DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Department of the Army

Environmental Impact Statement (EIS)

for Fort Greely Maneuver Area and Air

Drop Zone, and Fort Wainwright

Maneuver Area

AGENCY: Department of the Army, DoD.

ACTION: Notice of intent.

SUMMARY: The Military Lands

Withdrawal Act, Public Law 99–606,

enacted by Congress on November 6,
53602 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 199 / Wednesday, October 15, 1997 / Notices

1986, identified For Greely Maneuver

Area, Fort Greely Air Drop Zone, and

Fort Wainwright Maneuver Area (also

known as the Yukon Maneuver Area) as

lands withdrawn from public use until

November 6, 2001. The Act requires the

Army to publish a Draft EIS for

continued or renewed withdrawal of

these lands by November 6, 1998. The

Department of the Army will be

directing the preparation of the EIS for

the renewed withdrawal of the Fort

Greely Maneuver Area and Air Drop

Zone, and Fort Wainwright Maneuver

Area. Both sites are located near

Fairbanks in interior Alaska. In

preparing the Draft EIS, the Army and

the Bureau of Land Management (BLM)

have mutually agreed to use the

legislative environmental impact

statement (LEIS) process pursuant to 40

C.F.R. 15061.8 to comply with the

requirements of Public Law 99–606.

This LEIS will be prepared in

cooperation with BLM and will be

completed by November 6, 1998, in

accordance with Public Law 99–606.

Therefore, pursuant to the LEIS process,

a Final LEIS (FLEIS) will be prepared

and a Notice of Availability of the FLEIS

will be published in the Federal

Register; however, there will not be a

Record of Decision.

Scoping: Federal, state, local agencies

and the public are invited to participate

in the scoping process for the

completion of the renewed withdrawal

of Fort Greely Maneuver Area and Air

Drop Zone, and Fort Wainright

Maneuver Area. The scoping process

will identify the significant issues of the

proposed renewed withdrawals which

will need to be addressed in the LEIS.

Scoping meetings will be held in

Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Delta

Junction, Alaska, within 60 days of the

publication of the Notice of Intent in the

Federal Register. Notification of the

times and locations for the public

scoping meetings will be published in

local newspapers.

Comments: Written comments

identifying issues and concerns to be

addressed in the LEIS will be accepted

within 60 days of the public scoping

meetings. Written comments may be

forwarded to: Directorate of Pubic

Works, Attn: APVR–RPW–EV (Mr. Steve

Wilson), 730 Quartermaster Drive, Fort

Richardson, AK 99505–6500.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Mr. Steve Wilson, Public Works

Division, Fort Richardson, at (907) 384–

2710/Fax (907) 384–3047.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Fort

Greely Maneuver Area and Air Drop

Zone comprise approximately 623,585

acres near Delta Junction, Alaska.

The Fort Wainwright Maneuver Area

comprises approximately 247,952 acres

near Fairbanks, Alaska. Both sites were

withdrawn from public use from the

BLM for military purposes with the

enactment of Public Law 99–606 on

November 6, 1986. The Act specifies

these lands are reserved for use by the

Secretary of the Army for military

maneuvering, training, artillery firing,

aerial gunnery, infantry tactics,

equipment development and testing, as

well as other defense related purposes.

Both sites are used to train in an

extremely cold environment and to test

the effect of this environment on

military equipment. The Fort Greely

Maneuver Area and Air Drop Zone, and

the Fort Wainwright Maneuver Area are

used by the Army, Air Force, and other

military units. The Army and BLM

jointly manage the natural resources on

both sites recognizing the primary

military role of these withdrawal lands.

The Department of the Army has

determined there is a continuing

military requirement for the use of these

withdrawal lands to train and maintain

military units at the required state of

readiness. With the completion of the

LEIS, the Army proposes to renew its

withdrawal from public use the Fort

Greely Maneuver Area and Air Drop

Zone, and the Fort Wainwright

Maneuver Area. Reasonable and feasible

alternatives will be developed as part of

the EIS process.

Preliminary planning criteria which

have been identified for the completion

of the LEIS for both sites include: nonmilitary activities on the withdrawal

lands; valid existing rights on the

withdrawal lands; consistency with

existing plans of adjacent land owners

and local governments; natural resource

management of the withdrawal lands;

public access to portions of the

withdrawal lands; and subsistence use

of the withdrawal lands. The LEIS will

be completed utilizing existing data,

information, plans, land use analyses

and previously completed EIS’s and

Environmental Assessments for these

withdrawal lands.

Dated: October 9, 1997.

Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army,
