Travis AFB Sustainability Study Report Final Background Report | Page 123
The Major Issues section provides more in‐depth analysis of the more
significant issues for the TSS. Each of the 24 compatibility factors are
identified with a section number and the name of the factor, e.g.,
5.2 Air Quality, 5.3 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.
to determine the timeframe for initiating strategies by the primary and
partner agencies.
When reviewing the assessment information in this chapter, it is important
to note the following:
This chapter provides a technical background on the factors and
issues discussed based on available information. The intent is to
provide an adequate context for awareness, education, and
development of TSS recommendations. It is not designed or intended
to be utilized as an exhaustive technical evaluation of existing or
future conditions within the Study Area.
Of the 24 compatibility factors considered, the following nine were
determined to have no major issues relative to this TSS:
Air Quality
Cultural Resources
Dust / Smoke / Steam
Frequency Spectrum Capacity
Legislative Initiatives
Marine Environments
Public Trespassing
Scarce Natural Resources
Vibration
Organization of the Issues
Chapter 5 is organized into two main sections: Minor Issues 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 that require
further action. 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.
