Department of the Air Force March 2005 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, as amended (42 United States Code 4321, et seq.), the Council on Environmental Quality Regulations for implementing the procedural provisions of NEPA (40 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) parts 1500- 1508), and Air Force's Environmental Impact Analysis Process as implemented by 32 CFR part 989, the United States Air Force (Air Force) is issuing this notice to advise the public of the availability of the signed ROD documenting the decision of the Air Force to terminate the Air Force Mission at Johnston Atoll Airfield. The ROD is based upon the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS), Termination of the Air Force Mission at Johnston Atoll Airfield (made available in the Federal Register: Volume 69, Number 108, Page 31613-31614). The Air Force decision was made after considering the potential environmental consequences of the Proposed Action and No-Action alternative as analyzed in the FEIS, and inputs from regulatory agencies and the public.

Pursuant to Pub. L. 92-463, notice is hereby given of the forthcoming meeting of the Air Force Scientific Advisory Board. The purpose for this meeting is to provide SAB Members with operational appreciation of USAF activities and to allow discussion time for the five approved fiscal year 2005 studies. The studies are: ``Automatic Target Recognition'', ``Domain Integrations'', ``System of Systems Engineering'', ``Air Force Operations in Urban Environments'', and ``Near Space''. Because classified and contractor-proprietary information will be discussed, this meeting will be closed to the public.
