medium-lift launches, including the
construction of a launch pad and
associated facilities. As part of the
Proposed Action addressed in the EA,
AAC would make improvements to the
KLC to add both solid and liquidpropellant, medium-lift launch
capability, and to operate the KLC in the
future as a small-lift and medium-lift
launch complex. Proposed construction
at KLC includes six primary
modifications: Construction of Launch
Pad 3 (LP3), a vehicle processing
facility, rocket staging facility, liquid
fuel facility, mission control center and
improvements to Pasagshak Point Road.
Proposed launch operations would
include up to six orbital small-lift
launches and three medium-lift
launches per year from the existing
launch pads and from the proposed LP3;
however, to be conservative in the
analysis of potential environmental
impacts, the EA assumes a maximum of
nine medium-lift launches per year.
The EA addresses the potential
environmental impacts of implementing
the Proposed Action and the No Action
Alternative. Under the No Action
Alternative, the FAA would not modify
AAC’s Launch Site Operator License to
include medium-lift launch capability
and AAC would not proceed with the
construction of medium-lift launch
support infrastructure at KLC. Existing
launch activities for up to nine orbital
small-lift class launches per year from
the existing launch pads would
continue.
The impact categories considered in
the EA include air quality; compatible
land use; Department of Transportation
Act: Section 4(f); fish, wildlife, and
plants; hazardous materials, pollution
prevention, and solid waste; historical,
architectural, archaeological, and
cultural resources; light emissions and
visual impacts; natural resources and
energy supply; noise; socioeconomic,
environmental justice, and children’s
environmental health and safety risk;
water quality; and wetlands. The EA
also considers potential cumulative
environmental impacts.
The FAA has posted the Final EA and
FONSI/ROD on the FAA Office of
Commercial Space Transportation Web
site: https://www.faa.gov/about/office_

The FAA published a Notice of
Availability (NOA) of the Draft EA in
the Federal Register on September 15,
2014. An electronic version was also
made available on the FAA Web site. In
addition, the FAA printed and mailed a
copy of the Draft EA to local libraries.

meeting on October 7, 2014. The public
comment period for the Draft EA ended
on November 1, 2014. After taking into
consideration the nature of public
comments received on the Draft EA, the
FAA issued a Second Draft EA and
provided the public with an opportunity
to review and comment on updates and
clarification information that had since
been added to the EA in response to
public comments. The FAA published a
NOA of the Second Draft EA in the
Federal Register on December 7, 2015.
Interested parties were invited to submit
comments on the Second Draft EA by
January 11, 2016. Public comments on
the Second Draft EA resulted in minor
changes to the EA.
Issued in Washington, DC, on April 11,
2016.

[Docket No. NHTSA–2016–0036]
Guidelines for the Safe Deployment
and Operation of Automated Vehicle
Safety Technologies
National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA),
Department of Transportation (DOT).
ACTION: Announcement of public
meeting.
AGENCY:
NHTSA is announcing a
second public meeting to seek input on
planned guidelines for the safe
deployment and operation of automated
vehicles. NHTSA held its first public
meeting on this topic on April 8, 2016,
in Washington, DC. The intent of the
operational guidelines is to encourage
innovative and safe deployment of
automated vehicle technologies. At this
meeting, NHTSA is seeking public input
on those aspects of automated vehicle
(AV) systems that would benefit from
operational guidelines. For example, of
high importance to the Agency is
information on the roadway scenarios
and operational environments highly
automated vehicles will need to address
and the associated design and
evaluation processes and methods
needed to ensure that AV systems can
detect and appropriately react to these
scenarios such that a high level of safety
is assured when these systems are
deployed on US roadways.
Also of interest to the Agency is input
on aspects of automated vehicle
technology that may not be suitable or
ready for guidelines. For these areas,
information would be useful on
alternative approaches to assure safety.
DATES: NHTSA will hold the public
meeting on April 27, 2016, in Stanford,
CA. The meeting will start at 9:00 a.m.
and continue until 4:00 p.m., local time.
Check-in will begin at 8 a.m.
Location: The meeting will be held at
the CARS Facility at Stanford
University, 473 Oak Rd, Stanford, CA
94305. This facility is accessible to
individuals with disabilities. The
meeting will also be webcast live, and
a link to the actual webcast will be
available through https://www.nhtsa.gov/
