DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Department of the Air Force
Notice of Intent To Prepare a
Supplemental Environmental Impact
Statement for United States Air Force
F–35a Operational Beddown—Pacific
United States Air Force, DOD.
Notice of intent.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The U.S. Air Force (USAF) is
issuing this notice of intent (NOI) to
prepare a Supplemental Environmental
Impact Statement (SEIS) to address
changes made since the February 2016
completion of the F–35A Operational
Beddown—Pacific EIS (referred herein
as the original EIS) and signature of the
Record of Decision (ROD) in April 2016,
announcing the Air Force decision to
beddown two squadrons of F–35A
aircraft at Eielson AFB, Alaska. The
original EIS evaluated infrastructure
construction, demolition, renovations,
additional personnel, and increases in
aircraft operations at the airfield and in
the Joint Pacific Alaska Range Complex
(JPARC) airspace. However, the Air
Force is supplementing the original EIS
due to projects being identified after the
ROD was signed that are required to
support the F–35 beddown at Eielson
AFB. These projects are relevant to
environmental concerns and provide
new circumstances and information
relevant to Air Force decision-making
and mitigation activities.
Scoping and Agency Coordination:To
effectively define the full range of issues
to be evaluated in the SEIS, the USAF
will determine the scope of the analysis
by soliciting comments from interested
local, state and federal elected officials
and agencies, as well as interested
members of the public and others. This
is being done by providing a Web site
where the public and lodge their
comments and/or by mailing comments
to the base Civil Engineering Squadron.
ADDRESSES: The project Web site
(https://www.pacaf-f35aeis.com)
provides more information on the SEIS
and can be used to submit scoping
comments. Scoping comments may also
be submitted to Attn: F–35 Beddown
SEIS, 354 CES/CEI, P.O. Box 4743,
Eielson AFB, AK 99702.
Comments will be accepted at any
time during the environmental impact
analysis process. However, to ensure the
USAF has sufficient time to consider
public input in the preparation of the
Draft SEIS, scoping comments should be
submitted to the Web site or the address
listed above by May 15, 2017.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Air
Force proposes to implement three
mstockstill on DSK3G9T082PROD with NOTICES

actions at Eielson AFB. They are
independent of each other and have
standalone value for improving facility
and infrastructure development in
support of the F–35A beddown at
Eielson AFB. The three are to provide
additional stormwater runoff control;
develop equipment and material
laydown areas; and provide additional
heat, water, and power to the South
Loop. While full implementation of all
of the proposed actions is desired, and
results in the greatest benefit for the
beddown, each of the proposals if
implemented alone would have a
positive effect on facility and
infrastructure development on the base.
The no-action alternatives will be
addressed in the SEIS as well.
The additional stormwater runoff
control measures would include up to
20 acres to accommodate additional
conveyance and infiltration areas. The
Air Force identified several areas,
adjacent to F–35A facilities, to allow
flexibility in conveyance and infiltration
system designs. Stormwater control
measures can include, but are not
limited to, sloping paved areas so that
water flows to adjacent vegetated areas
and using rocks to fill in low areas so
that ponds would not be created.
Wildlife in an active airfield poses a real
bird/wildlife aircraft strike hazard;
therefore, minimizing standing water is
a primary consideration when designing
stormwater runoff control systems.
The equipment and material laydown
areas would entail up to 60 acres,
adjacent to F–35A facilities already
identified in the original EIS. Because of
the remote location, material would
need to be stockpiled and stored for use
when they are needed. Additionally, the
areas would accommodate the
construction contractors’ equipment and
construction worker vehicles involved
in this large infrastructure development.
Because of the severe arctic
environment and extreme temperature
differences (exceeding 150 degrees
Fahrenheit), Eielson AFB maintains an
underground utility distribution system.
Under this proposed action, a utility
corridor, both underground for steam,
water, and condensate, and above
ground for power, would be established
to connect from the existing Central
Heat and Power Plant and to the South
Loop where F–35A facilities identified
in the original EIS are being
constructed. Depending on the route,
the utiliduct could extend up to 2 miles.
The proposed actions at Eielson AFB
have the potential to be located in a
floodplain and/or wetland. Consistent
with the requirements and objectives of
Executive Order (EO) 11990, ‘‘Protection
of Wetlands,’’ and EO 1988, ‘‘Floodplain
PO 00000
Frm 00037
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
15517
Management,’’ as amended by EO
13690, ‘‘Establishing a Federal Flood
Risk Management Standard and a
Process for Further Soliciting and
Considering Stakeholder Input,’’ state
and federal regulatory agencies with
special expertise in wetlands and
floodplains will be contacted to request
comment. Consistent with EO 11988,
EO 13690, and EO 11990, this Notice of
Intent initiates early public review of
the proposed actions and alternatives,
which have the potential to be located
in a floodplain and/or wetland.
