The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is preparing an Environmental Impact Statement in regards to the SpaceX Starship-Super Heavy Project at Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex 39A in Florida.
That EIS is tied to issuing a commercial launch Vehicle Operator License for proposed SpaceX Starship operations at Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
Public scoping meetings
The SpaceX proposal includes constructing the necessary infrastructure to support up to 44 launches per year from Launch Complex-39A with Super Heavy booster and Starship vehicle recovery landings at LC-39A or on a droneship, or expending them in the ocean.
