Executive Order (EO) 12829,

EO 12885, December 14, 1993,
established the NISP to safeguard
federal government classified
information released to contractors,
licensees, and grantees of the US
government. Section 202(a) of EO 12829
stipulates that the Secretary of Defense
shall serve as the Executive Agent for
inspecting and monitoring the
contractors, licensees, and grantees who
require or will require access to or who
store or will store classified information;
and for determining the eligibility for
access to classified information of
contractors, licensees, grantees, and
their respective employees. The specific
requirements necessary to protect
classified information released to
private industry are set forth in DoD
5220.22M, ‘‘National Industrial Security
Program Operating Manual (NISPOM),’’
February 28, 2006. The Executive Agent
has the authority to issue, after
consultation with affected agencies,
standard forms or other standardization
that will promote the implementation of
the NISP. Contractors operating under
DoD security cognizance are subject to
an initial facility clearance survey and
periodic government security reviews to
determine their eligibility to participate
in the NISP and ensure that safeguards
employed are adequate for the
protection of classified information.
DoD Directive 5105.42, ‘‘Defense
Security Service,’’ August 30, 2010,
incorporating Change 1, March 31, 2011,

DSS is the office of record for the

and industrial security information
regarding cleared contractors under its
cognizance. To the extent possible,
information required as part of the

a result of observation by the
representative of the Cognizant Security
Agency or its designated Cognizant
Security Office. Some of the information
may be obtained based on conferences
with Key Management Personnel and/or
other employees of the company. The
information is used to respond to all
inquires regarding the facility clearance
status and classified information storage
capability of cleared contractors. It is
also used to assess and/or advise
Government Contracting Activities
regarding any particular contractor’s
continued ability to protect classified
information.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Department of the Army
Environmental Impact Statement for
Disposition of Hangars 2 and 3, Fort
Wainwright, AK
Department of the Army, DoD.
Notice of Intent.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Department of the Army
announces its intent to conduct public
scoping under the National
Environmental Policy Act to gather
information to prepare an
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
related to the disposition of Hangars 2
and 3 at Fort Wainwright, Alaska.
Hangars 2 and 3 are contributing
elements to the Ladd Field World War
II National Historic Landmark (NHL).
The Department of the Army will use
the analysis in the EIS to determine
which alternative to implement. There
may be significant impacts to historic
properties.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should
be forwarded to Ms. Carrie McEnteer,
Directorate of Public Works, Attention:
IMPC–FWA–PWE (McEnteer), 1060

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Please contact Ms. Linda Douglass,
Public Affairs Office (PAO), IMPC–
FWA–PAO (Douglass), 1060 Gaffney
Road #5900, Fort Wainwright, AK
99703–5900; telephone (907) 353–6701,
email: linda.douglass@us.army.mil.
The
decision to be made by the Army is
regarding the disposition of two historic
aircraft hangars located at Fort
Wainwright. The EIS will assess the
direct, indirect, and cumulative
environmental impacts associated with
various proposed facility disposition
options to meet safety, funding,
facilities management, land use, and
cultural resources management
objectives. The condition of the
facilities warrants a decision on the
disposition that meets the
aforementioned management objectives.
The implementation of the proposed
action would determine the disposition
for the historic hangars. Based on the
decision, a management strategy would
be developed. A range of reasonable
alternatives, including a No Action
Alternative, will be developed and
analyzed in the EIS. Alternatives to be
considered include converting both
hangars to another use, demolishing
both hangars, demolishing one hangar
and retaining one hangar, indefinite
mothballing of the buildings, and
transferring facilities and management
responsibility to another agency. Other
reasonable alternatives raised during the
scoping process and capable of meeting
the project purpose and need and
criteria will be considered for
evaluation in the EIS.
Scoping and public comments: Native
Americans, Alaska Natives, federal,
state, and local agencies, organizations,
and the public are invited to be
involved in the scoping process for the
preparation of this EIS by participating
in scoping meetings and/or submitting
written comments. The scoping process
will help identify possible alternatives,
potential environmental impacts, and
key issues of concern to be analyzed in
the EIS. Written comments will be
accepted within 60 days of publication
of the Notice of Intent in the Federal
Register. Scoping meetings will be held
in Fairbanks, AK. Notification of the
times and locations for the scoping
meetings will be locally published.
