Purpose The purpose of this project is to develop an athletic complex that would contain a softball quadruplex and approximately eighteen (18) soccer fields. This project would serve the growing recreational needs of the citizens of Lubbock and surrounding communities with a facility which would be able to support most of the area teams. It would also fill the need for an area in which to have tournaments, which the city does not currently have. B. Identification and Description The project area covers 98.24 acres, located in Section 12, Block A, within the Lubbock City limits and in Lubbock County. This area is located in North Lubbock, in an area that is primarily agricultural and industrial. The land is already park property that is currently undeveloped, and has a ground cover of wheat. C. Con fonn i ty with Compliance with Local and Regional Plans and Programs, and Federal and State Environmental Policies and Standards. This project conforms with all programs, policies, and standards. Description of the Environment A. Existing Social and Environmental Setting 1. Surface and Subsurface Geology The oldest rock unit in the Lubbock area is the Pliocene Ogallala formation. This rock unit is over 250 feet thick and is made up of alluvial deposits consisting of gravel, sand, silt, and clay particles, all capped by caliche. The Ogallala is the principal water -bearing unit in the high plains of northwest Texas. The unit outcrops in the valley walls and over a part of the flood plain in Yellowho use and Black Water Draws, where they pass through the city. The unit does not out -crop in the project area. 2. Paleontology There is a known fossil site in the area of the project, which is the Lubbock Lake Site, designated as a National Historic Landmark. This site is approximately one -quarter (4) mile from the project area. This fossil site is located in a dried up lake -bed in the canyon, whereas the project site is on a plateau above and adjacent to the fossil site. In the event of the discovery of an area of paleontological significance, construction would be halted and the site appraised by experts. 3. Soil Characteristics The surface soil of the project is erosion deposited either by wind or water. The wind deposited soil is a fine loam that ranges up to 80" deep. Suitability for dwellings, small commercial build- ings, and local streets is moderate. The playa lakes contain sed- iment from higher surrounding areas. The lake basins contain some water throughout the year, but are filled only after heavy local rains. The soil type in these lake areas is very high in organic matter. 4. Ecologically Sensitive Areas The project area is an undeveloped park site. It has a temporary groundco ver of winter wheat to prevent soil erosion. The State Board of Water Engineers ahs determined that some aquifer recharge occurs from the playa lakes a fter heavy rains. 5. Air Quality The quality of air in the Lubbock area is good in comparison with established ambient air standards. The only pollutant that exceeds these standards is the particulate concentration. This is unusually high because of the type of soil, wind speed, and large areas of land in this area under cultivation. 6. Biological Environment The project area is an undeveloped park site. It has an introduced plant cover of winter wheat to prevent soil erosion. The Lubbock county fauna is small, consisting mostly of forms tolerant to drought and aridity. Bird fauna is particularly rich with water -loving species. There are no birds, mammals, amphibians, or reptiles from this area that are presently on the endangered species list. Social Setting The type of development existing in the area of the project (North Lubbock) is industrial, commercial, and agricultural. There are 3243 people in the area, with 35% single-family homes. The population is composed of 64% white, 2% black, and 34% Mexican -American. 22% of the population is under 18 years of age. There are no residences, or business's located on the project site. 8. Economic Setting The average income per family in the area is $6,697 per year. The average cost per residence is $8,500. 3. Environmental Impact of the Proposed Action A. Environmental Assessment and Evaluation 1. Subsurface Setting No detrimental impact. Established g ro undcover will aid moisture retention. Small areas of paving (road and parking lot) will not impede water run-off. 2. Surface Setting Established g roundcover will prevent wind and water erosion. The sports areas will be high maintenance areas which will require frequent mowing and, watering. This maintenance should eliminate weer' o-o.-? ems and pr�� v i de an aesthet-,: L area. c c; 3. Climate and Atmosphere This project will have some adverse effects on air quality during installation. Earth -moving equipment will increase dust and noise levels in the areas during construction . Upon completion of the project, dust levels should be reduced due to established ground - cover. Noise levels may be increased due to the nature of the sports activities, such as crowds cheering, and autanobile traffic. Increased light levels will occur due to flood lighting of the activity areas during night games and all night tournaments. 4. Biological Environment The current winter wheat ground cover will be replaced by Bermuda grass turf, thus removing a natural habitat for field -mice, snakes, and jack -rabbits. These animals will probably relocate in the surrounding agricultural fields. 5. Impact on Community Facilities Upon completion of the project, other city facilities will cease to be over -crowded and over -worked. The Parks and Recreation Dept. currently has to limit the n unber of teams due to the lack of facilities. With the project's completion however, increased participation by the general populus is expected due to expanded and improved facilities. B. Analysis and Evaluation of Aggragate Impacts The overall effect of this project would improve the existing site considerably. The project would stabilize surface soils, reduce dust levels in the area, provide an aesthetic and functional recreation area. The recreational area would provide increased facilities for the sports of softball and soccer, and alleviate crowded conditions which now exist at current facilities. It would also create an area where tournaments could be held, which the city does not now have. 4. Mitigation Measures Included in the Proposed Action Every effort will be made by employees during construction to keep en- vironmental impacts at a minimum. Environmental effects of construction will be brief in duration, and the environment of the general area should soon return to normal with the exception of increased light levels during night games, and possible increased noise levels. In consideration of the close proximity of the Lubbock Lake Site, workers will be alerted to look for any items of historic or archeological sign- ificance in the project area. Any finds will prompt the halting of any further construction until the site has been evaluated by experts. The existing g roundcover will be replaced by a turf groundcover which is more suited to the purposes for which the area is intended. The existing overhead powerl i nes will be rerouted overhead around the perimeter of the site. 5. Unavoidable Adverse Effects to the Environment Certain adverse effects to the environment will occur during construction. There will be increased dust levels during earth -moving construction. There will be increased noise levels while heavy equipment is being used but not more than current noise levels of agricultural equipment now being employed. After completion, there may also be some adverse effects on the environment. There will be increased light levels during night games. There will be increased noise levels from crowds and automobiles during games. 6. Relationship Between Local Short -Term Uses and Long -Term Productivity The land in the area of the project is currently unproductive. The Parks department has no facilities there at this time. Any development would render the land productive, whereas it is currently unused. The short- term construction period disadvantages would be far out -weighed by the long-term end product. 7. Irreversible and Irretrievable Commitments of Resources Which Would Be Involved In Proposed Action, Should It Be Implemented There would be no further irreversible commitments associated with the athletic complex development, as the land is within park property, which has been been previously committed to unproductive agricultural land for many years. 8. Alternatives to Proposed Action The only alternative to the proposed athletic complex is no development. The land would remain in unproductive agricultural state, and the city would not have expanded facilities for soccer and softball. Existing facilities would remain crowded, and teams would remain limited. Lubbock would probably not be included on the tournament curcuit due to unsuitable current facilities which make it hard to accomodate large numbers of players and spectators. The current wheat gro undcover leaves the land barren for 3-4 months out of the year, which adds to the problem of soil erosion. OMB NO 60-RO184 INSTRUCTION PART II — SECTION B 11.

Objectives and Needs The primary objective of construction of the softball quadruplex and soccer fields in a centralized location in the City of Lubbock is to provide the citizens of the community with a needed supplement to ex- isting recreational facilities. At present, the city has seven (7) softball fields located in various city parks. There are 550 teams in the city that play an average of five (5) games per day per field. This makes for very crowded conditions, plus the fact that the games are often played quite late at night. These parks are located in residential areas, so local residents are subjected to the noise, traffic, and bright lights that.are part of softball games. At present, the city has two (2) designated soccer fields that are in reality unfit to play on due to the ground and turf conditions. There are approximately 6000 soccer players in the city of Lubbock, playing eight (8) games per day per field. These games are being played in local parks in residential areas. The same problems noted above for area residents can be reiterated here. 2. Results or Benefits Expected The major result expected to be derived from this project will be the construction of a softball quadruplex, pressbox/concession/restroom facility, and approximately eighteen (18) soccer fields. The construction of this athletic complex in a non-residential area would eliminate many of the problems local residents suffer from traffic, noise, night lights, and litter. It would also centrally locate two high -participation sports and provide a facility that would support tournaments. Preparation of fields, maintenance, and convenience would all be easier, thereby cutting maintenance costs. Lubbock could be promoted on a national, regional and state-wide basis for tournaments, which would be a boost to the local economy and reputation. The closest facility that compares with this project is over 100 miles away. With this fact in mind, a complex of this nature would be quite an asset to Lubbock in many ways. 3. Approach This project involves the first phase of a two-phase, long-range master plan. The project includes site preparation, development of a road, and a parking lot. In addition, amenities for softball and soccer are as follows: A. Softball 1. fencing 2. irrigation 3. turf, plants, infield material 4. bleachers 5. sidewalks 6. pressbox/concession/restrooms facility 7. drinking fountains 8. lighting 9. scoreboard 10. P.A. system 11. bases B. Soccer 1. irrigation 2. turf, plants, field marking 3. bleachers 4. lighting 5. goals The project is located adjacent to Loop 289, in north Lubbock, in Lubbock County. Two unusual features of this project are 1) it is the only complex of its size within a 100 mile area of the city of Lubbock, and 2) the softball fields will be used as soccer fields during the winter months. 4. Geographic Location The Athletic Complex will be constructed within park property. It covers 98.24 acres in Section 12, Block A, City of Lubbock, Lubbock County. This area is located in north Lubbock, and is bound on the south by Loop 289. 5. Relationship Between Project and Other Federally Funded Work The Parks and Recreation Department of Lubbock is requesting matching funds for this project from Community Development Block Grants. 6. Agreement The City of Lubbock will take full charge of operation and maintenance of the proposed Athletic Complex. 7. Legislative District The City of Lubbock is located in the 19th Congressional District. It is located in the 28th State Senate District, and Representative District 77 of the Texas House of Representatives. 8. Relocation of Persons and Businesses No relocations will be required. 9. Overhead Utility Lines Existing overhead utility lines will be re-routed overhead around the perimeter of the project area. 10.
