• Description:
  This environmental assessment (EA) evaluates the potential environmental impacts associated with the United States (U.S.) Department of the Navy's ( Navy's) proposed action to remove and replace fender piles at Naval Base (NAVBASE) Kitsap Bremerton. The piles to be replaced occur along the perimeter of Pier 6. The Proposed Action is planned to begin in 2013 and will take approximately three years to complete. The Proposed Action would remove approximately 380 creosote treated timber piles and 20 steel piles, and replace them with approximately 330 prestressed concrete piles. As part of the Navy's mission, maintaining facilities and readiness is a priority. Since the action is to replace existing piles, the only alternative would be to not replace the piles; therefore, no practical or feasible action alternatives were identified. This EA will analyze the Proposed Action and the No Action alternative. The analysis addresses potential direct and indirect impacts on sediments, water quality, threatened and endangered species, essential fish habitat, marine mammals, cultural resources, American Indian traditional resources and cumulative impacts.
