Draft Environmental Assessment for 2018 Hurricane Recapitalization of Station Fort Macon
6/4/2020 — The USCG proposes to construct a new Multi-Mission Station Facility to replace multiple onshore buildings at Station Fort Macon that were damaged during Hurricane Florence in September 2018. In addition to constructing a new facility, the USCG proposes to demolish existing hurricane-damaged facilities and permanently homeport an 87-foot coastal patrol boat (CPB) at Station Fort Macon. The Proposed Action is needed to address a shortfall in available functional and operational onshore facility space, as well as insufficient vessel basing, while meeting USCG mission and resiliency requirements.
