Tester Statement on Powder River Training Complex Decision

Statement

Date: Jan. 16, 2015
Location: Billings, MT
Issues: Transportation Defense

Senator Jon Tester today issued the following statement after the Air Force issued its decision to move forward with the Powder River Training Complex (PRTC) expansion:

"This decision is no doubt disappointing, but there are still opportunities to make sure that Montanans' concerns are heard. Moving forward, the Air Force and the FAA must ensure that the proposed expansion doesn't negatively impact general aviation, agricultural operations, and the safety of the Keystone pipeline. I'll continue pushing until those concerns are addressed."
