Bates MA, Charles J, Collinson TB, Eldridge JC, Ige GK, Knight JW, Randall D, Warren SM, Walker S. 2006. Environmental assessment for the testing and evaluatin of directed energy systems using laser technology at Edwards Air Force Base. DACA05-01-D-0005. Tetra Tech, Inc. Santa Barbara, CA
The U.S. Air Force proposes to test and evaluate low, medium, and high power directed energy (DE) systems using light amplification by stimulated emission of radar (laser) technology at Edwards Air Force Base, and within the R-2508 Complex, California. This environmental assessment and finding of no significant impact discusses, air quality, airspace, cultural resources, environmental justice, geology, soils, hazardous waste/hazardous materials, infrastructure, land use, natural resources, noise, public/emergency services, safety, socioeconomics, and water resources. No potentially significant impacts were identified to any of these areas under the alternatives considered based on the proposed mitigation measures.
