They seem to be increasingly confident about the Fish & Wildlife approval. Wonder what kind of internal messaging is happening there (F&W just saying "we're still signing it but it's fine" or something).
I don’t think the Fish & Wildlife Service approves spacecraft launches. They just need to amend their opinion within 135 days AFAIK.
The FAA won't issue a launch license until the environmental review of the last launch is complete, part of which is performed by the Fish & Wildlife Service.
Or maybe they'll just go for it and see if this was a bluff by the govt
