Unobligated balance available, start of year: ARMY NATIONAL GUARD FY 1981 MILITARY CONSTRUCTION PROGRAM ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION, P.L. 91-190: All projects in the Army National Guard FY 1981 Military Construction Program have been addressed for potential significant environmental impact in accordance with section 102(2)(c) of the National Environmental Policy Act; and it has been determined that the proposed projects will not have a significant impact on the environment nor are they highly controversial. FLOODPLAINS AND WETLANDS: Projects have been evaluated for conformance with Executive Orders 11988 and 11990 and none are sited in floodplains or wetlands except for the AASF project at Jefferson City, Missouri (page 1-49), and the Armory/AASF at North Kingston, Rhode Island (pages 1-74 and 1-75). CONSIDERATION OF ALTERNATE FACILITIES: All existing facilities have been considered for potential use to fill these requirements and no suitable space is available. NATIONAL HISTORIC PRESERVATION ACT OF 1966: Real estate on which facilities are to be constructed do not appear in the National Register of Historic Places. RESERVE MANPOWER POTENTIAL: The reserve manpower potential to meet and maintain authorized strengths of all Guard/Reserve flying/nonflying units in the areas in which these facilities are to be located has been reviewed in accordance with the procedures described in subsection IV.A. of DoD Directive 1200.1. In coordination with the other Military Services, it has been determined that the number of Guard/Reserve flying/nonflying units presently located in the se areas and allocated for future activation is not and will not be larger than can be maintained at authorized strength, by all reasonable expectations. This determination is based on the number of persons living in the areas who are qualified for membership in those Guard/Reserve units. FALLOUT PROTECTION: In accordance with Section 610 of Public Law 89-568, as amended, and DoD Directive 3020.35 military construction facilities in this program have been designed to afford maximum fallout protection. Fallout shelters have been excluded only for the following reasons: (1) Adequate protection areas are available to fulfill a station's requirements; or (2) The presence of personnel during period of fallout radiation would impair facility operations; or (3) Economic limitations necessitated either deferral or accomplishment by some other means. 1-v |
