Proposed Powder River Complex expansion

The U.S. Air Force, in cooperation with the Federal Aviation Administration, is in the process of analyzing the potential environmental consequences of a proposal to expand the Powder River Complex to meet the airspace training needs of today's Air Force. Results of the analysis are expected to be released to the public as a Draft Environmental Impact Statement in the Spring of 2010 with formal public hearings following the release. Dates, times and locations for public hearings will be published in local media. We will continue to use this site to provide information to the public, and will update it as additional information becomes available.
