\r\nThe Air Force prepared an Environmental Assessment about\r\n\r\nthe Moody Housing parcel on Val Del Road<\/a>, but hasn’t made it public.\r\nThere was a comment period, but that’s expired now.\r\n

\r\nThis announcement apparently has appeared in the VDT since July,\r\naccording to Michael Noll:\r\n\r\n\"USAF<\/a>\r\n

\r\nThe EA is not available online anywhere I’ve looked.\r\nThis would be the same Air Force\r\n\r\nthat wondered if Lowndes County put stuff online<\/a>.\r\n<\/p>\r\n

\r\nTo comment, or for more information, contact Mr. Allen Richmond,\r\nAFCEC NEPA Center of Excellence Program Manager, by mail\r\nat AFCEC\/CZN, 2261 Hughes Ave., Lackland AFB, TX\r\n78236-9853, or call (210) 395-8885.\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\nNo answer at that number when I called it just now.\r\n

\r\nThe U.S. Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC)\r\nposted this 25 March 2013,\r\n\r\nNATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY ACT CENTER OF EXCELLENCE<\/a>,\r\n

\r\n

\r\n\r\nMission\r\n<\/strong>
\r\nThe National Environmental Policy Act Center of Excellence is a division of the Environmental Directorate of the Air Force Civil Engineer Center. The NEPA center manages and executes all Air Force activities pertaining to the Environmental Impact Analysis Process to ensure environmental considerations are factored into proposed Air Force activities.\r\n

\r\n\r\nOrganization\r\n<\/strong>
\r\nA civilian chief leads the NEPA center. It consists of Air Force civilian personnel supported by private industry contractors.\r\n

\r\n\r\nCapabilities\r\n<\/strong>
\r\nWith the transformation of the Air Force civil engineering program, the NEPA center assumes many of the responsibilities formerly required of major commands. While the MAJCOMs retain their proponent role, the NEPA center executes their environmental planning function and program management responsibilities. MAJCOMs are staffed with an EIAP coordinator who serves as a liaison to the NEPA center.\r\n

\r\nThe NEPA center executes centralized tracking and reporting of environmental assessments and environmental impact studies. It supports environmental baseline surveys for real property transactions. It also provides technical assistance and EIAP subject matter expertise to installations and MAJCOMs. The NEPA center provides consulting and technical support on planning requirements for EIAP, known as PREIAP. The center provides training on categorical exclusions applicability, in-house environmental assessment and environmental impact study preparation, and PREIAP facilitation skills.\r\n

\r\n\r\nCurrent as of March 2013\r\n<\/em>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\nI’m guessing “Mr. Allen Richmond” with no military rank is one\r\nof those “private industry contractors”.\r\nHis name is also on this other\r\n\r\nEnvironmental Impact Study<\/a> that InvestFairbanks (Alaska)\r\nposted online.\r\n

\r\nToo bad Lowndes County or our Industrial Authority or Moody or AFCEC\r\ndidn’t see fit to post the Moody Housing EA online.\r\n
