Economic Impact on Communities: This recommendation will not result in any job reductions
(direct or indirect) over the 2006-2011 period in the Fayetteville, NC and Fort Walton Beach-
Crestview-Destin, FL, metropolitan statistical areas. The aggregate economic impact of all
recommended actions on this economic region of influence was considered and is at Appendix B
of Volume I.
Community Infrastructure Assessment: A review of community attributes revealed no
significant issues regarding the ability of the local community's infrastructure to support
missions, forces, and personnel. Of the ten attributes evaluated (Child Care, Cost of Living,
Education, Employment, Housing, Medical Health, Population Center, Safety, Transportation,
and Utilities) two levels of support declined (Cost of Living, Education) when moving activities
from Fort Bragg to Eglin AFB. There are no known community infrastructure impediments to
implementation of all recommendations affecting the installations in this recommendation.
Environmental Impact: This recommendation may result in operational restrictions to protect
cultural or archeological resources at Eglin AFB and Fort Bragg. Tribal consultations may also
be required at both locations. Operations are currently restricted by electromagnetic radiation
and/or emissions and additional operations/training may result in operational restrictions at Eglin
AFB. Further analysis may be necessary to determine the extent of new noise impacts at Eglin
and Bragg. Additional waste production at Eglin may necessitate modifications of hazardous
waste program. Increased water demand at Fort Bragg may lead to further controls and
restrictions and water infrastructure may need upgrades due to incoming population. Additional
operations at Eglin may impact wetlands, resulting in operational restrictions. An evaluation of
operational restrictions for jurisdictional wetlands will likely have to be conducted at Fort Bragg.
Added operations may impact threatened and endangered species at Fort Bragg and result in
further operational and training restrictions. This recommendation has no impact on air quality;
dredging; land use constraints or sensitive resource areas; or marine mammals, resources, or
sanctuaries. This recommendation will require spending approximately $1.0M for
environmental compliance costs. These costs were included in the payback calculation. This
recommendation does not otherwise impact the costs of environmental restoration, waste
management, and environmental compliance activities. The aggregate environmental impact of
all recommended BRAC actions affecting the installations in this recommendation has been
reviewed. There are no known environmental impediments to implementation of this
recommendation.
