growth of the U.S. space industry, while
implementing one of the alternatives
could limit U.S. commercial launch and

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
Federal Aviation Administration
I have considered potential
environmental impacts as defined in the
PEIS, applicable regulatory
requirements, public comments, and
FAA’s responsibilities under 49 U.S.C.,
Subtitle IX, Chapter 701, Commercial
Space Launch Activities to promote,
encourage, and facilitate the growth of
the U.S. commercial space
transportation industry in arriving at my
decision.
Alternatives 1, 2, 3, and the no action
alternative would result in restrictive
licensing that would impede the FAA’s
ability to assist the commercial space
transportation industry in meeting
projected demand for services and
expansion into new markets. The
preferred alternative would allow the
greatest development and growth of the
U.S. commercial space launch industry.
In addition, although implementation of
the preferred alternative would result in
slightly greater environmental impacts
than the overall impacts associated with
the alternatives and no action
alternative, the impacts are still
expected to be less than significant. For
the reasons summarized earlier in this
Record of Decision and supported by
detailed discussion in the PEIS, the
FAA has selected the preferred
alternative.
I have carefully considered the FAA’s
goals and objectives in relation to the
programmatic licensing actions
discussed in the PEIS, including the
purpose and need to be served, the
alternative means of achieving them, the
environmental impacts of these
alternatives at a broad, programmatic
level, and the mitigation measures
available to preserve and enhance the
environment as needed on a sitespecific basis. I have determined that all
practicable means to avoid or minimize
environmental harm from the
alternatives selected have been adopted.
Based upon the record of this proposed
Federal action, and under the authority
delegated to me by the Administrator of
the FAA, I find that the action in this
Record of Decision is reasonably
supported.
