January, 2026

Here's what you've been saying to the Governor!

In January, you were asked to urge Governor Healey to stop the proposed massive private jet hangar expansion at Hanscom. If it goes ahead, it is expected to add 6,000 new private jet flights each year, which would generate about 150,000 new tons of CO2e each year (see IEc report).

Here are excerpts from some of your personal comments.

Stay poised for Hanscom Developers’ SDEIR report

In June 2024, EEA Secretary Tepper rejected the Hanscom developers’ DEIR (Draft Environmental Impact Report) after receiving over 1,500 public comments, 13,500 petition signatures, and an important independent analysis that refuted the developers’ claims. Tepper instructed the developers to go back to the drawing board to produce an SDEIR (Supplementary DEIR). The SDEIR has not yet been filed.
