Dyess Lawsuit

The Rapid City Journal has more about that lawsuit which might compromise Dyess Air Base in Texas:

Meanwhile, a 5-year-old lawsuit challenging the Dyess bomber training route as disruptive was apparently not factored into the Air Force recommendations, Sen. John Thune, R-S.D., said this week. The training range is operating under court-imposed restrictions pending a supplemental environmental impact statement.

"That range complex is being managed by a federal judge, not the Air Force," McElgunn said. "It takes time. … It's not something that can be cleared up next week." He said that the lawsuit only takes into account the number of planes now at Dyess.
