The action for this FEIS consists of withdrawal of various organizational units from Norton AFB and their relocation primarily to March AFB. Other units would be relocated to McChord, Kirtland, Travis, Luke, Los Angeles, and McClellan AFBs. The relocation actions will include transfers of personnel, aircraft, and various other equipment and material. This FEIS assesses the environmental impacts associated with the action. The substantive areas of potential environmental impact that are analyzed are air quality, water resources, earth resource, biotic resources, cultural and historic resources, noise, hazardous waste, accident potential zones, and socioeconomics. This FEIS describes the baseline conditions, potential environmental impacts (beneficial and adverse), and possible mitigations of adverse impacts. The Base Closure and Realignment Act specifically exempts this FEIS from considering the need, purpose, or reasons for the withdrawal or alternatives for closure or realignment.
