Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on the Disposal and 
Reuse of the BRAC Parcel at Tooele Army Depot, Tooele, Utah

agency: Department of the Army, DOD.

action: Notice of Availability.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

summary: The proposed action evaluated by this EIS is the disposal of 
the 1700 acre BRAC parcel at Tooele Army Depot, Tooele, Utah in 
accordance with the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act of 1990, 
Public Law 101-510. The Draft EIS addresses the environmental 
consequences of the disposal and subsequent reuse of the 1700 acres. 
Three alternative methods of disposal are analyzed: Encumbered 
Disposal, Unencumbered Disposal and retention of the property in a 
caretaker status (i.e., the No Action Alternative). The Encumbered 
Disposal Alternative addresses natural or man-made encumbrances to the 
future reuse. The Unencumbered Disposal Alternative evaluates the 
potential to remove encumbrances, thereby allowing the property to be 
disposed of with fewer or no Army imposed restrictions on future use. 
The impacts of reuse are evaluated in terms of land use intensities.
    A scoping meeting was held at the Tooele Senior Citizen's Center on 
October 29, 1994. Public notices requesting input and comments from

Depot.

dates: Written public comments and suggestions received within 45 days 
of the publication of the Environmental Protection Agency's Notice of 
Availability for this action will be addressed in the Final 
Environmental Impact Statement.
