Disposal and Reuse of the Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach Detachment Concord

Disposal and Reuse of the Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach Detachment Concord

Note: Record of Decision (ROD), for complete text of ROD: https://www.BRACPMO.Navy.mil The purpose of the proposed action is to dispose of surplus property at the former NWS Concord for subsequent reuse in a manner consistent with the policies adopted by the city of Concord during reuse planning that took place between 2008 and 2012. The need for the proposed action is to comply with the DBCRA and to provide the local community the opportunity for economic development and job creation. The Navy has considered in its FEIS two alternatives and a No Action Alternative. Under Alternative 1, approx 70% of the property would be maintained as conservation, parks, or recreational land uses, and 30% would be mixed use development. Two major conservation areas proposed include a 2,537 acre regional park, which would encompass the east side of the property along the ridgeline of Los Medanos Hills, and the Mt Diablo Creek corridor. Alternative 2 represents a smaller development footprint, increased residential development, and a higher intensity of use overall.
