Property Highlights

Former "Alert Building" used for rapid aircraft response by the U.S. Air Force; the Site was formerly part of the Dow Air Force Base. The City plans to demolish the building and re-construct an aeronautics service building for business development.

Former Use: The Site was historically used by the U.S. Air Force as a rapid response building for aircraft (e.g. B-52s, etc.). The City was granted the property in approximately 1968 when the Dow Air Force base was closed as part of the formation of the Bangor International Airport. The Site building has been abandoned and is in severe disrepair; the City has never used the building for any purpose. In 1968 ASTM standards for Phase I ESAs were not established. However, the City reviewed information for the Site and surrounding airport property provided by the U.S. Government. More recently the U.S. Government has continued investigation and remediation efforts at the Bangor International Airport through the Formerly Underutilized Defense Site (FUDS) program being implemented through the Army Corp of Engineers, but the work did not include the Site. The City recently met with the FUDS program officers, whom indicated that no further investigation would take place on the Site in the near future and instructed the City to seek using other funding for additional inquiry. The Site is currently part of the larger airport parcel; however, will be subdivided to allow for remediation and redevelopment for aeronautics related business development.
