United States Tenth Circuit

The environmental impact statement concerning a proposal to permit the German Air Force to station 30 additional fighter aircraft at Holloman Air Force Base did not violate the National Environmental Policy Act by limiting its alternatives analysis to those available at Holloman, and its analysis of specific impacts was not deficient. As private parties, plaintiffs lack standing to challenge Case-Zablocki Act violations.
