Description:The Uncrewed Systems Research Transition Office (UxSRTO) in the Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is often directly or indirectly involved in the funding, procurement, and operation of small Uncrewed Aircraft Systems during the course of its normal office functions. The UxSRTO, and its predecessor, the NOAA UAS Program Office in OAR, were formally established to provide guidance and expertise for NOAA’s efforts in the testing and development of UAS and to help expand UAS research, development, and transitions to operations and commercialization. This PEA evaluates the potential impacts on the environment from the types of small UAS platforms and operations commonly supported by the UxSRTO across NOAA, in any environment for which NOAA has a mission and potential need for UAS resources to help meet related mission objectives.
