DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
Department of the Navy
Notice of Virtual Public Meeting for the
Draft Environmental Impact Statement
Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard and
Intermediate Maintenance Facility Dry
Dock and Waterfront Production
Facility
Department of the Navy (DoN),
Department of Defense (DoD)
ACTION: Notice of public meeting.
AGENCY:
Pursuant to the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of
1969, as implemented by the Council on
Environmental Quality Regulations, the
DoN has prepared and filed with the
United States Environmental Protection
Agency (U.S. EPA) a Draft
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)
that evaluates the potential
environmental effects associated with
constructing and operating a graving dry
dock (DD) and waterfront production
facility (WPF) at the Pearl Harbor Naval
Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance
Facility (PHNSY & IMF) at Joint Base
Pearl Harbor-Hickam (JBPHH), Oahu,
Hawaii. A graving dry dock is a narrow
basin constructed near the shoreline
that can be flooded to allow watercraft
to be floated in, then drained to allow
the watercraft to come to rest on a dry
platform. Dry docks are used for the
maintenance and repair of ships, boats,
submarines, and other watercraft. A
WPF is a facility situated at the
waterfront that is used to support
maintenance of these vessels.
DATES: With the filing of the Draft EIS,
the DoN is initiating a 45-day public
comment period beginning on February
4, 2022, and extending through March
21, 2022. Comments submitted during
the public comment period will become
part of the public record, and
substantive comments will be
considered in the Final EIS. All
comments must be postmarked or
received electronically by 11:59 p.m.
Hawaii Standard Time (HST) on March
21, 2022, for consideration in the Final
EIS.
Due to current Federal and State
guidance on social distancing in
response to the COVID–19 pandemic,

library. The public can use this website
to submit comments on the Draft EIS
electronically between February 4, 2022,
and March 21, 2022.

consultations regarding potential effects
of the Proposed Action on historic
properties. Historic properties include
districts, sites, buildings, structures, or
objects listed or eligible for listing in the
National Register of Historic Places. The
public will have the opportunity to
participate in the Section 106 process by
reviewing the Draft EIS and providing
comments using one of the various
virtual and web-based platforms
identified above.

Draft EIS or the project’s potential to
affect historic properties pursuant to
Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act may be mailed to

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 24 / Friday, February 4, 2022 / Notices
A Notice
of Intent to prepare this EIS was
published in the Federal Register on
September 15, 2020 (Federal Register
(FR) Doc 2020–19961) with a correction
on September 18, 2020. The DoN’s
coaction proponents for this EIS are
JBPHH and Naval Facilities Engineering
Systems Command Program
Management Office 555. The U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers, Honolulu District;
U.S. EPA, Region 9; and the National
Marine Fisheries Service, Pacific Islands
Regional Office are cooperating
agencies.
PHNSY & IMF’s mission is to repair,
maintain, and modernize DoN fastattack submarines and surface ships.
The purpose of the proposed action is
to provide appropriate dry dock
capability at PHNSY & IMF no later than
January 2028 to meet submarine depot
maintenance mission requirements, as
well as build and operate a properly
sized and configured WPF to enable
efficient submarine maintenance. The
proposed action is needed because the
existing DD3 at PHNSY & IMF does not
have the necessary length or floor
strength to accommodate current and
future class fast-attack submarines.
Additionally, an appropriately sized
and adjacent WPF is needed to reduce
lost operational days by increasing
collaboration and efficiency among the
workforce. The culmination of a
replacement DD and new WPF will
ensure that the Navy achieves necessary
efficiencies and is capable of fulfilling
scheduled maintenance requirements.
The mission need date of January 2028
is driven by current projected Fleet
maintenance schedules.
The DoN is considering four action
alternatives that meet the purpose of
and need for the proposed action, as
well as a no action alternative. Under
the No Action Alternative, Alternative
1, there would be no change from the
status quo. Action alternatives are
differentiated by the location of the
WPF relative to a new dry dock (east or
west), whether the WPF serves only that
dry dock (single support concept) or has
capability to serve more than one dry
dock (multiple support concept), and
whether the dry dock is covered or
uncovered.
In the EIS, the DoN analyzes potential
environmental impacts of the different
alternatives. Additionally, the DoN will
conduct all coordination and
consultation activities required by the
National Historic Preservation Act, the
Endangered Species Act, the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act, the
Clean Water Act, and other laws and
regulations determined to be applicable

to the project. The DoN will implement
mitigation and monitoring measures to
avoid or reduce environmental impacts,
as determined in cooperation with the
appropriate regulatory agencies and
consulting parties.
The DoN distributed the Draft EIS to
federal agencies and Native Hawaiian
Organizations with which the DoN is
consulting and to other stakeholders.
The DoN provided press releases to the
local newspapers and distributed letters
and postcards to stakeholders, Native
Hawaiian Organizations, and other
interested parties. Copies of the Draft
EIS are available for public review at the
following public libraries: 1. Hawaii
State Public Library and 2. Salt LakeMoanalua Public Library. The Draft EIS
is also available for electronic viewing
