摘要: Grand Forks Air Force Base is proposing to demolish its Alpha Ramp (A-Ramp) and associated facilities and buildings (the Proposed Action). The purposes of the project are: to remove the A-Ramp facilities and infrastructure that are no longer needed; to remove excess buildings and utilities that represent sources of potential contamination; and to remove excess buildings and facilities (including walls) that are in the 7:1 flight envelope, clear zone, and 50:1 approach-departure clearance zone and require flight-line waivers. There are four alternatives for this Proposed Action: the No-Action Alternative, and three Implementation Alternatives for the Proposed Action. The Proposed Action will include mechanical demolition of all A-Ramp buildings, facilities including the security fence, and pavement; regrading of the area and revegetation of the area to suitable hay grass. After restoration, any future use of the A-Ramp area is as yet be determined, but the types of construction in the A-Ramp area may be limited because of existing flight-line restrictions. Three implementation alternatives for the Proposed Action were considered. All aspects of the Proposed Action would occur in, or under, the implementation alternatives except for minor variations. Two alternatives involve the reuse of the security wall rather than its demolition: reuse of the security walls on base, or sale of the walls for reuse off base. The third implementation alternative involves preserving the A-Ramp Perimeter Road; drainage ditches on either side of the Road would also not be modified except for some minor regrading that would occur northwest of A-Ramp. The No-Action Alternative would involve continued minimal use of some buildings and facilities; the unused ones would continue to deteriorate. Based on a review of the alternatives and their potential environmental impacts, the implementation alternative of preserving the A-Ramp Perimeter Road was selected as the preferred alternative.
