HANSCOM AIR FORCE BASE, Mass. -- The Department of the Air Force announces the availability of a draft Environmental Assessment and draft Finding of No Significant Impact for the alternatives proposed to repair the road and address shoreline erosion at the Fourth Cliff Recreation site located in Scituate, Massachusetts.
The draft EA, prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act, the Council on Environmental Quality regulations, and Department of the Air Force instructions implementing NEPA, evaluates potential impacts of the proposed action and alternatives on the environment including the “No Action Alternative.”
