The Commercial Space Launch Act of 1984 as recodified at 49 U.S.C. Subtitle IX-- Commercial Space Transportation, ch. 701, Commercial Space Launch Activities, 49 U.S.C. Section 70101- authorizes the Secretary of Transportation to license launches or the operation of launch sites carried out by U.S. citizens or within the United States. The Department of Transportation (DOT) has delegated this authority to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). In order to enable the development and use of private launch sites, the FAA proposed amending its commercial space transportation licensing regulations to include licensing and safety requirements for the operation of launch sites. A Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) has been developed and published in the Federal Register on June 25, 1999.
