FAA Releases FONSI and ROD for Wallops Flight Facility Expansion

Summary

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has made available a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) and Record of Decision (ROD) for the expansion of the Wallops Flight Facility Launch Range, following an Environmental Assessment (EA) conducted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in 2009. The expansion, which would involve the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport (MARS) at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center Wallops Flight Facility, requires Federal actions that necessitate cooperation between NASA and the FAA.
