Construct Honor Guard Facility, AF Form 813 continuation sheet
4.0 Purpose and Need for Action:
The purpose of this proposed action is to construct a new facility to house the Base Honor Guard.
The action is needed because the Honor Guard was displaced from their previous facility (B1015) due to demolition driven by damage caused by Hurricane Michael and the Tyndall Recovery Master Plan. The Honor Guard is still a functioning entity at the base under the 325 FW managed by FSS and is authorized space per AFMAN 32-1084.
5.0 Description of the Proposed Action and Alternatives (DOPAA):
The proposed action will be to construct a new facility approximately 3,250 SF. The facility will include administrative and maintenance services complete with associated utilities to include communications; electric; heating, ventilation, and air conditioning; lightning protection; and fire protection/alarm system. Additional pavement to support training and to accommodate parking will be approximately 15,100 SF. Utilities will be run to the facility to include communications, electric, sewer, and water. Existing lines running beneath the site will be moved as needed to accommodate the facility. Digging and trenching is expected. Trenches will be 2 feet wide by 3 feet deep. All disturbed materials will remain on site. The estimated elevation of the site is 15-16 feet above sea level. Enough fill material will be brought in and placed on site to elevate the facility to the minimum 19-foot design flood elevation. Volume of fill is estimated at a maximum of 3,000 CY. Exterior paving and sidewalks, curbs, gutters, access drives, exterior lighting, grading, and physical security requirements are also included. Two locations were selected for potential stormwater ponds. Each pond would be approximately 3,000 SF. A comprehensive storm sewer system shall be designed to facilitate positive drainage of the facility and general site. The design shall be for a 10-year, 24-hour storm occurrence. All storm drainage system piping shall be reinforced concrete pipe. All gutters and downspouts shall connect to the storm sewer system.
Alternatives Considered:
A total of 7 sites were evaluated for feasibility. The other COAs proved to be unsuitable for various reasons such as noise concerns from the Honor Guard mission, incompatible surrounding uses, locations being within ERP sites, or conflicts with other Tyndall Rebuild activities.
The additional sites considered were: Undeveloped lot North of Sabre Dr., South of Road 31B, and West of Road 31; Undeveloped Lot North of Beacon Beach Rd between AFNORTH and Education Center; Undeveloped Lot North of Beacon Beach Rd and North of Education Center;
Undeveloped Lot South of Beacon Beach Rd and West of Archer’s Range; Undeveloped Lot South of Beacon Beach Rd and East of Archer’s Range; Undeveloped lot North of Mississippi Rd and West of Score Booth (Building #1126); Undeveloped lot North of Mississippi Rd and West of Pest Management (Building #1701).
No Action Alternative: Status Quo. If the facility is not constructed, the Honor Guard will be without a home to perform its functions. This would lead to a degradation of services.
5.1 Anticipated Environmental Issues:
5.2 Environmental Impacts:
ACUIZ/ Noise:
The proposed actions would result in a localized and temporary increase in noise levels due to construction and site preparation. This noise is not expected to be significant. The proposed action would not significantly contribute to the noise levels in the area.
Air Quality:
Tyndall AFB is in an attainment area for National Ambient Air Quality Standard. The FESOP permit for Tyndall AFB will not be violated by the implementation of the proposed project.
Temporary minor exhaust emissions would occur in the immediate vicinity of the construction.
Fugitive dust would be controlled at the sites using best management practices (BMPs), such as periodic watering of cleared areas and stockpiled materials and mulching or vegetative cover for the cleared areas.
Many operations are subject to specific air quality regulations. State-specific emission standards are identified in Chapter 62-296 of the Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.). Florida regulates hazardous air pollutants (HAP) in accordance with the National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) in Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR): Part 61 is regulation by HAP and Part 63 is regulation by industrial category. There are also federal New Source Performance Standards specified for criteria air pollutants in Title 40, Part 60 of the
CFR.
Permits are required for operations subject to applicable regulations or that emit air pollutants in sufficient quantities to warrant regulation. Projects utilizing regulated equipment are required to obtain permits prior to beginning construction on new emissions units, modifying an existing emissions unit or installing air pollution control equipment. These permits will specify applicable emissions standards and work practices to control the emissions of pollutants such as particulate matter, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, sulfur oxides, volatile organic compounds, and hazardous air pollutants.
Conduct a thorough site/plan survey to identify all activities that generate and/or control air emissions. Air permitting requirements are specified in Chapters 62-4, 62-204, 62-210, and 62- 212 of the Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.).
Contractor performing the work is responsible for obtaining the permit. Permit application must be submitted to 325 CES/CEIE for review. Application must be signed by the 325 CES/CC.
ACAM Modeling was performed, based off the results the air quality in the area would not be significantly impacted by the proposed project; therefore a conformity determination is not required.
Water Resources:
Due to the cumulative area of proposed semi/impervious surface stormwater permitting and compensation through the FDEP will be required for the proposed project. All new semi/impervious surfaces must be accounted for when performing stormwater design each area must discharge into the stormwater management area.
If jurisdictional waters of the state or United States are proposed for impact, permitting will be required through the FDEP and/or USACE. Additional coordination with the 325 CES will be required.
Best management practices for erosion control shall be implemented prior to construction activities and maintained at all times during construction to prevent siltation and turbid discharges. Install erosion control measures along the perimeter of all work areas to prevent the displacement of fill material outside the work area into waters of the United States. Immediately after completion of the final grading of the land surface, all slopes, land surfaces, and filled areas shall be stabilized using appropriate vegetation, degradable mats, barriers, or a combination of similar stabilizing materials to prevent erosion. Methods could also include, but are not limited to the use of staked hay bales, staked filter cloth, sodding, seeding, and mulching; staged construction; and the installation of turbidity screens around the immediate project site. Identify and cover Stormwater structures using protection devices before performing any work. Devices must remain in place until all work is complete and the area has been cleaned and free of construction potential discharges. The erosion control measures shall remain in place and be maintained until all work is completed and the work areas are stabilized.
There shall be no work, storage, or stockpiling of tools, materials (i.e. lumber, pilings, debris) within wetlands, ditches, swales, or elsewhere within waters of the state unless authorized by permit. All stormwater conveyance structures shall remain in operable condition and shall not be allowed to deteriorate or otherwise contribute to a water quality violation. Construction activities shall be conducted in a manner that does not cause or contribute to violations of state water quality standards.
An FDEP permit maybe required for the installation, maintenance, repair, and removal of underground utility lines, cable, conduit, or pipeline transmitting electricity, communication signals, potable water, raw water, reclaimed water, domestic wastewater, propane gas or natural gas. 62-330.453 within the Florida Administrative Code dictates that a General Permit is needed for Installation, Maintenance, Repair, and Removal of Utility Lines that cross a regulated surface of the state. In this case the ditches/swales maybe considered a regulated surface water.
All electric, gas, water, sewer, and other services lines should be shut off, capped, or otherwise properly controlled, at or outside the building before demolition work is started. In each case, any utility company that is involved should be notified in advance, and its approval or services, if necessary, shall be obtained. Coordinate with the 325 CES/CEIC, GCEC, and Bioenvironmental regarding flushing and water quality sampling prior to and after performing any work.
If it is necessary to maintain any power, water, sewer, or other utilities during demolition, such lines shall be temporarily relocated as necessary and/or protected. The location of all power sources should also be determined, as they can prove especially hazardous during any machine demolition. All workers should be informed of the location of any existing or relocated utility service. Coordinate with the 325 CES/CEIC, GCEC, and Bioenvironmental regarding flushing and water quality sampling prior to and after performing any work.
All material used as fill shall be clean sand/fill dirt/shell material and shall not be contaminated with vegetation, garbage, trash, tires, hazardous waste, or other materials that are not suitable for construction.
A Construction Generic Permit (CGP)/Notice of Intent (NOI) will be required from the FDEP. Any act or process of developing or improving land, including demolition and renovation activity, which involves the disturbance of soils not limited to, clearing, grading, and excavation that reaches an acre of total disturbed area would require the CGP. This permit is different than an ERP. This permit does include dewatering. If dewatering is needed, please coordinate with the 325 CES/CEIEC, additional permits maybe required.
UFC 3-201-01 – Civil Engineering provides planning, design, construction, sustainment, restoration, and modernization criteria, and applies to the Military Departments, the Defense Agencies, and the DoD Field Activities in accordance with USD (AT&L) Memorandum dated 29 May 2002. This UFC will be used for all DoD projects and work for other customers where appropriate.
Section 3-3.2 – Erosion and Sediment Control states “Design erosion and sediment controls that minimize the discharge of pollutants from earth disturbing activities in conformance with the applicable requirements of the regulatory agency with jurisdiction over the Installation regarding erosion and sediment control. Where requirements do not exist, provide an erosion and sediment control plan in accordance with the requirements of Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) Construction General Permit.”
This project will require a completed Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) in accordance with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP)/EPA standards. Please provide a SWPPP for review, prior to CGP submittal. The FDEP has generated a template to be used (https://floridadep.gov/sites/default/files/ConstructionSWPPP.pdf). Work specific Best Management Practices (BMP’s) shall be implemented prior to construction activities and maintained at all times during construction to prevent siltation and turbid discharges. Identify and cover Stormwater structures using protection devices before performing any work. The BMP’s are to be installed along the perimeter of all work areas to prevent the displacement of fill material outside the work area into surface waters, stormwater inlets, etc. Immediately after completion of the final grading of the land surface, all slopes, land surfaces, and filled areas shall be stabilized using approved sod, seeding, degradable mats, staked hay bales, staked filter cloth, barriers, turbidity screens, or a combination of similar stabilizing materials to prevent erosion.
The erosion control measures shall remain in place and be maintained until all authorized work is completed and the work areas are stabilized and verified by USAF personnel.
All permit applications must be reviewed by CEIEC and signed by the 325th CES Commander prior to submittal. All costs associated with permits will be paid for by the contractor. All costs associated with any environmental sampling will be paid for by the contractor. It is the contractor’s responsibility to verify with all necessary regulatory agencies if any permits are required and/or provide written concurrence from the necessary agencies that no permits would be required prior to starting work, unless a viable regulation is noted detailing the activity would not require prior authorization and is agreed upon by the 325 CES/CEIEC.
Soil Impact:
Soil disturbances in the area will be substantial, contractor is responsible for applying for permits and properly managing unused soil. The project area is not within an area of contamination.
Any excess excavated soil/sand must be applied to the excavation site but it must not create mounding or any elevation changes from the design. Otherwise, it must be moved to the appropriate soil stockpile as directed by the government.
If fill soil is needed, it must be certified clean IAW Non-ERP Soil Guidelines Section #3.
Biological Resources:
The proposed action would not impact Biological resources Proposed action is not sited in 100-year floodplain/wetlands.
Cultural Resources Impact:
The proposed undertakings has been coordinated with the State Historical Preservation Office and a finding of no adverse effect has been received.

AIR CONFORMITY APPLICABILITY MODEL REPORT
RECORD OF AIR ANALYSIS (ROAA)
1. General Information: The Air Force’s Air Conformity Applicability Model (ACAM) was used to perform an analysis to assess the potential air quality impact/s associated with the action in accordance with the Air Force Instruction 32-7040, Air Quality Compliance And Resource Management; the Environmental Impact Analysis Process (EIAP, 32 CFR 989); and the General Conformity Rule (GCR, 40 CFR 93 Subpart B). This report provides a summary of the ACAM analysis.
a. Action Location:
Base: TYNDALL AFB State: Florida County(s): Bay Regulatory Area(s): NOT IN A REGULATORY AREA
b. Action Title: Construct Honor guard Facility
c. Project Number/s (if applicable):
d. Projected Action Start Date: 5 / 2023
e. Action Description:
The proposed action will be to construct a new facility approximately 3,250 SF. The facility will include administrative and maintenance services complete with associated utilities to include communications; electric;
heating, ventilation, and air conditioning; lightning protection; and fire protection/alarm system. Additional pavement to support training and to accommodate parking will be approximately 15,100 SF. Utilities will be run to the facility to include communications, electric, sewer, and water. Existing lines running beneath the site will be moved as needed to accommodate the facility. Digging and trenching is expected. Trenches will be 2 feet wide by 3 feet deep. All disturbed materials will remain on site. The estimated elevation of the site is 15-16 feet above sea level. Enough fill material will be brought in and placed on site to elevate the facility to the minimum 19-foot design flood elevation. Volume of fill is estimated at a maximum of 3,000 CY. Exterior paving and sidewalks, curbs, gutters, access drives, exterior lighting, grading, and physical security requirements are also included. Two locations were selected for potential stormwater ponds. Each pond would be approximately 3,000 SF. A comprehensive storm sewer system shall be designed to facilitate positive drainage of the facility and general site. The design shall be for a 10-year, 24-hour storm occurrence. All storm drainage system piping shall be reinforced concrete pipe. All gutters and downspouts shall connect to the storm sewer system.
Alternatives Considered:
A total of 7 sites were evaluated for feasibility. The other COAs proved to be unsuitable for various reasons such as noise concerns from the Honor Guard mission, incompatible surrounding uses, locations being within ERP sites, or conflicts with other Tyndall Rebuild activities.
The additional sites considered were: Undeveloped lot North of Sabre Dr., South of Road 31B, and West of
Road 31; Undeveloped Lot North of Beacon Beach Rd between AFNORTH and Education Center;
Undeveloped Lot North of Beacon Beach Rd and North of Education Center; Undeveloped Lot South of Beacon Beach Rd and West of Archer’s Range; Undeveloped Lot South of Beacon Beach Rd and East of Archer’s Range; Undeveloped lot North of Mississippi Rd and West of Score Booth (Building #1126);
Undeveloped lot North of Mississippi Rd and West of Pest Management (Building #1701).
No Action Alternative: Status Quo. If the facility is not constructed, the Honor Guard will be without a home to perform its functions. This would lead to a degradation of services.

2. Air Impact Analysis: Based on the attainment status at the action location, the requirements of the General Conformity Rule are:
_____ applicable __X__ not applicable
Total combined direct and indirect emissions associated with the action were estimated through ACAM on a calendar-year basis for the “worst-case” and “steady state” (net gain/loss upon action fully implemented) emissions.
“Air Quality Indicators” were used to provide an indication of the significance of potential impacts to air quality.
These air quality indicators are EPA General Conformity Rule (GCR) thresholds (de minimis levels) that are applied out of context to their intended use. Therefore, these indicators do not trigger a regulatory requirement; however, they provide a warning that the action is potentially significant. It is important to note that these indicators only provide a clue to the potential impacts to air quality.
Given the GCR de minimis threshold values are the maximum net change an action can acceptably emit in non-attainment and maintenance areas, these threshold values would also conservatively indicate an actions emissions within an attainment would also be acceptable. An air quality indicator value of 100 tons/yr is used based on the GCR de minimis threshold for the least severe non-attainment classification for all criteria pollutants (see 40 CFR 93.153). Therefore, the worst-case year emissions were compared against the GCR Indicator and are summarized below.
Analysis Summary:
Pollutant Action Emissions (ton/yr) AIR QUALITY INDICATOR
Threshold (ton/yr) Exceedance (Yes or No)
NOT IN A REGULATORY AREA
VOC 0.585 100 No NOx 3.218 100 No CO 4.202 100 No SOx 0.010 100 No PM 10 1.963 100 No PM 2.5 0.132 100 No Pb 0.000 25 No NH3 0.002 100 No CO2e 972.1

TYNDALL AIR FORCE BASE
Archaeological sites on Tyndall Air
Force Base are protected from damage and destruction by the
Archaeological Resources Protection
Act, the American Antiquities Act, and many other laws and regulations.
Failure to stop work and report an inadvertent discovery is illegal, and can lead to a ban on base access, contract loss, fines, and jail time.
It’s the Law!
Discovered materials are often thousands of years old, and can be hard to recognize. Signs that you may have encountered an archaeological site include
An INADVERTENT DISCOVERY occurs when a project unearths evidence of past people or extinct animals. This evidence is called an
ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE. Archaeological sites can be found anywhere on base, above and below the ground.
What is an
INADVERTENT DISCOVERY?
Will I discover an
ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE?
How do I RECOGNIZE an inadvertent discovery?
What should I do if I
FIND something?
Tyndall is required by law to search for and docu-ment archaeological sites before any projects oc-cur. Projects are planned to avoid archaeological sites so discoveries are RARE.
A thick layer of shells may indicate an archaeological site.
The Cultural Resources Program will send an archaeologist to view the discovery, and determine if it requires documentation.
Work can often resume QUICKLY outside of a perimeter set by the archaeologist.
When can I RESUME work?
STOP all ground-disturbance and REPORT the discovery to your supervisor, contract representative, or unit commander. Your contact should immediately notify the Cultural Resources
Program of the discovery.
An example of an abrupt change in soil color.
Unusual or abrupt changes in soil color, especially to rich black soil.
Thick layers or scatters of seashells, angular rocks, or flat rock-like objects.
Layers or scatters of broken dishes, old bottles, or bricks.
Burned soil or ash.
Large timbers or cut wood.
Bones or teeth

Record of Hazardous Waste Determination for Solid Waste Disposal
A Hazardous Waste Determination (HWD) IAW 40 CFR 262.11 is required for all Solid Wastes. The 40 CFR 262.11 procedure can be summarized by answering these four questions.
Contract Name: _________________________________ Contract Number: ______________________
Company Name: ________________________________ Building Number: ______________________
Description of Waste being determined: __________________________________________________
1. Is this material a Solid Waste? Yes No
a. A Solid Waste is and material or waste that one decides to discard.
b. The physical state of the material is insignificant regarding the answer to whether a Solid Waste has been generated because the EPA has defined any material that the decision has been made to discard is a Solid Waste.
2. Is the material Exempt by EPA rule? Yes (Rule: ___________) No
a. The EPA has made many exemptions from the Hazardous Waste Regulations regarding specific wastes.
b. Recycling is an example of using EPA’s exceptions. The material in question and the manner in which it is recycled dictates what the rules that need to be followed. As indicated in Table 1 of 40 CFR 261.2, most materials are Solid Wastes even if they are recycled.
3. Is the Solid Waste listed by the EPA as a Hazardous Waste? Yes No
a. The EPA has created four lists that impose Hazardous Waste Disposal by any waste generated by the processes described on each of the lists.
b. The listed Hazardous Waste is as follows:
i. Waste from Non-Specific Sources (F List)
ii. Waste from Specific Sources (K List)
iii. Commercial Chemical Products that are Acutely Hazardous (P List)
iv. Commercial Chemical Products (U List)
4. Does the waste have any Hazardous Characteristics? Yes No
a. The EPA has created four characteristics that impose Hazardous Waste Disposal by any waste generated that exhibit the characteristics of Ignitability, Corrosively, Reactivity, or Toxicity.
i. The majority of Ignitable Hazardous Waste is those liquids that have a flash point of less than 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Flammable Solids, Flammable Gases or Oxidizers are also ignitable characteristics.
ii. The Characteristic of Corrosivity (COC) is for aqueous liquids that have a pH of less than 2.0 or greater than 12.5. Liquids can also have the COC if the waste can corrode steel at a rate greater than one quarter inch per year.
iii. The Reactive Characteristic are those waste that would undergo a violent chemical reaction that may cause harm to human health or the environment.
iv. A waste has the Toxicity Characteristic when the results of a representative sample of the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) are greater than any chemical in 40 CFR 261.24 Table 1.
