Department of the Army

Supplemental Environmental

Assessment and Finding of no

Significant Impact for the Relocation of

the 1111th Signal Battalion, The 1108th

Signal Brigade, Information Systems

Engineering Command-Conus

Elements, and Related Units (MP

Company) and Discretionary Moves of

Technical Applications Office and

Information Mission Area BRAC Office

From Fort Ritchie, Maryland, to Fort

Detrick, Maryland

AGENCY: Department of the Army, DoD.

ACTION: Notice of availability.

SUMMARY: In accordance with Public

Law 101–510, the Defense Base Closure

and Realignment Act of 1990, the

Defense Base Closure and Realignment

Commission recommended the

relocation of the 1111th Signal

Battalion, the 1108th Signal Brigade, a

portion of the Information Systems

Engineering Command-CONUS, and

associated Base Operations support

personnel from Fort Ritchie, Maryland,

to Fort Detrick, Maryland. The Army

will also relocate the Technical

Applications Office (TAO) and the

Information Mission Area Base

Realignment and Closure Office (IMA

BRAC Office) to Fort Detrick, Maryland,

pursuant to this recommendation.

An Environmental Assessment (EA)

was prepared in June 1996 resulting in

a Finding of No Significant Impact

(FNSI). Since that EA was prepared, the

number of personnel affected by the

realignment has changed slightly for a

net increase of 17 personnel (1,164

total). Additionally, several new

construction projects have been added

including a military police company

operations building; a separate storage

facility as an addition to the

administration building described in the

June 1996 EA; a physical fitness center;

and a proposed dining facility. Also,

renovations to existing facilities will

accommodate the TAO secure

administration space and administrative

space for the IMA BRACO. These

changes resulted in the need for this

supplemental EA.

The supplemental EA identified no

significant adverse environmental

impacts. There is a potential for only

minor or insignificant impacts in the

areas of noise, water quality,

stormwater, geology, soil, asbestos

management, radon management, and

visual and aesthetic values. Minor

adverse impacts will be avoided by

implementing best management

practices during construction, such as a

stormwater management plan and a soil

erosion control plan and by restricting

construction to the hours of 7 a.m. to 7

p.m. Potential asbestos, lead-based

paint, or radon impacts will be

mitigated by conducting the proper

testing before renovation (for asbestos

and lead-based paint) or after

construction (for radon) and taking

mitigation actions as necessary. Geology

and soil impacts will be avoided by

conducting geotechnical studies before

site development. Visual impacts will

be avoided by grading and landscaping

the construction sites that may be

visible from the Nallin Farm complex

and by turning off the lights on the

physical fitness center playing fields by

10 p.m. Therefore, based on the analysis

found in the supplemental EA, which is

hereby incorporated into the Finding of

No Significant Impact (FNSI), it is

determined the implementation of the

proposed action will not have

significant individual or cumulative

impacts on the quality of the natural or

the human environment. Because no

significant environmental impacts

would result from implementation of

the proposed action, an Environmental

Impact Statement is not required and

will not be prepared.

DATES: Public comments will be

accepted on or before April 9, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the supplemental

EA/FNSI may be obtained by writing to,

and any inquiries and comments

concerning the same should be

addressed to, the Commander, U.S.

Army Corps of Engineers, Baltimore

District, ATTN: CENAB–PL–EM (Ms.

calling (410) 962–2886, or by sending a

telefax to 410–962–4698. Copies of the

supplemental EA/FNSI will also be
