This Record of Decision (ROD) documents the Air Force's decisions regarding the disposal of real property at K.I. Sawyer Air Force Base (AFB), Michigan. It was developed in accordance with Council on Environmental Quality Regulation 40 CFR 1502. The decisions included in this ROD have been made in consideration of the information contalned in 'K. I. Sawyer AFB - Final Environmental Impact Statement' (FEIS) for the disposal and reuse of K.I. Sawyer AFB. The FEIS was filed with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) and made available to the public on February 15, 1996. It is recognized that another public body may assume the responsibilities of the present K.I. Sawyer Base Conversion Authority, acting by and through the Jobs Commission of the State of Michigan (KISBCA/MJC). In such event, all references to the KISBCA/MJC will then apply to the appropriate public body recognized by the Secretary of Defense, Office of Economic Adjustment, as the Local- Redevelopment Authority. It is also recognized that an authorized Airport Authority may apply for the alrfield, related airfield facilities, and non-aviation revenue-generating facilities either in conjunction with, or in lieu of, the KISBCA/MJC. If this happens, all references to the KISBCA/MJC will then apply to the appropriate Airport Authority recognized by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
Pursuant to the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act, K.I. Sawyer AFB was closed in September 1995. This Environmental Impact Statement has been prepared in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act to analyze the potential environmental consequences of the disposal and reasonable alternatives for reuse of the base. The document includes analyses of community setting, land use and aesthetics, transportation, utilities, hazardous materials and hazardous waste management, geology and soils, water resources, air quality, noise, biological resources, and cultural resources. Four reuse alternatives were examined: a Proposed Action that features air cargo, regional aircraft maintenance, regional passenger, and general aviation uses of the runway with an industrial component being developed in the military family housing area; an International Wayport Alternative that consists of international passenger, air cargo, and aircraft maintenance uses, as well as regional passenger and general aviation uses, and a large residential area; a Commercial Aviation Alternative that proposes a regional commercial airport with an Upper Peninsula vocational/educational training facility; and a Recreation Alternative that would retain more than 80 percent of the base for public facilities recreation land uses. All alternatives include industrial, institutional, commercial, and residential uses. A No-Action Alternative, which would entail no reuse of the base property, was also evaluated.

Potential environmental impacts are increased aircraft and traffic-related noise levels, traffic, and emissions of air pollutants over closure baseline conditions. Roadway improvements may be needed to prevent unacceptable traffic congestion. (MM).
