Procurement List; Proposed Additions and Deletion, 4133-4134 [2013-01028]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 13 / Friday, January 18, 2013 / Notices COMMITTEE FOR PURCHASE FROM PEOPLE WHO ARE BLIND OR SEVERELY DISABLED End of Certification Accordingly, the following service is added to the Procurement List: Procurement List; Addition Service Service Type/Location: Mess Attendant Service and Cook Support, Two Seasons Dining Facility, 447 North Street, Building 2207, Eielson Air Force Base, AK. NPA: Lakeview Center, Inc., Pensacola, FL. Contracting Activity: Dept of the Air Force, FA5004 354 CONS LGC, Eielson AFB, AK. Comments were received from two associations representing agencies and merchants authorized to provide full-food services to military dining facilities under the Randolph-Sheppard Act. Both associations expressed their belief that the mess attendant service and cook support project identified in this Procurement List addition should be considered a full-food service project subject to the Randolph-Sheppard Act. The Air Force Performance Work Statement, as well as documentation from the contracting activity, confirms that the specific requirements of this project do not include full-food service or the operation of a cafeteria. Government personnel will operate and manage the dining facilities and the AbilityOne nonprofit agency will provide dining support services. When full-food service is not required and the Department of Defense needs dining support services, those services are appropriate for performance by a qualified AbilityOne nonprofit agency. Therefore, following its deliberative review of the suitability of this project, the Committee For Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled determined that the mess attendant service and cook support project does not involve full-food service and will be added to the Procurement List. Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled. ACTION: Addition to the Procurement List. AGENCY: This action adds a service to the Procurement List that will be provided by a nonprofit agency employing persons who are blind or have other severe disabilities. DATES: Effective Date: 2/18/2013.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: Addition On 11/9/2012 (77 FR 67343–67344), the Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely Disabled published notice of proposed addition to the Procurement List.

The action will result in authorizing small entities to provide the service to the Government. 3.

ACTION: Notice of Intent. AGENCY: Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321, et seq.), the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) Regulations for Implementing the Procedural Provisions of NEPA (40 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 an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) considering a proposal to relocate the 18th Aggressor Squadron from Eielson AFB to Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson and rightsizing the remaining Wing Overhead/Base Operating Support at Eielson. Proposed Action: The Air Force proposes to relocate the 18th Aggressor Squadron (18 AGRS) from Eielson AFB (EAFB) to Joint Base ElmendorfRichardson (JBER); 18 AGRS consists of 18 assigned F–16 aircraft and 3 back-up F–16s. This proposed relocation includes removing 623 military personnel from EAFB, transferring approximately 542 positions to JBER, mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with SUMMARY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:52 Jan 17, 2013 Jkt 229001 and eliminating 81 positions. The Air Force proposes to reduce military and civilian authorizations at EAFB appropriate to the command structure required for the remaining operations. Current planning estimates call for an end-state of approximately 769 appropriated funds personnel at EAFB after FY15 (559 military and 210 civilian personnel). EAFB will continue to host Red Flag and Distant Frontier training exercises with the 18 AGRS operating out of JBER under one of two possible alternatives: Alternative 1: 18 AGRS would deploy to EAFB for the duration of the Red Flag exercises. Alternative 2 The 18 AGRS F–16 aircraft would fly to and from the Joint Pacific Alaska Range Complex (JPARC) Military Operations Areas (MOAs) in the vicinity of EAFB on a daily basis during exercises, requiring aerial refueling. The participating F–16 aircraft would not routinely land at EAFB for refueling. Both Alternatives would operate in the same air space as currently used for Red Flag and Distant Frontier exercises. Transient aircraft and personnel from outside of Alaska participating in these exercises would continue to deploy to and operate out of EAFB. This EIS will also evaluate the impacts of the No Action Alternative: Keeping the 18 AGRS stationed at EAFB. Scoping: In order to effectively define the full range of issues to be evaluated in the EIS, the Air Force will determine the scope of the analysis by soliciting comments from interested local, state and federal agencies, as well as interested members of the public. The Air Force intends to hold scoping meetings as follows: Dates Locations February 4–5, 2013 February 6–7, 2013 Anchorage and MatSu Boroughs, AK. Fairbanks and North Pole, AK. All meetings will be held from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m., AST. Specific dates, times, and locations for the scoping meetings will be published in local media a minimum of 15 days prior to the scoping meeting dates. Public scoping comments will be accepted either verbally or in writing at the scoping meetings. Additional scoping comments will be accepted at any time during the EIS process. However, in order to ensure the Air Force has sufficient time to consider public input, scoping comments should arrive at the address below by March 1, 2013.

Notice of availability. AGENCY: ACTION: The Department of the Army announces the availability of the draft Finding of No Significant Impact (FNSI) and final Programmatic Environmental Assessment (PEA) for Army force structure realignments that may occur from Fiscal Years (FYs) 2013–2020. The Army must achieve force reductions as it transitions from major combat operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, while reducing spending without sacrificing critical national defense capabilities. The draft FNSI considers a proposed action under which the Army’s active duty end-strength would be reduced from 562,000 at the end of FY 2012 to 490,000 by FY 2020. The PEA analyzes two action alternatives: Alternative 1: Implement force reductions by inactivating a minimum of eight Brigade Combat Teams (BCTs) and realign other combat, combat support, and service support units between FY 2013 and FY 2020; and Alternative 2: Implement Alternative 1, inactivate additional BCTs, and reorganize remaining BCTs by adding an additional combat maneuver battalion and other units. The PEA also analyzes a No Action alternative under which the Army would not reduce the size of the force. The draft FNSI incorporates the PEA which does not identify any significant environmental impacts associated with either alternative, with the exception of socioeconomic impacts at some installations where a BCT is inactivated and smaller organizations realigned. The draft FNSI concludes that preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required. Final decisions as to which installations will see BCTs inactivated or units realigned have not been made. Additional site- SUMMARY: E:\FR\FM\18JAN1.SGM 18JAN1
