WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE INSTALLATION MANAGEMENT DIVISION ACCEPTING PUBLIC COMMENTS ON THE DRAFT PROGRAMMATIC AGREEMENT REGARDING DISPOSITION OF HISTORIC HOUSING AT WRIGHT-PATTERSON AIR FORCE BASE, OHIO From July 15 through August 15, 2019, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB) officials will accept comments on the draft Programmatic Agreement (PA) and the draft Mitigation Treatment Plan (MTP) for the disposition of Brick Quarters historic housing units in Area A of WPAFB. Additionally a Cost Benefit Analysis of all alternatives identified in the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), and an analysis of Section 111 Leasing alternatives feasibility will be available for comment. These documents were prepared in accordance with the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). The purpose of the proposed action in the EIS is to provide the WPAFB Key & Essential leaders and their families with access to housing, meeting Air Force guidelines while supporting the base's housing requirements and the NHPA. To meet its housing needs, the Air Force is evaluating options to build new or renovate, privatize, lease, or demolish its current government-owned housing units. The Air Force is looking for a solution that meets WPAFB housing requirements, historic preservation obligations, and provides housing in a cost-neutral manner to the Air Force.
