a/ Storm drainage patterns indicating watershed boundaries and the
direction of flow.
b/ Storm water management areas.
c/ Flood plain.
d/ Wetland areas.
e/ Wildlife habitats (especially for threatened and endangered species).
f/ Buried tanks, Installation Restoration Program (IRP).
g/ Other hazards.
5/ Historic, Cultural and/or Archeological Resources. All structures or sites
that have been defined as historically, culturally or archeologically significant in the vicinity of
the area should be identified.
6/ Safety Hazards. All requirements and distances necessary for safety
such as fire codes, flood control, airfield and helipad clear zones, and explosives safety should
be identified.
7/ Physical Security. Coordinate the physical security requirements with the
Physical Security Plan of the installation. Existing or potential threat, high risk targets, and
current vulnerabilities to deter attack should be determined by consulting the Provost Marshal.
8/ Sources of Air, Noise and Light Pollution. Immediate or point sources of
pollution should be identified and their impact upon the site evaluated. Information may be
found in the environmental impact assessments for the installation. The need and potential for
achieving mitigation should be indicated. Non-point sources of pollution entering or leaving the
area development should also be evaluated.
9/ Visual Enclosure. The area's viewshed (area of visual enclosure) extends
beyond the area boundaries. The degree to which the surrounding environment contributes to
the area's sense of enclosure or openness, may create desirable or undesirable views from
the area. There may need to be buffers for the area's own visual condition.
(b) On-Site Conditions. All factors within the area boundary should be recorded.
Both existing conditions and future development should be considered. Each factor is
analyzed and recorded as part of the Natural Environment Analysis (figure 2-7), the Built
Environment Analysis (figure 2-8), or the Socio-cultural Environment Analysis (figure 2-9). The
following elements should be examined to evaluate potential impacts and connections within
the area development.
1/ Geology. Geological conditions above and below the ground surface
should be evaluated for the type of rock and its geologic formation.
