BILLING CODE 6330–01–P 

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

Department of the Air Force 

Notice of Intent To Prepare an 

Environmental Impact Statement for 

Master Plan and Installation 

Development at Nellis Air Force Base, 

Nevada 

AGENCY: Department of the Air Force. 

ACTION: Notice of intent. 

SUMMARY: The Department of the Air 

Force (Air Force) is issuing this Notice 

of Intent (NOI) to prepare an 

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) 

to assess the potential social, economic, 

and environmental impacts associated 

with the proposed master plan and 

installation development at Nellis Air 

Force Base (AFB), Nevada. 

DATES: A public scoping period of 30 

days will take place starting from the 

date of the publication of this NOI in the 

Federal Register. Comments will be 

accepted at any time during the 

environmental impact analysis process; 

however, to ensure the Air Force has 

sufficient time to consider public 

scoping comments during preparation of 

the Draft EIS, please submit comments 

within the 30-day scoping period. The 

Draft EIS is anticipated in late 2024. The 

Final EIS and a decision on which 

alternative to implement is expected in 

late 2025. 

During the scoping period, the Air 

Force will hold two in-person public 

scoping meetings: November 14 and 15, 

2023, from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m., at the 

Cora Coleman Senior Center located at 

2100 Bonnie Lane, Las Vegas, NV 

89156. Both meetings are at the same 

location but offered on two different 

days to provide options to interested 

individuals. 

ADDRESSES: All public meeting 

materials may be viewed on the EIS 

website (https://www.nellisafbeis.com). 

For those without access to a computer 

or the internet, copies of the scoping 

materials may be obtained by submitting 

a request to Nellis AFB Public Affairs at 

(702) 652–2750. Scoping comments may 

be submitted by one of the following 

methods: (1) submit a written comment 

in person at one of the two public 

scoping meetings, (2) mail a written 

comment to Attn: Master Plan and 

Installation Development at Nellis AFB, 

2222 S 4th Avenue, P.O. Box 6257, 

Yuma, AZ 85366, and/or (3) submit a 

comment via the project website at 

https://www.nellisafbeis.com. For 

questions regarding the Proposed Action 

or EIS development, or to request sign 

language assistance at the in-person 

scoping meetings, contact Daniel Fisher 

at daniel.fisher.26@us.af.mil or (210) 

925–2738. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Nellis 

AFB is proposing to develop the east 

side of the Installation. The purpose of 

the Proposed Action is to optimize 

Nellis AFB’s current operational 

capabilities and capacity for future 

warfighting training and testing. The 

Proposed Action is needed because the 

current Nellis and United States Air 

Force Warfare Center mission sets are 

outpacing the ability to expand 

resources and capacity. In addition, the 

Air Force anticipates that facility 

requirements are likely to increase over 

time through normal attrition and the 

arrival of new missions and that the 

number of active duty and civilian 

personnel would also increase. The 

existing infrastructure does not meet 

current and future mission needs; 

mission capability at Nellis AFB is 

nearing physical capacity, and 

additional flightline support facilities 

and infrastructure are needed to meet 

anticipated future growth. The Proposed 

Action is also needed to relieve stress 

on facility and infrastructure constraints 

on the west side of the Installation. 

Flying units are currently sharing 

hangar space, which is not conducive to 

future mission growth. Presently, the 

Installation’s infrastructure and utilities 

are a limitation to operational expansion 

and growth; utilities and the west-side 

ramp are reaching full operational 

capacity and must be expanded to 

accommodate future operations. 

Without expansion, the existing 

facilities and infrastructure at Nellis 

AFB would be insufficient to meet Air 

Force and Department of Defense 

current and future mission 

requirements. 

The Proposed Action is development 

of the east side of Nellis AFB to address 

current mission constraints and future 

mission growth because the majority of 

the land available to construct facilities 

and infrastructure is located in the 

undeveloped area on the east side of the 

Installation. Constructed facilities and 

infrastructure will be grouped by 

functional land use category, and 

facilities with similar uses and mission 

functions will be located in the same 

general area. For planning purposes, the 

Air Force grouped similar mission 

activities into eight categories based on 

facility and infrastructure function and 

conservatively estimated the anticipated 

amount of impervious surface coverage 

typical of each functional category. The 

eight functional categories are Airfield 

Operations/Industrial/Light Industrial; 

Administrative/Small-scale 

Administrative; Medical/Community
