
resources, geology and soils, cultural
resources, socioeconomic, utilities, land
use, aesthetics and visual resources,
hazardous and toxic substances, and
cumulative environmental effects.
The Army will conduct an
environmental impact analysis that will
focus on the effects of closure and reuse.
One preliminary finding is that
transportation impacts will have the
most significant effect, with or without
a major tourism component in the reuse
plan. Also, at this early stage, impacts
to air quality, infrastructure, and land
use are not considered significant. With
respect to cultural resources, significant
adverse impacts are possible, but these
can be mitigated by provisions
contained in the Programmatic
Agreement between the Army and the
Virginia Department of Historic
Resources.
Additional resources and conditions
may be identified as a result of the
scoping process initiated by this NOI.
Other opportunities for public
participation will be announced in the
respective local news media. The public
will be invited to participate in scoping
activities for the EIS and comments
from the public will be considered
before any action is taken to implement
the disposal and reuse of Fort Monroe.
Dated: September 12, 2008.

Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army
(Environment, Safety and Occupational
Health).
