Download as PDF rmajette on PROD1PC67 with NOTICES 12168 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 50 / Thursday, March 15, 2007 / Notices with the proposed action and alternatives, including the no action alternative. The final PEIS evaluates two alternatives in addition to the no action alternative. The proposed action (alternative 1, DTRA’s Preferred Alternative) involves expanding existing test beds and creating new ones; expanding the range of test types including targets, simulants, delivery systems and explosives; implementing infrastructure improvements at the Permanent High Explosive Test Site Administrative Park; and testing special weapons and delivery systems. Alternative two contains all of the actions described in alternative one plus the use of chemical simulants and taggants/tracers that are considered to have higher toxicity levels than those considered under alternative one. The increased hazards of using these chemicals lead to identifying alternative one as the preferred alternative. DATES: Effective Dates: DTRA will take no final action on the proposed activities before April 15, 2007 or April 16, 2007. After April 15, 2007, DTRA will issue a Record of Decision (ROD).
