The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) Kansas City Field Office proposes to demolish all structures, pavement, concrete, and utilities associated with Department of Energy operations at the NC-135 Site on Kirtland Air Force Base (KAFB), Albuquerque, New Mexico. The NC-135 Site consists of 18.32 fenced acres of developed land with over 53,000 square feet of single story, prefabricated buildings and trailers. The site includes a salvage yard, paved driveways and parking areas, three concrete aircraft pads, and landscaping. The buildings, which are currently vacant, are an assortment of administrative offices; material storage areas; various electronic fabrication, maintenance and testing labs; engineering and drafting areas; a facility maintenance building; and storage, testing and maintenance shop for mock firearms. The New Mexico State Historic Preservation Officer has concurred with NNSA’s finding that the proposed activities would have no adverse effect on historic properties or potential historic districts.
