Chapter 2 ⎯ Description of the Proposed Action and AlternativesSince the 2004 FEIS for transformation of the 2/25 th to an SBCT in Hawaii, several construction projectsdetailed in that FEIS have been completed or are currently in their final stages of completion.Although the impacts of the projects listed below were analyzed in the 2004 site specific FEIS, theyare connected with Army-wide transformation and are not Stryker specific requirements. These projectsare being used by USAG-HI to support all of its units and are not currently enjoined by court order.Projects proposed in 2004 that are complete or are in their final stages of completion have beenincluded as part of the No Action Alternative and as the baseline condition for this analysis. Theseprojects are:1) The Urban Assault Course (SBMR)2) Motor Pool and Maintenance Shops (SBMR)3) Tactical Vehicle Wash Facility (SBMR- East Range)4) Qualification Training Range 1 (SBMR)5) Multiple Deployment Facility (WAAF)6) Fixed Tactical Internet (SBMR and PTA)In addition, several training projects from the 2004 FEIS have been completed or are partially completethough their use is currently enjoined. Construction projects that have begun or are complete include:1) Qualification Range 2 (SRAA) – 80 percent construction complete2) Battle Area Complex (SBMR) – UXO site clearance mostly complete3) Installation Information Infrastructure (PTA) – partially complete4) Acquisition of the South Range Acquisition Area – complete5) Acquisition of the West PTA Acquisition Area. – completeIt should be noted that land acquisition actions involving the Keamuku Parcel (also referred to as theWPAA) and the SRAA are completed actions, and ownership of this land has been transferred to theArmy. A majority of military land uses on these parcels, however, is currently enjoined.Cantonment Infrastructure: To implement the Proposed Action, USAG-HI would not undertakeany cantonment facilities construction to provide for the requirements of the 2/25 th SBCT. Currently,SBMR has critical facilities available to support the stationing of the 2/25 th SBCT, including officespace, housing, and parking and maintenance space. Adequate schools, medical, recreational, shopping,and other quality of life facilities are available for Soldiers and Families of the 2/25 th in Hawaii.USAG-HI has 1,478 barracks spaces available to accommodate the housing requirements of singleenlisted Soldiers of the 2/25 th SBCT. The unit requirement is 1,677 barracks spaces, which leaves adeficit of 199 barracks that are needed to accommodate single enlisted Soldiers of the 2/25 th SBCT.The enlisted Soldiers that are unable to be accommodated on post would live off post in private housing.SBMR has adequate on- and off-post Family housing to accommodate the Soldier and Familyhousing requirements of the SBCT, though some Family housing units are in need of renovation.Military vehicle parking and maintenance facilities would exist to accommodate the increased combatvehicle parking and maintenance requirements of the 2/25 th . Office and administrative space for the2/25 th is available in the form of 31 company operations offices, 6 battalion operations headquarters,and a brigade headquarters that can accommodate the administrative operations of the 2/25 th . Figure2–3 shows the current locations of critical cantonment infrastructure required by the 2/25 th SBCT.February 2008 2–23 2/25th SBCT Final EIS
Chapter 2 ⎯ Description of the Proposed Action and AlternativesTraining Range and Training Support Infrastructure Construction: Projects that are required toimplement the Proposed Action are listed in Table 2–13. Training infrastructure support projects specificallyrequired to support the stationing of the 2/25 th SBCT are designated in a separate column ofTable 2–13. All projects are described in detail in Appendix D of the 2004 EIS, which is incorporatedby reference. A description of projects specifically required for stationing of the SBCT is provided inAppendix D of this document. SBCT-specific projects include two BAX projects planned for constructionat SBMR and PTA. The BAX is a critical range that consists of a range area that is approximately2,100 acres in size. The BAX range is critical for training and testing the SBCT’s capabilities,as was discussed previously in Chapter 2 and in the 2004 EIS. In addition, SBCT-specific facilitieswould include the construction of range maintenance and ammunition storage facilities atPTA, which would be needed to store targetry, equipment, and ammunition to support the 2/25 thSBCT and its use of the PTA BAX. Other Stryker-specific projects required to support this alternativeinclude land easements and road construction to widen and improve transportation routes to supportStryker vehicle access to USAG-HI training areas. Land easements and transportation constructionprojects to upgrade road and trail networks for Stryker vehicles include projects to upgrade the Helemanoand DMR trails from SBMR and land easements and construction projects to upgrade accessroutes from Kawaihae Harbor to PTA. These routes would be improved to allow military vehicles toaccess PTA while minimizing impacts to traffic on public roads. The original route identified in the2004 FEIS may be adjusted better to meet the needs of the public and the National Park Service(NPS). Detailed descriptions of all of these projects are provided in Appendix D.Figure 2–3Current Location of Existing Cantonment Infrastructure Needed to Supportthe 2/25 thFebruary 2008 2–24 2/25th SBCT Final EIS
