Given the potential for their undertaking actions related to NASA’s actions, each of these agencies has been involved closely in NASA’s NEPA process. Alternatives Public Meeting amozie on DSK3GDR082PROD with NOTICES Cheryl E. Parker, Federal Register Liaison. [FR Doc. 2018–09469 Filed 5–3–18; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 7510–13–P The PEIS evaluates the environmental consequences of a range of reasonable alternatives that meet NASA’s need to ensure continued growth at WFF while also preserving the ability to safely conduct its historical baseline of services. The planning horizon for actions in the PEIS is 20 years. Currently under consideration are the Proposed Action and a No Action alternative. The Proposed Action would support a number of facility projects ranging from new construction, demolition, and renovation; the replacement of the Wallops causeway bridge; maintenance dredging between the boat docks at the Main Base and Wallops Island; development of a deepwater port and operations area on North Wallops Island; construction and operation of an additional medium to heavy class launch site; the introduction of new NASA and DoD programs at WFF; the expansion of the launch vehicle services with liquid-fueled intermediate class and solid fueled heavy class launch vehicles; and the consideration of commercial human spaceflight missions and the return of launch vehicles to the launch site. Under the No Action Alternative, WFF and its partners would continue the existing operations and programs previously discussed in the 2005 SiteWide EA and the subsequent NEPA documents identified under Related Environmental Documents. NASA and its Cooperating Agencies will hold a public meeting to discuss WFF’s proposed actions and to solicit comments on the Draft PEIS. The public meeting will be held at the WFF Visitor Center on May 23, 2018, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. NASA anticipates that the public will be most interested in the potential environmental impacts of each alternative on protected and specialstatus species, wetlands, noise, and socioeconomics. In developing its Final PEIS, NASA will consider all comments received; comments received and responses to comments will be included in the Final PEIS. In conclusion, written public input on environmental issues and concerns associated with the VerDate Sep<11>2014 improvement of infrastructure and services at WFF is hereby requested. 18:16 May 03, 2018 Jkt 244001 NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION Proposal Review Panel for Computing and Communication Foundations; Notice of Meeting In accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (Pub., L. 92– 463, as amended), the National Science Foundation (NSF) announces the following meeting: Name and Committee Code: Proposal Review Panel for Computing and Communication Foundations—Science and Technology Centers—Integrative Partnerships Site Visit (#1192) Date and Time: May 21, 2018; 7:00 p.m.–8:30 p.m.; May 22, 2018; 8:00 a.m.–8:00 p.m.; May 23, 2018; 8:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m. Place: McGovern Institute for Brain Research, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), 43 Vassar St., Cambridge, MA 02139.
