SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DAF has selected Alternative 1, 100-Foot 
Above Ground Level (AGL) floor for subsonic flight across all Military 
Operations Areas (MOA) and Alternative B, 10,000-Foot AGL Supersonic 
Floor across all MOAs. Based on this decision, the DAF will request the 
Federal Aviation Administration modify the subsonic low-altitude floors 
and supersonic altitude floors to be consistent across all the MOAs in 
the Mountain Home Special Use Airspace.
    The DAF decision documented in the ROD was based on matters 
discussed in the Final Environmental Impact Statement, inputs from the 
public and regulatory agencies, and other relevant factors. The Final 
Environmental Impact Statement was made available to the public on 
March 3, 2023, through a Notice of Availability in the Federal Register 
(Volume 88, Number 42, Page 13443) with a waiting period that ended on 
April 3, 2023.
    Authority: This Notice of Availability is published pursuant to the 
regulations (40 CFR part 1506.6) implementing the provisions of the 
National Environmental Policy Act (42 U.S.C. 4321, et seq.) and the Air 
Force's Environmental Impact Analysis Process (32 CFR parts 989.21(b) 
and 989.24(b)(7)).
