    Type:Notice

    The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) has proposed granting an Incidental Harassment Authorization (IHA) to the United States Air Force (USAF) for repair work at the Eareckson Air Station Fuel Pier in Alaska. This authorization would allow USAF to perform activities that might incidentally disturb marine mammals in the area. The proposal considers public comments and follows the implementation of mitigation measures to ensure minimal impact on the animals and their environment. NMFS is welcoming public feedback on the proposed authorization and is considering a potential one-year renewal if certain conditions are met.

    Simple Explanation

    The USAF wants to fix a fuel pier in Alaska, and they need permission because their work might bother sea animals. They're asking people to share their thoughts on this plan.

  • 2025-06218 — Public Land Order No. 7961; Extension of Public Land Order No. 6591; Withdrawal of Public Land for the United States Air Force, Nevada
    Type:Notice
    Citation:90 FR 15469
    Reading Time:about 2 minutes

    The Bureau of Land Management has extended Public Land Order No. 6591 for 20 more years to continue protecting certain public lands in Nevada for the United States Air Force. These lands, on Halligan Mesa in Nye County, are withdrawn from activities like settlement and mining but can still be leased under mineral leasing laws. This extension is crucial to maintain the secure operation of national defense activities at the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR) by safeguarding a communication site and support facilities. The extension of the order takes effect on April 11, 2025, and will last until 2045 unless reviewed and further extended.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is keeping a special spot in Nevada just for the Air Force for 20 more years to help them use it safely, like a playground for special communication tools. They won’t let people build houses or dig for treasure there, but they might let them borrow some minerals sometimes.
