DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE 

Department of the Army 

Notice of Availability of the Final 

Environmental Impact Statement 

(FEIS) for Base Closure and 

Realignment (BRAC) Actions at Fort 

Lee, Virginia, and Fort A.P. Hill, 

Virginia 

AGENCY: Department of the Army, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice of Availability (NOA). 

SUMMARY: The Department of the Army 

announces the availability of an FEIS 

which evaluates the potential 

environmental impacts associated with 

realignment actions directed by the Base 

Closure and Realignment (BRAC) 

Commission at Fort Lee, Virginia. 

DATES: The waiting period for the FEIS 

will end 30 days after publication of an 

NOA in the Federal Register by the U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency. 

ADDRESSES: To obtain a copy of the 

FEIS, please contact: Ms. Carol 

Anderson (Fort Lee), IMNE–EE–PWE, 

1816 Shop Rd., Fort Lee, Virginia 

23801–1604, e-mail address: 

CRMLee@lee.army.mil. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. 

Anderson at (804) 734–5071, or Ms. 

Terry Banks, Fort A.P. Hill, at (804) 

633–8223, during normal business 

hours Monday through Friday. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

subject of the FEIS and the Proposed 

Action is the construction and 

renovation activities at both 

installations, movement of personnel to 

Fort Lee, and related field training 

activities at Fort A.P. Hill associated 

with the BRAC-directed realignment of 

Fort Lee. 

To implement the BRAC 

recommendations, Fort Lee will be 

receiving personnel, equipment, and 

missions from various closure and 

realignment actions within the 

Department of Defense. To implement 

the BRAC Commission 

recommendations, the Army will 

provide the necessary facilities, 

buildings, and infrastructure at Fort Lee 

to support the establishment of a 

Sustainment Center of Excellence, a 

Joint Center for Consolidated 

Transportation Management Training, 

and a Joint Center of Excellence for 

Culinary Training; locate various offices 

of the Defense Contract Management 

Agency (DCMA) Headquarters; and 

receive all components of the Defense 

Commissary Agency (DeCA). 

Additionally, facilities will be installed 

or constructed at Fort A.P. Hill to 

accommodate field training exercises 

and leadership skills training for 

Student Soldiers at Fort Lee. These 

actions will impact several areas at the 

installations. 

Following a rigorous examination of 

all implementation alternative, those 

alternatives found not to be viable were 

dropped from further analysis in the 

Fort Lee and Fort A.P. Hill FEIS. 

Alternatives carried forward include the 

Preferred Alternative and a No Action 

Alternative. The Preferred Alternative 

includes construction, renovation, and 

operation of proposed facilities to 

accommodate incoming military 

missions at Fort Lee. 

The FEIS analyses indicate that 

implementation of the preferred 

alternative would have long-term, 

significant adverse impacts on 

socioeconomic resources (local school 

districts, and community services), and 

the transportation network at Fort Lee 

and its surrounding area, and no longterm significant adverse impacts on any 

resources at Fort A.P. Hill or its 

surrounding area. Minor adverse 

impacts on all other resources at both 

installations would potentially occur 

from implementation of the preferred 

alternative. Construction of new 

facilities in the cantonment area would 

have a long-term minor adverse impact 

on the historic setting of the Petersburg 

National Battlefield.
