Water Quality • Beaches • Marshes • Wildlife • Fisheries & Outdoor Recreation Good Jobs & Economic Opportunity • Quality of Life • Coastal Character Fair, Responsive & Effective Government • Lasting Beauty & Health of Georgia's Coast Spaceport Camden www.spaceportfacts.org Spaceport comments, July 2017 Draft Environmental Impact Statement on "Spaceport Camden" Public hearings on this impact statement to be held April 11 and 12 in Kingsland, Georgia at the Recreation Center. New information disclosed on March 22 indicates that claims made in the "draft EIS" greatly understate the "hazard area" for launches. Even for the smallest rockets - in use and anticipated - the hazard zone is actually more than DOUBLE the width evaluated in the draft environmental impact statement. On that basis alone, the current EIS must be rejected and a new, accurate assessment must be produced - using objective evaluation of FACTS!
