AIR SPACE UTILIZATION: TOWARD A SUPER-ENVIRONMENT

THE REASONS FOR THE LACK OF UNIFORM AIRSPACE LEGISLATION AND IMPLEMENTATION ARE DISCUSSED IN REGARD TO UTILIZATION OF AIRSPACE OVER AND UNDER EXISTING STRUCTURES, PARTICULARLY HIGHWAYS AND BUILDINGS; UTILIZATION OF AIRSPACE FOR THE PURPOSES OF URBAN RENEWAL AND REDEVELOPMENT; AND UTILIZATION OF AIRSPACE BY PRIVATE GROUPS. THE PASSAGE OF A UNIFORM AIRSPACE PROPERTY ACT AND THE CREATION OF FEDERAL AND STATE AIRSPACE MANAGEMENT, CONTROL AND DISPOSITION AUTHORITIES ARE ADVOCATED. A COMPREHENSIVE AND EXTENSIVE INVESTIGATION OF AIRSPACE UTILIZATION IS SHOWN TO BE A MEANS OF PROVIDING A FLEXIBLE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT FOR THE FUTURE. /AUTHOR/
