Greetings John,
My name is Thad McDonald and I am the Naval Facilities Engineering
Command (NAVFAC) project manager for the Navy's Outlying Landing Field
(OLF) project. As you may be aware, the U.S. Navy is in the process of
completing an Environmental Impact Statement'(EIS) for the purpose of
constructing and operating an Outlying Landing Field (OLF) to support
Field Carrier Landing Practice operations for carrier-based fixed-wing
aircraft squadrons stationed at and transient to NAS Oceana and Naval
Station Norfolk Chambers Field, Virginia. Information and updates on
the proposed project are available on the project website at:
http://www.OLFEIS.com
At this point in the project, we are in the process of meeting with
various State and Federal agencies to solicit comments on issues to be
considered in the EIS, discuss field methodologies for the various
survey efforts, and present project updates. Linda Pearsall with NC
DENR indicated that you would be a good person to touch base with,
specifically in regards for your input on NC wetland matters.
I would like to invite you to attend our next interagency meeting
tentatively scheduled for 7 Oct 2008. At this time we are still working
on the meeting location which will be determined in the near future. I
believe it may be in/around the Fort Lee area in Petersburg, VA but that
has not been confirmed. Please let me know if you will be able to
attend this and/or future meetings.
Also, Linda indicated that NC DENR was in the process of developing a
new wetland assessment methodology and that you would be the person to
speak with regarding what this entails. Do you have some literature
and/or a website that you could point me towards? Do you know of future
training opportunities that we could attend?
We greatly appreciate any input you can provide.
Best Regards,
Thad McDonald
