Environmental Assessment, Add/Alter Intelligence Production Complex, National Air & Space Intelligence Center, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base

Abstract : The National Air and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC) has proposed the renovation and construction of additional space for a new Intelligence Production Complex (IPC) at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (WP AFB). The purpose of the proposed action is to provide facilities and space to enable NASIC to accomplish its current and new mission responsibilities for national security. The current NASIC complex of buildings does not have the physical floor space to accommodate the new mission requirements. Existing floor space is already inadequate for efficient execution of currently fragmented operations throughout the complex. No space or facilities exist for mission growth in support of new national security operations and directives. The Proposed Action would include construction of approximately 160,000 SF of multistory, including basement, new facility space and approximately 45,000 SF of altered/renovated space as additions and renovations to Buildings 10828 and 10856 of the NASIC complex. The facilities would consist of reinforced concrete foundations, floor slabs, structural frames, pre-cast concrete walls, and supporting infrastructure including utilities, pavements, communications, fire protection equipment, DOD antiterrorism/ force protection requirements, site improvements, .and related support including a new back-up emergency generator plant. Interior demolition and renovation of portions of the two buildings will also be required including abatement of hazardous materials. The project will also require extensive site work including elimination of sections of Hebble Creek Road and San Antonio Street, rerouting of San Antonio Street, relocation of utilities and underground vaults/lines including steam/high temperature hot water systems, reconfiguration of adjoining parking lots 3A, 9A, 13A , and 14A and construction of a new parking lot east of 14A. Various area roadway intersections wi 11 be improved.
