DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Department of the Army

Deployable Universal Combat

Earthmover (DEUCE)

AGENCY: U.S. Army Tank-automotive

and Armaments Command, Army.

ACTION: Notice of intent.

SUMMARY: The Product Manager,

Construction Equipment/Material

Handling Equipment (PM CE/MHE) has

prepared a Life-Cycle Environmental

Assessment (LCEA) which examines the

potential impacts to the natural and

human environment from the life cycle

activities of the Deployable Universal

Combat Earthmover (DEUCE). Based on

the LCEA, PM CE/MHE has determined

that the proposed action is not a major

Federal action significantly affecting the

quality of the human environment,

within the meaning of the National

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of

1969. Therefore, the preparation of an

environmental impact statement is not

required and the Army is issuing this

Finding of No Significant Impact

(FONSI).

ADDRESSES: Written comments should

be sent to, U.S. Army Tank-automotive

and Armaments Command (TACOM),

ATTN: AMSTA–DSA–TA–CE (DEUCE),

Warren, MI 48397–5000

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

For further information, or to obtain a

copy of the Deuce Life-Cycle

Environmental Assessment contact Mr.

Jeff Klein, Assistant Product Manager

(810) 574–6217.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

a. Proposed Action: This LCEA

examines the potential impacts to the

natural and human environment from

the procurement of the DEUCE to satisfy

the Army’s need for a high-speed

earthmoving capability, which can

deploy with Light and Airborne units.

The DEUCE will have earthmoving

capabilities comparable to the D5B

dozer, the ability to travel at 30 MPH,

and be C–130 air transportable. The

DEUCE is designed to improve the

Army’s ability to deploy with supported

units, and provide mobility,

countermobility, and survivability tasks

as required. A minimum quantity of 67

bulldozers is required to fill the Army’s

Force Package One contingency

requirements.

The DEUCE will replace existing D5B

dozers in selected units. The current

earthmoving system does not meet the

changing Army role to become a Rapid

Power Projection type force.

b. Environmental Impacts: The

DEUCE life-cycle includes the transport

of vehicles to test sites, testing, vehicle

production, deployment and operation

of production vehicles and their

eventual demilitarization. Potential

environmental impacts of these lifecycle stages may include Air Quality,

Noise, Water, Soil and Groundwater,

Hazardous Materials and Hazardous

Wastes, and Flora, Fauna and

Threatened or Endangered Species at

each of these life-cycle phases.

c. Additional Findings: Impacts from

the proposed action would be minimal

and not significant for the following

reasons:

(1) The DEUCE will be used in its

intended environment. This intended

environment includes vehicle

production and some testing at the

Contractor’s facility, and the remainder

of life-cycle activities at Army

installations and facilities.

(2) The DEUCE is very similar to

vehicles produced commercially and

vehicles already in the Army inventory.

It is being produced in low to moderate

quantities and will not significantly

increase the vehicle population at Army

installations and facilities.

(3) The overall environmental risk

associated with the DEUCE is low. It

does not introduce any new

technologies or processes. Vehicle life

cycle activities do not introduce any

potential environmental impacts that

are not already currently mitigated by

Army policy and procedures.

(4) The DEUCE Product Manager has

ensured that the Contractor producing

the vehicle is environmentally

complaint, has no permit violations, and

has commercial practices for Hazardous

Material Management and Pollution

Prevention in production of the DEUCE.

(5) The DEUCE Product Manager

recognizes that Army installations and

facilities have environmental plans and

measures in place to address vehicle life

cycle activities very similar to that of

the DEUCE to prevent, mitigate and

remediate environmental damage

caused by vehicle operation. Vehicle

operations at these Army installations

and facilities are in conjunction with

normal activities that are already

addressed in their site specific

environmental impact statements.

d. Determination: It is therefore

concluded that this program:

(1) Is not a major federal action

significantly affecting the quality of

human environment.

(2) Will not have a significant impact

on the environment.

(3) Is not likely to be environmentally

controversial.

(4) Will not likely result in litigation

based on environmental quality issues.

(5) Does not require an Environmental

Impact Statement (EIS).
