The Pease Development Authority, the public entity that manages land around the former Pease Air Force Base near Portsmouth, N.H., has received the title to the final 268 acres of the base. The organization had leased the acreage from the Air Force pending the resolution of environmental issues covered under federal Superfund laws. PDA says it is well into developing the land for industrial and commercial use.
The Space Development Agency says it’s on track to issue its next batch of missile warning and tracking satellite contracts this month after those awards were delayed by the Pentagon’s decision to divert funds from the agency to pay troops during this fall’s prolonged government shutdown.
