F-22 Basing Plans Announced

The Air Force published a notice of intent in the federal register in March to prepare an environmental impact statement for a proposal for operating locations of the initial F-22 wing, a total of seventy-two aircraft grouped into three squadrons. The Air Force will screen five locations initially, including Langley AFB, Virginia; Eglin and Tyndall AFBs, Florida; Elmendorf AFB, Alaska; and Mountain Home AFB, Idaho. Langley is the preferred alternative, but each location will be screened to determine if it warrants detailed analysis in the impact statement.

The Air Force projects the environmental analysis process will be completed in about two years. The analysis will examine issues relating to land use, airspace and safety, air and water quality, noise, socio-economic factors, biological and cultural resources, and cumulative actions. The Air Force will conduct the first phase of scoping meetings in each of the five potential locations. A second round of meetings will be conducted in the locations selected for detailed analysis.
