Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 145 / Tuesday, July 29, 1997 / Notices 40509

The purpose of the FEIS was to analyze

and disclose the potential

environmental consequences of the

disposal of real property and the reuse

of the base outside the area retained by

the US Air Force.

The Air Force issued a Record of

Decision (ROD) on May 19, 1995, which

documented a series of decisions in

regard to parcel disposal, the

organizations or agencies to receive

certain parcels; the means for parcel

disposal (Federal transfer, public benefit

conveyance, negotiated sale, or public

sale); and the mitigation measures to be

adopted. The Air Force issued a

Supplemental Record of Decision

(SROD) on April 23, 1996, which

clarified that the base electrical system

would be disposed of by negotiated sale.

The SROD also, made modifications to

the ROD concerning the size of various

parcels of land to be transferred to the

Army and the Rickenbacker Port

Authority (RPA).

Since the SROD was issued, the RPA

and other Federal agencies have

requested that the SROD and ROD be

revised to reconcile certain property

disposal decisions. Consequently, this

RSROD adjusted the acreage of various

parcels of land and clarified the

intended disposal of the water and

waste water sewer system to the RPA.

These disposal activities and any

associated mitigation measures will

proceed with minimal adverse impact to

the environment. This action conforms

with applicable Federal, State and local

statutes and regulations, and all

reasonable and practical efforts have

been incorporated to minimize harm to

the local public and the environment.

Any questions regarding this matter

should be directed to Mr. John P. Carr,

Program Manager at (703) 696–5547.

Correspondence should be sent to:

AFBCA/DA, 1700 North Moore Street,

Suite 2300, Arlington, VA 22209–2802.
