No. They do them in advance. The bank or whatever financial institution backing it will require it. I've done hundreds of them.



They were core sampling last week and already filed for a new core sample permit. Some as deep as 150 ft

I’m sure they will be doing lots of geotechnical sampling.

That isn’t environmental.

Any Phase I or Phase II was done well before any of this became public.

That’s not what I heard today. The FAA has a proposed rule to waive environmental protections/requirements for space launch sites and has apparently moved forward with the spacex site in anticipation of this rule becoming regulation.

No.

Just 20+ years working on the environmental side of industry and understanding how this works.

SpaceX is looking for a palm greaser. Certainly the right candidate is amongst us.
