Shipyard Redevelopment Plan as
developed by the San Francisco
Redevelopment Agency (SFRA) in July
1997, and amended in August 2010. The
Navy is required to close HPS in
accordance with Public Law 101–510,
the Defense Base Closure and
Realignment Act of 1990, as amended.
In accordance with NEPA, before
disposing of any real property, the Navy
must analyze the environmental effects
of the disposal of the HPS property. The
Draft SEIS has identified and considered
six reuse alternatives for HPS and a no
action alternative. Navy disposal is
assumed as part of each reuse
alternative. The no action alternative
assumes retention of the HPS property
by the Government in a ‘‘caretaker
status’’ and no reuse or redevelopment.
Alternative 1, Stadium Plan
Alternative, would redevelop HPS with
a wide range of uses including a mixeduse community with 2,650 residential
units, retail (125,000 square feet (sq ft)),
research and development (R&D) (2.5
million sq ft), community services
(50,000 sq ft), and parks and
recreational open space (232 acres). A
major component would include a new
69,000-seat football stadium. This
alternative would also include a 300slip marina, improvements to stabilize
the shoreline, and a new bridge over
Yosemite Slough. New infrastructure
would serve the development as
necessary.
Alternative 1A (the ‘‘Stadium Plan/No
Bridge Alternative’’) includes the
disposal of HPS by the Navy and its
reuse with the same level, land use
types, and density of development as
Alternative 1, except that the Yosemite
Slough bridge would not be constructed.
Alternative 2 (the ‘‘Non-Stadium Plan/
Additional R&D Alternative’’) includes
many of the same components as
Alternative 1 including 2,650 residential
units, retail (125,000 sq ft), community
services (50,000 sq ft), and parks and
recreational open space (222 acres), a
300-slip marina, improvements to
stabilize the shoreline, and a new bridge
over Yosemite Slough. Under this
alternative, a new football stadium
would not be constructed. Instead, an
additional 2.5 million sq ft, for a total
of 5 million sq ft, of R&D space would
be developed.
Alternative 2A (the ‘‘Non-Stadium
Plan/Housing and R&D Alternative’’)
includes a mix of uses including 4,275
residential units, retail (125,000 sq ft),
R&D (3 million sq ft), community
services (50,000 sq ft), and parks and
recreational open space (222 acres). This
alternative would also include a 300slip marina, improvements to stabilize
the shoreline, and a new bridge over
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 223001
Yosemite Slough. No new football
stadium would be constructed.
Alternative 3 (the ‘‘Non-Stadium Plan/
Additional Housing Alternative’’) does
not include a new stadium, but is
comprised of a mix of land uses
including 4,000 residential units, retail
(125,000 sq ft), R&D (2.5 million sq ft),
community services (50,000 sq ft), and
parks and recreational open space (245
acres). The alternative also includes a
300-slip marina, improvements to
stabilize the shoreline, and a new bridge
over Yosemite Slough.
Alternative 4 (‘‘the Non-Stadium Plan/
Reduced Development Alternative’’)
includes a reduced density of
development. Development proposed
under this alternative includes 1,855
residential units, retail (87,500 sq ft),
R&D (1.75 million sq ft), community
services (50,000 sq ft), and parks and
recreational open space (245 acres). This
alternative does not include a new
stadium, a bridge over Yosemite Slough,
a marina, or shoreline stabilization.
The ‘‘No Action Alternative’’ is
required by NEPA and evaluates the
impacts at HPS in the event that the
property is not disposed. Under this
alternative the property would be
retained by the Navy in caretaker status.
Existing leases would continue until
they expire or are terminated, and no
new leases would be entered into. No
reuse or redevelopment would occur
under this alternative.
For each alternative, the Draft SEIS
addresses the potential direct, indirect,
short-term, and long-term impacts on
the human and natural environments,
including the following resource areas:
Transportation, traffic, and circulation;
air quality and greenhouse gases; noise;
land use and recreation; visual
resources and aesthetics;
socioeconomics; hazards and hazardous
substances; geology and soils; water
resources; utilities; public services;
cultural resources; biological resources;
and environmental justice. The analysis
also includes an analysis of cumulative
impacts from other reasonably
foreseeable Federal, State, or local
activities at and around HPS.
The Navy conducted a public scoping
period from September 5 to October 17,
2008, and held a public scoping meeting
on September 23, 2008, to identify
community concerns and local issues
that should be addressed in the SEIS.
Federal, State, and local agencies and
interested parties provided oral and
written comments to the Navy and
identified specific issues or topics of
environmental concern that should be
addressed in the SEIS. In addition, the
Navy facilitated additional community
outreach activities to solicit comments
PO 00000

and concerns from interested
community groups in 2009. The Navy
considered the scoping and outreach
comments in determining the scope of
the SEIS.
Federal, State, and local agencies, as
well as interested parties, are invited
and encouraged to review and comment
on the Draft SEIS. Comments can be

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Navy, as lead agency, has prepared and
filed the Draft SEIS for the Disposal and Reuse of Hunters Point
Shipyard, San Francisco, California in accordance with the requirements
of the NEPA of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321-4345) and its implementing
regulations (40 CFR parts 1500-1508). A Notice of Intent (NOI) for the
SEIS was published in the Federal Register on September 5, 2008
(Federal Register/Vol. 73, No. 173 pgs 51797 & 51798/Friday, September
5, 2008/Notices). The purpose of the proposed action is the disposal of
HPS from Federal ownership (864 acres [421 acres dry land & 443 acres
submerged]) and its subsequent reuse by the County and City of San
Francisco in a manner consistent with the Hunters Point Naval
[[Page 10013]]
Shipyard Redevelopment Plan as developed by the San Francisco
Redevelopment Agency (SFRA) in July 1997, and amended in August 2010.
The Navy is required to close HPS in accordance with Public Law 101-
510, the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act of 1990, as amended.
In accordance with NEPA, before disposing of any real property, the
Navy must analyze the environmental effects of the disposal of the HPS
property. The Draft SEIS has identified and considered six reuse
alternatives for HPS and a no action alternative. Navy disposal is
assumed as part of each reuse alternative. The no action alternative
assumes retention of the HPS property by the Government in a
``caretaker status'' and no reuse or redevelopment.
Alternative 1, Stadium Plan Alternative, would redevelop HPS with a
wide range of uses including a mixed-use community with 2,650

component would include a new 69,000-seat football stadium. This
alternative would also include a 300-slip marina, improvements to
stabilize the shoreline, and a new bridge over Yosemite Slough. New
infrastructure would serve the development as necessary.
Alternative 1A (the ``Stadium Plan/No Bridge Alternative'')
includes the disposal of HPS by the Navy and its reuse with the same
level, land use types, and density of development as Alternative 1,
except that the Yosemite Slough bridge would not be constructed.
Alternative 2 (the ``Non-Stadium Plan/Additional R&D Alternative'')
includes many of the same components as Alternative 1 including 2,650
residential units, retail (125,000 sq ft), community services (50,000
sq ft), and parks and recreational open space (222 acres), a 300-slip
marina, improvements to stabilize the shoreline, and a new bridge over
Yosemite Slough. Under this alternative, a new football stadium would
not be constructed. Instead, an additional 2.5 million sq ft, for a
total of 5 million sq ft, of R&D space would be developed.
Alternative 2A (the ``Non-Stadium Plan/Housing and R&D
Alternative'') includes a mix of uses including 4,275 residential
units, retail (125,000 sq ft), R&D (3 million sq ft), community
services (50,000 sq ft), and parks and recreational open space (222
acres). This alternative would also include a 300-slip marina,
improvements to stabilize the shoreline, and a new bridge over Yosemite
Slough. No new football stadium would be constructed.
Alternative 3 (the ``Non-Stadium Plan/Additional Housing
Alternative'') does not include a new stadium, but is comprised of a
mix of land uses including 4,000 residential units, retail (125,000 sq
ft), R&D (2.5 million sq ft), community services (50,000 sq ft), and
parks and recreational open space (245 acres). The alternative also
includes a 300-slip marina, improvements to stabilize the shoreline,
and a new bridge over Yosemite Slough.
Alternative 4 (``the Non-Stadium Plan/Reduced Development
Alternative'') includes a reduced density of development. Development
proposed under this alternative includes 1,855 residential units,
retail (87,500 sq ft), R&D (1.75 million sq ft), community services
(50,000 sq ft), and parks and recreational open space (245 acres). This
alternative does not include a new stadium, a bridge over Yosemite
Slough, a marina, or shoreline stabilization.
The ``No Action Alternative'' is required by NEPA and evaluates the
impacts at HPS in the event that the property is not disposed. Under
this alternative the property would be retained by the Navy in
caretaker status. Existing leases would continue until they expire or
are terminated, and no new leases would be entered into. No reuse or
redevelopment would occur under this alternative.
For each alternative, the Draft SEIS addresses the potential
direct, indirect, short-term, and long-term impacts on the human and
natural environments, including the following resource areas:
Transportation, traffic, and circulation; air quality and greenhouse
gases; noise; land use and recreation; visual resources and aesthetics;
socioeconomics; hazards and hazardous substances; geology and soils;
water resources; utilities; public services; cultural resources;
biological resources; and environmental justice. The analysis also
includes an analysis of cumulative impacts from other reasonably
foreseeable Federal, State, or local activities at and around HPS.
The Navy conducted a public scoping period from September 5 to
October 17, 2008, and held a public scoping meeting on September 23,
2008, to identify community concerns and local issues that should be
addressed in the SEIS. Federal, State, and local agencies and
interested parties provided oral and written comments to the Navy and
identified specific issues or topics of environmental concern that
should be addressed in the SEIS. In addition, the Navy facilitated
additional community outreach activities to solicit comments and
concerns from interested community groups in 2009. The Navy considered
the scoping and outreach comments in determining the scope of the SEIS.
Federal, State, and local agencies, as well as interested parties,
are invited and encouraged to review and comment on the Draft SEIS.
Comments can be made in the following ways: (1) Oral statements or
written comments at the scheduled public hearing; or (2) written
comments mailed to the BRAC PMO address in this notice; or (3) written
comments faxed to the BRAC PMO fax number in this notice; or (4)
comments submitted via e-mail using the BRAC PMO e-mail address in this
notice.
