Additional Information on Spaceport from TC&B

Posted by Neal on behalf of Torry Tvedt:

In response to my request to the GCRSDC, Debbie Pennington (staff member) copied the "Phase II Report" and "Environmental Reconnaissance" report prepared by Turner Collie & Braden for the GCRSDC. I picked these reports up this morning and have not yet had time to read them. Unfortunately, both are Xerox copies so distribution will not be as simple as it was for the Phase I Report.

In addition, Debbie told me that the GCRSDC has requested that the FAA hold public hearings on the spaceport ASAP, but no date has yet been set. She promised to let me know as soon as a date is set. I think that we also need to keep in touch with the FAA.

Once I have read these reports, I'll summarize them and find a way to make the material available to any one who wants to read it.
