Organization of the Issues
Chapter 5 of the TSS Background Report is organized into two main sections : Minor Issues and Major Issues . Chapter 5 in this TSS Report also differentiates the issues by Minor and Major Issues . Minor Issues are compatibility issues that were identified during the TSS process but were determined through further analysis during the TSS to be adequately managed , or a solution was developed and / or implemented during the TSS project timeframe and they are no longer issues . The Minor Issues were isolated from the original set of compatibility issues as they were determined not to be as significant as the Major Issues . Thus , the Minor Issues did not warrant in‐depth analysis or any strategies to address them . The Major Issues section provides more in‐depth analysis of the more significant issues for the TSS .
More information on each issue can be found in Chapter 5 Compatibility Assessment in the Background Report , in which each of the 24 compatibility factors are identified with a section number and the name of the factor , e . g ., 5.2 Air Quality , 5.2 Anti‐Terrorism / Force Protection , etc . The factor ’ s definition , technical background ( if applicable ), and key terms information will also be found in each numbered subsection . For factors that did not have any compatibility issues identified , only the factor definition is presented .
Minor Issues
• Communicating between Travis AFB and communities . Travis AFB personnel , such as fire fighters , who often communicate with local communities , have to use different frequencies because the communities cannot use DOD frequencies .
• Economic impacts from alternative energy restrictions . The Travis AFB Land Use Compatibility Plan restrictions on alternative energy may impact future business opportunities , including the siting of energy testing facilities .
• Land mobile radio interferes with Part 1 by Travis AFB operations may interfere w local communities , such as garage door o
• Impacts to VORTAC radio navigation be has caused operational impacts to the VO beacon at Skaggs Island that have caused periods of time .
• Impacts from the Airport Land Use Com required to send every rezoning applicati commission hearing and approval .
• Hazardous materials in pipelines . Hazar fuel , travel through pipelines in the comm supplies to Travis AFB . Concerns over tra ensure adequate standoff distances .
• Clear Zone . Not all of the Clear Zone for land .
• Wind turbines . Some existing wind turb planned to be switched out for taller mod
• Flooding of Union Creek onto Travis AFB side of the airfield sometimes floods due the creek leaves Travis AFB .
• Pollution plumes . There are historic plu Travis AFB .
