Public agencies need to find avenues for collaboration that benefit both parties, &#8230; .<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div>\n<p>The concern over commercial space flight could arise out of two points.\u00a0 As it was decades ago, commercial space flight is still new, and the technologies range from pointy-end-up expendable launch vehicles to rockets launched from carrier aircraft to reentry capsules.\u00a0 This makes more difficult to implement the typical approach of standardizing a regulatory response. The second is the lack of data.\u00a0 Although the space sector has a good understanding of the hazards, the flight rate for launch and reentry offers nothing close to the kind of data available to DOT for aviation and automobiles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>International<\/strong>: On the international front we see that &#8220;The DOT will promote exports by providing technical assistance to encourage international adoption of U.S. transportation standards and regulations.&#8221;\u00a0 The FAA&#8217;s Office of Commercial Space Transportation has been engaged in similar efforts for years, and it&#8217;s good to see official support for that endeavor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Regulation<\/strong>:\u00a0 On the regulatory front, the plan states that DOT will implement the President&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/groundbasedspacematters.com\/index.php\/2017\/02\/03\/thoughts-on-current-events-in-congress-and-the-administration-the-cra-and-an-e-o\/\"><strong>executive orders<\/strong><\/a> on regulatory reform. Additionally, &#8220;DOT will also identify opportunities to facilitate, improve, and expedite the exemption and special permit processes to support deployment of innovative technologies and practices.&#8221;\u00a0 This could bode well for aircraft operators who wish to receive exemptions from aviation regulations in order to participate in commercial space activities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Environmental reviews<\/strong>.\u00a0 Although the following sets out a plan to improve the environmental review process for infrastructure grants, the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) also applies to other major federal actions.\u00a0 Major federal actions include the licensing of launches, reentries, and the operation of launch and reentry sites.\u00a0 The proposed streamlining could aid commercial space environmental reviews:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The environmental review and permitting process in the United States is fragmented, inefficient, and unpredictable. Existing statutes have important and laudable objectives, but the lack of cohesiveness in their execution make the delivery of infrastructure projects more costly, unpredictable, and time-consuming, all while adding little environmental protection. The median time to complete an environmental impact statement (EIS) is approximately four years or more. The full environmental review process on complex projects can exceed 10 years. More efficient and effective Federal infrastructure decisions can transform our economy, so the Federal Government, as a whole, must change the way it processes environmental reviews and authorization decisions. DOT will be a leader in implementing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/the-press-office\/2017\/08\/15\/presidential-executive-order-establishing-discipline-and-accountability\"><strong>Executive Order 13807<\/strong><\/a> and other White House directives on speeding the permitting process, meeting a two-year deadline for Federal infrastructure projects.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<p>Operators might consider filing comments to highlight the need for streamlining the NEPA review in the licensing context, too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Comments due<\/strong>:\u00a0 November 13, 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Federal Register notice, the Department of Transportation released for public comment a draft of its Strategic Plan for FY&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[114,113,84],"class_list":["post-868","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-environmental","tag-international","tag-regulation"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Commercial Space in Draft DOT Strategic Plan.
