Environmental Assessment for the Replacement of Water Reservoirs

The U.S. Air Force (Air Force) Air Mobility Command proposes to demolish and replace three water reservoirs, which are concrete storage tanks identified on the Real Property Inventory as Buildings 1516, 1518, and 1520, at Travis Air Force Base (AFB or Base). The purpose of this Environmental Assessment (EA) is to determine whether the Proposed Action would have a significant adverse effect on the quality of the environment. In accordance with Air Force Regulations (Title 32 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Part 989, Environmental Impact Analysis Process), an EA is the appropriate documentation. A Categorical Exclusion is not applicable because the Proposed Action does not meet the criteria for preparing such a document. In addition, an Environmental Impact Statement is not required because impacts potentially resulting from the Proposed Action would not be significant.
