SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DAF has selected Modified Alternative 1:
Create the Corsair North Low, Corsair South Low, Mustang Low, and
Warhawk Low Military Operations Areas (MOAs) with a floor of 1,000 ft
above ground level (AGL) and a ceiling of 7,999 ft above mean sea level
(MSL) beneath and within the lateral confines of the existing Corsair
North, Corsair South, Mustang and Warhawk MOAs, respectively; create
the Thud Low MOA with a floor of 4,000 ft AGL and a ceiling of 7,999 ft
MSL beneath and within the lateral confines of the existing Thud MOA;
create Grand Bay MOA with a floor of 100 ft AGL and a ceiling of 499 ft
AGL beneath and within the lateral confines of the existing Restricted
Area R-3008C; and lower the floor of Moody 2 North MOA from 500 ft AGL
to 100 ft AGL. Based on this decision, the DAF will request the Federal
Aviation Administration modify the low-altitude airspace floors to
enhance low-altitude training within the Moody Airspace Complex.
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 May
19, 2023, through a Notice of Availability in the Federal Register (88
FR 32215) with a waiting period that ended on June 20, 2023.

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)).
