Environmental Assessment for the Construction of a Phase I Surface Deployment and Distribution Command Transportation Command Consolidation Facility and a Phase I & II Mobility Air Force Logistics Support Center

Abstract : According to 2005 Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) requirements, Scott AFB must provide a joint operations center to house a consolidated Transportation Command (TRANSCOM) to include the Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC) operations formerly located in Virginia, the planning and analysis components of the United States Air Force Tanker Airlift Control Center (TACC), and the United States TRANSCOM Deployment and Distribution Operation Center (DDOC). Another BRAC requirement establishes the Mobility Air Force Logistics Support Center (MAF LSC) at Scott AFB by realigning Regional Supply Squadron positions from Florida and Germany, as well as Logistics Readiness Squadron positions from Arkansas and Oklahoma. Currently there is no administrative space available at Scott AFB to accommodate these offices. Therefore, the Air Force proposes to construct a temporary TRANSCOM facility (hereafter referred to as the SDDC TRANSCOM facility) as well as temporary and permanent MAF LSC facilities to accommodate inbound personnel.
