Space task force seeks public comment
WASHINGTON, (UPI) -- NASA says a Web site has been created to gather public comment on ways to promote economic growth along Florida's Space Coast region.
Officials said the Web site, created by the Task Force on Space Industry Workforce and Economic Development, also offers information about job creation projects in the area as it adapts to changes in the nation's space program.
"We consider the new interactive website an important tool to understand public concerns and challenges about the economic growth and well being of Florida's Space Coast," said Woodrow Whitlow, associate administrator of NASA's Mission Support Directorate. "This tool and our other outreach efforts will help the task force prepare recommendations for the president that reflects the greatest needs and concerns of both the public and the area's aerospace-related industries."
The task force's recommendations are to be presented to the president by August.
