AGENCY:
BILLING CODE 5001–06–P
SUMMARY: Pursuant to the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of
1969, as amended (42 United States
Code 4321, et seq.), the Council on
Environmental Quality Regulations for
implementing procedural provisions of
NEPA (40 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) Parts 1500–1508), and Air Force
policy and procedures (32 CFR Part
989), the Air Force is issuing this notice
to advise the public of its intent to
prepare a Supplemental Environmental
Impact Statement (SEIS) evaluating
potential environmental impacts
associated with implementation of a
portion of the 2005 BRAC Commission’s
recommendations and related actions
for Eglin AFB, FL.
The Air Force ‘‘Record of Decision,
Implementation of Base Realignment
and Closure (BRAC) 2005 Decisions for
the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) Initial Joint
Training Site (IJTS), Eglin AFB,
Florida,’’ dated February 5, 2009, (FR
Vol 74, No 34/February 23, 2009) (ROD)
addressed the JSF IJTS, and resulted in
a decision to implement a portion of the
Final Environmental Impact Statement
(FEIS) Alternative 1, that included the
beddown of 59 F–35 Primary Assigned
Aircraft (PAA), associated cantonment
construction, and limited flight training
operations. The ROD also determined
that the intent of the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
would be furthered by accomplishing
the SEIS, the scope of which is directed
by the ROD.
The Air Force goal for the SEIS is to
analyze the potential beddown of the
107 F–35 PAA discussed in the FEIS
(Chap. 2, et al.) at Eglin AFB. Additional
analysis of how to beddown the 59 F–
35 PAA identified in the ROD and the
consequences and potential mitigations
associated with the beddown of up to 48
additional F–35 aircraft are the subjects
of this SEIS, which is anticipated to be
completed on or about September 2010.
Where the maximum supportable
number of F–35 aircraft may ultimately
beddown on the Eglin Reservation, how
they might be operated, and the degree
to which other mitigation measures are
possible are all subjects to be addressed
in the SEIS. The Air Force intends to
analyze a range of alternatives that will,
among other things, maximize the
number of flight training operations able
to be conducted at Eglin AFB, preserve
restricted airspace at Eglin AFB to the
greatest extent possible, and consider
future use of Eglin AFB as a training
facility for the F–35.
The temporary operational limitations
imposed in the ROD on F–35 flight
training activities to avoid and
minimize noise impacts will remain in
place until the SEIS has been completed
and the Air Force has decided how best
to proceed.
The Air Force will conduct scoping
meetings to solicit public input and
help identify issues to be addressed in
the SEIS. Oral and written comments
presented at the public meetings, as
well as written comments received by
the Air Force during this scoping period
and through public comment
opportunities in the SEIS process, will
be considered in the preparation of the
SEIS and will be made a part of the
administrative record.
Scoping meetings will be held as
