ACTION:
The Department of the Army
announces the availability of the ROD,
which summarizes the decision on how
to implement property disposal in
accordance with the Defense Base
Closure and Realignment Act of 1990
(the Base Closure Act), Public Law 101–
510, as amended, following the closure
of Fort Monroe, Virginia.
The Army has decided to implement
its preferred alternative of early transfer
of surplus non-reverting federal
property to other entities for reuse.
Pursuant to the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA) and its
implementing regulations, the Army
prepared a Final Environmental Impact
Statement (FEIS) that includes the
evaluation of the environmental and
socioeconomic impacts of disposing of
surplus Federal property that does not
revert to the Commonwealth of Virginia,
and the implementation by others of
reasonable, foreseeable reuse
alternatives for the entire property.
Under the early transfer alternative, the
Army can transfer and dispose of nonreverting property for redevelopment
before environmental remedial actions
have been completed. This method of
early disposal, allowable under Section
120(h)(3)(C) of the Comprehensive
Environmental Response, Compensation
and Liability Act (CERCLA), would
defer the CERCLA covenant requirement
to complete all necessary environmental
cleanup prior to the transfer of the
remediated property. In this way,
parcels could become available for
redevelopment and reuse sooner under
this disposal alternative than under any
other. The Governor of the
Commonwealth of Virginia must concur
with the deferral request for the nonreversionary property at Fort Monroe.
ADDRESSES: To obtain a copy of the
ROD, contact Mr. Robert Reali, Fort
Monroe BRAC Environmental
Coordinator, Directorate of Public
Works, 318 Cornog Lane, Fort Monroe,
VA 23651–1110; via e-mail address at
