ACTION: Notice of Modified Record of

AGENCY:
Pursuant to the National
Environmental Policy Act, as amended,
(NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), the
Council on Environmental Quality
Regulations for Implementing the
Procedural Provisions of NEPA (40 CFR
parts 1500–1508), and NASA’s NEPA
policy and procedures (14 CFR part
1216, subpart 1216.3), NASA prepared
and issued the Final EIS for the
proposed MSL Mission. A ROD was
issued on December 27, 2006 indicating
NASA’s decision to prepare and launch
the MSL Mission in 2009. A copy of the
Final EIS and ROD are available at the

was unable to finish preparation of the
MSL Mission in time for the 2009
launch opportunity, and NASA Science
Mission Directorate (SMD) Associate
Administrator issued a modified ROD
indicating NASA’s decision to complete
preparation and launch the MSL
mission in 2011. The full text of the
modified ROD is provided below.
DATES: Effective Date: January 24, 2011.

MSL Mission is available on the MSL

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Modified Record of Decision: NASA
MSL Mission
This modified Record of Decision
(ROD) documents NASA’s consideration
of possible changes in the potential
environmental impacts of the Mars
Science Laboratory (MSL) mission with
the launch postponed from the original
2009 launch opportunity to the next
available launch opportunity in 2011.
This document modifies the ROD
issued for the MSL mission on
December 27, 2006. In 2006, NASA
decided to complete preparations for
launch of the MSL mission during a
September to November 2009 launch
period and to operate the mission using
a Multi-Mission Radioisotope
Thermoelectric Generator (MMRTG) as
the primary power source for the rover.
However, in December 2008, NASA
made a determination that the MSL
rover could not be ready in time for the
original 2009 launch window because of
unexpected spacecraft technical and
testing challenges. Launch opportunities
for Mars missions occur approximately
every 26 months; consequently, the next
launch opportunity is November to
December 2011. NASA is continuing
preparations for launch of the MSL
mission during this next launch
opportunity.
In considering the launch of the MSL
mission during late 2011, NASA
identified factors that might affect the
environmental impact analysis
presented in the existing Final
Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS)
for the MSL mission. The Department of
Energy (DOE) helped NASA reassess
potential radiological impacts by
evaluating the nuclear risk described in
the 2006 FEIS against up to date
