Sunshine Act Meetings, 16309-16310 [05-6353]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 60 / Wednesday, March 30, 2005 / Notices testing, and fabrication of a system for use in space. Some early feasibility and conceptual studies identified a potential need for new facilities such as a landbased prototype reactor to test the reactor design before actual use, and launch site support facilities for final assembly and testing of the spacecraft before launch. Substantial modifications to existing facilities or their operations, or building new facilities for reactor development or launch site support capabilities, would not be done before considering the environmental impacts including preparation of the appropriate site-specific NEPA documentation. Mission-specific uses of a fission reactor would also be subject to separate NEPA documentation. Alternatives to be considered in this PEIS may include but would not necessarily be limited to: —Alternative power generation technologies, such as advanced batteries and solar power. —The No Action Alternative, where NASA would not pursue development of a spacecraft nuclear fission reactor. Written public input and comments on environmental impacts and concerns associated with the development of a spacecraft nuclear fission reactor are requested. NASA is interested in public input on which environmental issues should be focused upon in the PEIS and what alternative power generation technologies should be considered. NASA also plans on holding two public scoping meetings to provide information on the Prometheus PEIS and to solicit public comments. These meetings are: —April 19, 2005, from 1 p.m.–4 p.m. and 6 p.m.–9 p.m. at the Florida Solar Energy Center; H. George Carrison Auditorium; 1679 Clearlake Road; Cocoa, Florida 32922; —April 26, 2005, from 1 p.m.–4 p.m. at the Hyatt Regency Washington on Capitol Hill; 400 New Jersey Avenue, NW., Washington DC 20001. Persons interested in attending these meetings may request meeting information via electronic mail at nasaprometheus-peis@nasa.gov, by telephone at 866–833–2061, or by visiting the Prometheus PEIS Web site at: https://exploration.nasa.gov/nasaprometheus-peis.html.
