AF IMT 813 Review Checklist Repair Beacon Beach Road

Mr. Gerald Laver, 28 June 2022 This checklist provides an overview for conducting a legal review of an AF IMT 813, Request For Environmental Impact Analysis (Form 813). The Air Force uses Form 813 to document the need for environmental analysis under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), 42 U.S.C. Sec. 4321-4370f, or for certain Categorical Exclusions (CATEX) determinations for proposed actions. Generally, the AF IMT 813 is the starting point that initiates the AF Environmental Impact Analysis Process (EIAP). An attorney reviews the AF IMT 813 to ensure the proposed project meets the requirements of NEPA and the EIAP. If after completing the checklist, any one of blocks 1-19 are not checked or marked N/A, the AF Form 813 will be legally insufficient.

The AF EIAP regulation can be found at 32 CFR Part 989. AFI 32-7061, The Environmental Impact Analysis Process which adopts 32 CFR Part 989, is the controlling instruction for AF EIAP. CATEX determinations and descriptions identified by number are found in 32 CFR Pt 989 Appendix B.

If you have questions not addressed by the checklist, or you are uncertain about the sufficiency of the analysis in any portion of the AF Form 813, please contact your MAJCOM-ELO (Maj Milott). If you are coordinating with the Environmental Law Field Support Center Planning and Sustainment Branch, they may be contacted at 210-395-8998, DSN 969-8998 or by email at afloa.jaceps@us.af.mil.

Check if Met

Comments

SECTION I - PROPONENT INFORMATION

1. Blocks 1-3, Blocks 6-6b have been completed

Blocks comprised of self-explanatory administrative data.

X

2. Block 4 - Proponent has included a purpose and need statement in block or in an attachment.

3. Purpose statement clearly describes what the proponent intends to accomplish with the action.

4. Need statement clearly identifies why the proposed action is necessary.

Examples could include mission requirements or legal/regulatory changes, etc.

5. Block 5- Description of Proposed Action and Alternatives Proposed Action (DOPAA)

Block includes description of what action the proponent wants to take.

6. Description of proposed action is sufficiently detailed to ensure it meets the purpose and need as articulated in Block 4.

Block 5 may contain reasonable alternatives to the proposed action along with the no action alternative. Those items will be addressed at a later point in the checklist.

SECTION II – PRELIMINARY ENVIRONMENTAL SURVEY

7. One of the columns under each Block 7-16

Checked.

8. Blocks 7-16 Assessment makes sense based upon the type of action

Use common sense, for instance, if the proposed action requires filling some portion of a wetland and block 12 no effect is checked there are likely questions that you need to ask the environmental planner.

The culvert replacement and a portion of the mill and overlay are within the boundaries of Environmental Restoration Program (ERP) Site FR038.

Although FR038 has been remediated to meet remedial goals below industrial levels, contamination still exists and dig guidelines must be followed. Metals (lead, antimony, arsenic) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contaminated soils and groundwater have been identified as potential contaminants at FR038. Consequently, construction projects within the ERP site boundaries will need to be conducted within the guidelines provided. Review has been coordinated with ELFSC.

The proposed project was coordinated with the State Historical Preservation Office with a finding of no adverse effect. Based on the archaeological materials documented near Culvert #2, however, Tyndall recognizes that the undertaking has the potential to unearth additional archaeological materials during the replacement of the culvert. However, the presence of a professional archaeological monitor, who meets or exceeds the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Archaeologists, during the culvert replacement should mitigate these adverse effects. All work should cease and the Cultural Resources Manager should be contacted if archaeological deposits or human remains are encountered. Contractor must be trained on inadvertent discoveries, training pamphlet will be provided. Archeological monitoring is required for Culvert #2 replacement.

9. Action assessed to have unknown environmental impacts If NO then mark as N/A.

If the action has any unknown effects, the decision maker cannot determine that unknown effects are not significant. A CATEX cannot be applied at this time and an Environmental Assessment (EA) or Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) should be considered.

N/A

10. Action assessed to have potential adverse effects in blocks 7-16.

If NO, then mark as N/A.

If an action has any potential adverse effect it will probably result in an Environmental Assessment (EA) or an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and will not qualify for a categorical exclusion

(CATEX)

If uncertain contact ELO or Planning and Sustainment Branch of ELFSC.

SECTION III – ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS DETERMINATION

11. Block 17 indicates a CATEX is applicable.

If NO Mark Checklist Items 11-15 N/A and skip to

12. CATEX applied has been identified by number

CATEX descriptions identified by number are found in 32 CFR Pt 989 Appendix B

CATEX A2.3.11, “Action similar to other actions which have been determined to have an insignificant impact in a similar setting as established in an EA resulting in a FONSI.” The Environmental Assessment for Hurricane Recovery and Installation Development at Tyndall Air Force Base, April 2020, is the approved environmental document cited for CATEX.

13. CATEX applied is consistent with the description of the proposed action.

If NO, determine if another CATEX in Appendix B might apply. If one does discuss with environmental planner and have form accomplished again.

If uncertain about the proper application of a particular CATEX contact ELO or Planning and Sustainment Branch of ELFSC.

Proposed action is in the same general area and similar to proposed actions evaluated in the EA resulting in a FONSI.

14. Review 32 CFR 989, Appendix B, A2.2. Categories of Actions with “unique circumstances” described in subparagraphs have not been implicated.

If categories have been implicated, application of a CATEX may be legally insufficient and additional analysis may be required.

If uncertain whether A2.2 has been implicated or whether it precludes the application of a CATEX, contact ELO or Planning and Sustainment Branch of

ELFSC

Certain CATEX’s will require review of additional documents, you must be certain to review all necessary documentation that supports analysis. Two common instances are listed below. Review CATEX to determine if other documentation also needs review.

A2.3.7 requires proposal to have been originally evaluated in accordance with applicable regulations.

A2.3.11 requires proposal to be sufficiently similar to other project with EA/FONSI or EIS (an EBS is insufficient).

15. Use of CATEX is consistent with Preliminary

Environmental Survey

Checklist Item #9 MUST be marked N/A

Checklist Item #10 MUST be marked N/A OR you have consulted your environmental planner and/or ELO and are satisfied that the application of a CATEX is consistent with 32 CFR 989.13(b)

32 CFR 989.13 provides guidance regarding the applicability of a CATEX. Per 989.13(b) categories of actions that ordinarily do not require an EA or EIS include: “Minimal adverse environmental impacts.”

If adverse impacts are indicated further environmental study is then ordinarily done, however, if the action fits within CATEX and the adverse impacts are consistent with 32 CFR 989.13(b)(1) document may be considered legally sufficient.

16. Block 17 - indicates further environmental analysis required.

If NO mark as N/A then move to Checklist Item #17.

17. Block 17 – not completed

If Either box on Block 17 has been checked mark as N/A.

There may be instances where the AF Form 813 is being used to record the fact that environmental issues were considered but that neither a CATEX nor further study was required. In this instance you should see some further information in Block 18 of the form. If you encounter this situation, contact your ELO or the ELFSC Planning and Sustainment Branch to discuss prior to determining legal sufficiency.

18 Block 18 offers valid explanation how AF Form 813 is being used to create a record of environmental consideration when an action is not subject to a CATEX and does not require further environmental analysis.

An example of a situation where this would apply is where an action that does not fit into a CATEX and there will clearly be NO environmental impacts arising from the action but a record is required

Circumstances where this would occur are likely to be rare, please contact ELO or Planning and Sustainment Branch of ELFSC to discuss.

19. Block 18 includes a statement indicating that conformity requirements pursuant to Section 176(c) of the Clean Air Act have been addressed. See 32

CFR 989.30

Possible examples of an appropriate statement could be:

“The proposed action will occur in an area that is in attainment for all criteria pollutants and no conformity determination under the Clean Air Act is required”; or

“The proposed action will occur in an area that is in nonattainment for [insert criteria pollutant]; however emissions from the action will be de minimus so no conformity determination under the Clean Air Act is required.”

Note: If Block 17 indicates that further environmental analysis must be completed, conformity requirements will be addressed in the EA/EIS and this checklist Item may be checked.

Action will occur within an attainment area, making the action exempt from General Conformity (GC). See Air Quality EIAP Guide Volume I, Table 5- 2, List of GC Exemptions; EIAP Guide p. 49; 40 CFR 93.153.

ACAM Modeling was performed, based on the results the air quality in the area would not be significantly impacted by the proposed project; therefore a conformity determination is not required.

If GC is otherwise required, conformity exemption based on CATEX A2.3.11 is available if the prior FONSI action evaluated air quality and identified air quality impact as not significant using the 2014 (or newer) version of ACAM, and the new proposed action’s scope, activity, and size are equal to or less than the prior FONSI action. Air conformity modeling was conducted for this project as part of the referenced EA, based upon which a Conformity Determination is not required for this action.

The Final Environmental Assessment for Hurricane Recovery and Installation Development at Tyndall Air Force Base, Florida meets these criteria, see vol. 1, pp. 4-1 to 4-5. Scope, activity and size of this action is less than that studied by referenced action which found for the actions studied that “Proposed Actions, all attainment criteria pollutants are below the significance indicators presented in Tables 4.1-1a through 4.1-1g.

If you have questions contact your ELO or the Planning and Sustainment Branch of ELFSC to discuss.

Therefore, the potential air quality impact from all criteria pollutants is insignificant.”

20. Block 18: information in block does not impact the previously reviewed information.

If Block 18 does impact previous analysis, reconcile questions before determining legal sufficiency.

If you are uncertain about whether comments included in Block 18 call into question the other Checklist Items previously reviewed, contact ELO or Planning and Sustainment Branch at ELFSC for assistance.

21. Return to Block 5 on Form 813

Block 5 Includes reasonable alternatives to the Proposed Action (ONLY REQUIRED IF

FURTHER ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYIS

REQUIRED)

AF must analyze reasonable alternatives for all EA’s and EIS’s. See 32 CFR 989.8(a). The Block 5 DOPAA will serve as the basis for the DOPAA in an EA/EIS if needed and should identify reasonable alternatives.

Sometimes proponent will include reasonable alternatives for projects subject to valid CATEX.

This is acceptable but not required.

22. Block 5 identifies that No action alternative is included in DOPAA.

Unless otherwise excused by law the no action alternative must be analyzed. See 32 CFR 989.8(a).

If the Status Quo is maintained, pavement will further deteriorate until it becomes unusable. This will directly impact the ability of vehicles and personnel to enter, exit, and navigate the area.

(ONLY REQUIRED IF FURTHER

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS REQUIRED)

Sometimes proponent will include no action alternative for projects subject to valid CATEX.

This is acceptable but not required.

Repair Beacon Beach Road, AF Form 813 continuation sheet

4.0 Purpose and Need for Action:

The purpose of the proposed action is to repair Beacon Beach Road and supporting features.

The action is needed due to deterioration of the road and some of the areas have collapsed.

5.0 Description of the Proposed Action and Alternatives (DOPAA):

The proposed action will involve the following actions:

Description and Ground Impacts:

The project consists of four main parts: Mill & Overlay (1.5"), Mill & Overlay (2"), replace culverts, and replace reflectors.

Mill & Overlay (1.5") A. Milling of approximately 3,250 LF of roadway (Suwannee Rd to B1212 AFNORTH Killey Center).

B. Repair of base material not to exceed 5% of total roadway.

C. Resurface of approximately 3,250 LF of roadway.

D. Re-striping of approximately 3,250 LF of roadway.

Mill & Overlay (2") A. Milling of approximately 10,100 LF of roadway (B1212 AFNORTH Killey Center to Prime Beef Rd) B. Repair of base material not to exceed 5% of total roadway.

C. Resurface of approximately 10,100 LF of roadway.

D. Re-striping of approximately 10,100 LF of roadway.

Replace Culverts: Culvert # 1 will be up-sized to an 18” by 24” reinforced concrete pipe (RCP), Culvert #2 will match existing size and type.

A. Excavate existing culverts.

B. Install new culverts.

C. Repair road base.

D. Install new head walls and or concrete mitered ends.

E. Clean out surrounding inlet and outfall to ensure proper flow.

F. Repair multi model track affected by culvert replacements.

Replace reflectors: Remove and install new reflectors on approximately 8500 LF of roadway.

A. Remove approximately 2,850 road reflectors.

B. Install approximately 2,850 USDOT approved road reflectors.

No Action Alternative: Status Quo. If the Status Quo is maintained, pavement will further deteriorate until it becomes unusable. This will directly impact the ability of vehicles and personnel to enter, exit, and navigate the area.

5.1 Anticipated Environmental Issues:

None

5.2 Environmental Impacts:

AICUZ/ Noise:

The proposed actions would result in a localized and temporary increase in noise levels due to construction and demolition. This noise is not expected to be significant. The proposed action would not significantly contribute to the noise levels of 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. ACAM Modeling was performed and 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:

Coordination is required with the FDEP and USACE to determine if jurisdictional waters are impacted for the culvert replacements. If waters are jurisdictional there is a potential need for permitting through the agencies.

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 not 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 Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) in accordance with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP)/EPA standards. Please provide a SWPPP for review. 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.

Soil Impact:

The culvert replacement and a portion of the mill and overlay is within the boundaries of Environmental Restoration Program (ERP) Sites FR038. FR038 has been remediated to meet the remedial goals to below industrial levels however, contamination still exists and dig guidelines must be followed. Metals (lead, antimony, arsenic) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contaminated soils and groundwater have been identified as potential contaminants at FR038. Construction projects within ERP site boundaries shall be conducted within the attached guidelines.

If fill soil is needed, it must be certified clean IAW Non-ERP Soil Guidelines Section #3.

Biological Resources:

There will be no impacts to biological resources with the proposed action.

Cultural Resources Impact:

The Area Potential Effect was coordinated with the State Historical Preservation Office and a finding of no adverse effect was received. Based on the archaeological materials documented near Culvert #2, Tyndall recommends that the undertaking has the potential to unearth additional archaeological materials during the replacement of the culvert. However, the presence of a professional archaeological monitor, who meets or exceeds the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Archaeologists, during the culvert replacement should mitigate these adverse effects. All work should cease and the Cultural Resources Manager should be contacted if archaeological deposits or human remains are encountered. Contractor must be trained on inadvertent discoveries, training pamphlet will be provided. Archeological monitoring is required for Culvert #2 replacement.

Hazardous Materials:

A letter of review from 325 CES/CEIEC Must be accomplished prior to commencement of work.

The contractor shall submit TAFB Form 81 (Contractor Questionnaire) and TAFB Form 82 (Chemical Inventory) if applicable (within 10 duty days after the Notice to Proceed is issued), for review.

The Contractor should note that Tyndall AFB is required to report chemicals used such as (but not limited to) compressed gases, adhesives, aerosol cans, sealants, paints, lubricants, oils, cleaners, degreasers, pesticides, Fuels. Copies of manufacturer-specific Safety Data Sheets (SDS) must be attached to TAFB Form 82. These SDSs shall also be readily accessible at the location of each hazardous material. After submission, 325 CES/CEIE will notify the Project Manager and/or CONS of the reportable chemicals and of any special instructions. As directed by the CO, the Contractor is required to submit TAFB Form 83 (Reporting Entry Form) showing material usage monthly until completion of the task order. The CO must be notified of any changes from the original submittal (i.e. new chemical is added, size of container or unit of issue changes or if the manufacturer changes), changes must be submitted using TAFB form 82. An updated letter of review indicating changes will be sent from CEIEC to the Contracting Office before the material can be brought onto the installation. Prime contractors shall be responsible to ensure all sub-contractors comply with this section.

Hazardous Waste:

Re: DHR Project No.: 2022-3041

Proposed Repairs to Beacon Beach Road (TY-2022-19) Tyndall Air Force Base, Bay County

Dear Mr. Cintron:

This office reviewed the referenced project for possible impact to historic properties listed, or eligible for listing, in the National Register of Historic Places. The review was conducted in accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended and 36 CFR Part 800: Protection of Historic Properties.

We note that the replacement of Culvert #2 is located near the recorded archaeological site 8BY2275. The Navy has indicated that a qualified archaeologist will monitor all excavation and ground disturbing activities in this area.

Therefore, based on the information provided and the conditions outlined in your letter concerning archaeological monitoring, this office concurs with your finding that the proposed undertaking should have no adverse effect on historic properties. A copy of the resultant monitoring report must be forwarded to this office after completion of the project.

If you have any questions concerning our comments, please contact Scott Edwards, Historic Preservationist, by electronic mail scott.edwards@dos.
