THIS FORM CONSOLIDATES AF FORMS 813 AND 814.

AF IMT 813, SEP 99, CONTINUATION SHEET

Section I: Continued #5. Continued: The following activities are required to make a new area functional for the Foreign Partners to continue testing.

1. Realign existing shelters and add new shelters for a total of up to 5 shelters on Ramp 10

2. DMRT Relocation (1830)

3. 3 Power Convertors for DMRT (1830)

10. 9 Conex on Ramp 10 West side plus 4 connex next to the sidewalk between 1830 and 1830A.

11. Purchase new 100 amp power converter

12. Constructe concrete pads for electrical panels and conexs

13. Infrastructure Electrical and Comm

14. Remove and re-install 270 power units

15. 1830A comm- Install of fiber using existing conduit/penetrations

Section II: Continued The proposed action will have no impact on the following resources:

7. AICUZ - Land use would not change from existing conditions. Project activities are occurring in areas that are compatible with the Base Installation Development Plan. Increases in noise levels associated with construction activities would be short-term, intermittent, and highly localized to industrial areas where noise levels are already elevated to the 65- 85+ decibel day-night average; therefore, any increases in noise levels in the area would be negligible, not accumulate over time and would cease with the completion of the project activities. Additionally, all noise generated from construction/demolition activities would be limited to daytime hours. Workers in areas where noise levels would exceed permissible noise exposure shall wear hearing protection, thus eliminating any potentially significant impacts to workers.

10. Safety and Occupational Health- Project activities may result in an increased exposure to safety and occupational health hazards. These hazards include increased exposure to hazardous materials, such as asbestos containing materials (ACM) and lead-based paint (LBP) from unearthed items or when working inside of 1830. Guidance procedures for administrative and operations plans for managing ACM and LBP that are listed in the Edwards AFB Lead Management Plan and Asbestos Management Plan shall be followed. To further mitigate any impacts from exposure to, management of, and disposal of ACM and LBP to less than significant, the implementation of measures 42 through 43 in the attached Minimization Measures is required. All work of a hazardous nature shall require the completion of a Health and Safety Plan. A permit from the California Occupational Safety and Health Administration shall be obtained for trench work 5 feet or deeper into which a person is required to descend. ERP concerns are addressed in Geology and Soils section.

12. Biological Resources - Construction impacts to surrounding vegetative resources are expected to be negligible due to the lack of vegetation communities present in the areas immediately surrounding the project location. There is little to no undisturbed vegetation within the project area; therefore, there will be no loss of quality habitat for wildlife. Furthermore, the additional analysis requirement of A2.2.6 due to the presence of threatened or endangered species… was completed by the 412 CEG/CEVA Natural Resources Manager, in accordance with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Biological Opinion for:

Operations and Activities Edwards Air Force Base, California (8-8-14-F-14) regarding the effects on the federally threatened desert tortoise and its critical habitat and who added Minimization Measures 55 through 57, to ensure any impacts to the desert tortoise, Mohave ground squirrel and migratory birds remain less than significant. A Desert Tortoise Handout is also included in the 813 attachments.

13. Cultural Resources - The Edwards Air Force Base Cultural Resources Manager has reviewed the proposed project activities and has concluded, “…will not have an adverse effect to historic properties. However, this planned update to building 1830 will have an effect and require a No Adverse Effect consultation with the California State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO).” The CRM added the bullet below and included inadvertent discovery measures for archaeological resources and human remains in the Minimization Measures (Measures 59) for new construction activities involving ground disturbance.

• If any modifications will be made to the interior or exterior of building 1830, the CRM will be notified at 412CEG.CEVA.CulturalResources@us.af.mil prior to the initiation of these actions. The SHPO will have to be consulted for a finding of No Adverse Effect before proceeding.

14. Geology and Soils- The project is within ERP Site 18. There is no known contaminated soil, but there is contaminated groundwater beneath the project area. The ERP Operable Unit Manager has reviewed this project and does not anticipate any concerns. The depth to groundwater in this area is about 21 feet, therefore construction activities are not expected to come into contact with any contaminated groundwater. To eliminate vapor intrusion concerns, trailers or modular facilities (permanent or temporary) must be elevated to ensure a ventilated air gap exists between ground surface and bottom of the building. Any facility being placed on a concrete slab shall have a vapor barrier device installed on the foundation. To further eliminate any concerns regarding the ERP Site 18, if soil discoloration or odors are noticed during construction activities, then all work will stop and the proponent will notify the Operable Unit Manager and Bioenvironmental Engineering. ERP OU Manager added measures #29-32, to ensure impacts remain less than significant.

15. Socioeconomic - The Proposed Actions may provide short term revenue to local contractors, but it would be a minor benefit.

There may be impacts to the following resources; however, any impacts will be minor and short in duration:

8. Air Quality - A major portion of Edwards AFB lies within Eastern Kern Air Pollution Control District (EKAPCD), which is in attainment or unclassified for all U.S. EPA National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS), except PM10 and ground level O3. EKAPCD is classified as serious non-attainment for PM10 and severe non-attainment for ground level O3 resulting in a lower de minimis level. The Eastern edge of Edwards AFB lies within the Mojave Desert Air Quality Management District (MDAQMD), which is in attainment or unclassified with all U.S. EPA NAAQS except PM10 and ground level O3. The Southern edge of Edwards AFB lies within the Antelope Valley Air Quality Management District (AVAQMD) which is in attainment or unclassified for all U.S. EPA NAAQS, except ground level O3. The Proposed Action would impact air quality by increasing emissions from various sources, but would be temporary. A short-term degradation in air quality would be experienced during maintenance and operational activities. Temporary increases in carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, and volatile organic compounds emissions, will cease upon completion of the activity. Air calculations were run for up to, 95300 sq. ft. of new construction to be completed under the Proposed Action, and the emissions have been found to be below the NEPA thresholds. Therefore, emissions produced from the Proposed Action are de minimis and the Proposed Action with this level of activity or less is not subject to a conformity determination under the Clean Air Act (CAA) 40 CFR 93.153. Conformity analysis under the Clean Air Act (CAA) is not required. (40 CFR 93.153).

- Project is for the 14 items listed in Section I, #5.

- Calculations are based on the construction of five buildings, concrete, and asphalt totaling 95,300 sq ft, and 7-month project duration.

-None of estimated emissions associated with this action are above the conformity threshold values established at 40 CFR

93.153 (b); Therefore, the requirements of the General Conformity Rule are not applicable.

9. Water Resources - There are no wetlands or floodplains present. During facility construction, a minimal amount of water usage may be required to control dust emissions; however, this amount is not expected to be significant. Design features to minimize effects of flooding and surface water quality would be implemented, to include following Best Management Practices (BMPs) and preparation of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP); thus, there would be no significant impacts to water resources. Furthermore, the overall design objective for each project is to maintain predevelopment hydrology and prevent any net increase in storm water runoff. Water minimization measures #s 22-24 were added to minimize risks to water resources, and cover BMPs and SWPPP.

11. Hazardous Materials/Waste- Edwards AFB has established programs that control the procurement, storage, use, and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes, which work to minimize risks and costs associated with the cleanup of spills and hazardous waste generation and disposal. Hazardous materials (HM) are authorized and managed in compliance with applicable sections of Air Force Manual 32-7002, Environmental Compliance and Pollution Prevention, and Edwards Air Force Base (AFB) HM policy. All HM must be authorized by Edwards AFB Environmental Management prior to being mailto:412CEG.CEVA.CulturalResources@us.af.mil brought on Base, are documented on the Hazardous Materials Usage Tracking Form, and are tracked in EESOH-MIS. Solid and hazardous wastes (HW) are managed in compliance with the following: Air Force Manual 32-7002, Environmental Compliance and Pollution Prevention; the Edwards Air Force Base (AFB) Hazardous Waste Management Plan (HWMP);

the Edwards AFB Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan; and the California Health and Safety Code (HSC), Title 22 California Code of Regulations (CCR), and Title 40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).

There will be small increases in HM, HW, and solid waste due to project activities; however, they will be short in duration, ending when the project is completed. Therefore, no HM, HW, or solid waste issues are anticipated with the Proposed Action.

HM, HW, and solid waste management are addressed in measures #46-54. Accidental pollution release is addressed in measure #48. An eyewash/shower station and spill kits shall be provided for any potential chemical spills.

Section III- Block 18 (Continued):

The Small Mission EA analyzed the potential effects of adding up to 25 aircraft that would conduct up to 2,000 sorties per year plus bringing up to 1,500 additional military, government civilian, and contractor personnel to support small transient and new test missions that would operate at Edwards AFB and in the R-2508 Complex (i.e., R-2515, PIRA, etc.) The analysis included approximately five percent of the proposed flights operating outside the boundaries of the R-2508 Complex. Ground activities included aircraft and equipment ground system testing, maintenance, preparation, and flight tracking activities. Flight activities included any operations within the capabilities of the aircraft and aircrew, including use of the training routes, supersonic test in the authorized corridors, and weapons testing. Also included in the analysis was construction activities of up to 136,150sqft of hangar and maintenance space, up to 405,000sqft of aircraft parking, and access to the flightline.

The Foreign Partners must vacate their current area due to an incoming project and are relocating to Building 1830 and surrounding area. To allow for effective continued testing of the F-35 during FOT&E, the following are required: realigning and adding shelters to Ramp 10, expansion of Ramp 10, relocating conex and other equipment to Ramp 10, renovating independent (i.e., modulars, pagaoda, etc.) structures within Building 1830, adding freestanding fencing within 1830, adding PL3 security fencing to the perimeter of Ramp 10, etc. No structural work will be performed on Building 1830. This effort is sponsored by the UK and Netherlands Foreign Partners and will be executed by U.S. Air Force and are consistent with activities covered within the Small Missions EA.
