CAPE CANAVERAL VISION STATEMENT
WE ENVISION: A bike-able and walk-able Cape Canaveral that retains and enhances its
residential feel, characterized by low-rise buildings not more than 4 stories in height. This
residential and business friendly atmosphere is one of a live-able, attractive, safe, secure and
sustainable coastal community that embraces the beach and riverside as the main amenities, and
supports local culture and education.
WE ENVISION: A1A as a “complete street” with a native-landscaped and tree-lined median
with traffic calming elements and dark-sky street lighting. “Complete street” amenities include
bicycle facilities, covered transit stops, and safe pedestrian crossings that invite pedestrians and
bicyclists to access the beach, river, local neighborhoods and adjacent communities. Our improved
“complete streets” will allow us to calmly travel to intimate waterfront destinations and a walk-
able downtown core. Multi-use paths lined with shade trees should be wide enough for bikes and
pedestrians and lighted so anyone can walk or bicycle safely anywhere in town, day or night.
WE ENVISION: Welcoming community entrance features that create a sense of arrival and
unique community identity. The “downtown” will contain an architecturally rich and unique mix
of uses, with wide tree shaded sidewalks and umbrella covered café tables at restaurants and bistros
where friends gather, interact, and enjoy drinks and dinner.
WE ENVISION: A community that; removes or transforms blighted and unfinished buildings
into attractive structures, offers city-wide green spaces, provides a pet-friendly park with ample
shade, and actively recruits and supports businesses that enhance economic viability and serve our
residents and visitors.
WE ENVISION: Open shorelines and rivers accessible to the public including amenities that
take advantage of the water, such as limited and quaint water-view establishments and intimate
public gathering and entertainment places that may include pavilions, gazebos, or a performance
stage.

PORT AUTHORITY TO CONSIDER ROADS TASK FORCE PARTICIPATION
PORT CANAVERAL, FL—December 15, 2015 – With the expected increase in Port
business activities, the Canaveral Port Authority (CPA) Commission on Wednesday will
consider a staff request to work with neighboring city of Cape Canaveral and the Florida
Department of Transportation on planning for future traffic growth.
“We want to work with our neighbors to identify alternative and additional roadways into
the Port for better traffic flow for visitors to the Cove, cruise passengers, and our cargo
customers,” said Port Canaveral Director of Real Estate Scott Shepard. “We have to act
now with consistent and comprehensive planning in order to reap the benefits of
increased growth and safe, improved traffic flow in the future.”
The plan calls for a joint task force to identify a road network to connect Dave Nisbet
Drive, Flounder Street, Columbia Road, Marlin Street at the Port to State Road A-1-A in
Cape Canaveral. In addition, the task force would consider possible alternates to George
King Boulevard at the Port to Atlantic Avenue and State Road A-1-A in Cape Canaveral.
Port staff will ask for permission to work with Cape Canaveral and FDOT to begin
preliminary studies and engineering.
The Canaveral Port Authority monthly Commission meeting begins at 9 a.m. on
Wednesday, December 16, at the Maritime Center. The meetings are broadcast live and
available on demand at www.portcanaveral.com.

PORT AWAITS PERMISSION TO FURTHER STUDY FEASIBILITY OF
RAIL ROUTE THROUGH AIR FORCE PROPERTY
PORT CANAVERAL, FL—December 16, 2015 – The Canaveral Port Authority (CPA) is
awaiting response to its request for follow-up access to Cape Canaveral Air Force Station
to complete a feasibility study to determine if a route through Air Force property can be
added to the federal environmental review of the Port’s rail project. Last month, the
Surface Transportation Board (STB) granted the Port Authority’s request to pause the
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) process to allow the Port to evaluate the feasibility
of a Cape Canaveral Air Force Station freight rail alignment. Pending the outcome of the
Port’s feasibility analysis, the STB may consider including the Air Force route as one of
the routes to be studied in the EIS.
“The Port Authority initiated talks with the Air Force in 2012 regarding the possibility of
rail connection through Cape Canaveral Air Force Station,” said Jim Dubea, Port
Canaveral’s Deputy Director of Government Relations and Strategic Partnerships. “Our
meeting with Pentagon officials last month was fruitful and one step closer to resolving
the question of whether a viable route exists.”
Once the CPA completes further evaluation of the Air Force route, it will request the STB
to resume the environmental review process of all routes identified as potentially feasible.
Currently, the routes include an alignment through Kennedy Space Center and one that
parallels State Road 528.
After the STB has issued its final scope of study, determining which routes will move
forward with an extensive environmental review, it will then prepare a draft EIS. At that
time, there will be public opportunities for comment regarding the draft EIS and the various
routes. The Port Authority Commission will make no final decision on whether to proceed
with rail until the completion of the STB process.
For updated information on the rail extension project, visit the STB project website
www.portcanaveralraileis.com.

:: number five :: Craig Technologies' Scientist Co-
Authors NASA Study
Craig Technologies scientist, John Robbins, who works on the NASA
Goddard GGSG contract, co-authored a NASA study on Antartic Ice
Sheets.
The study, which looks at the accumulation of Antartic snow than began
over 10,000 years ago, says that enough ice has been added to
outweigh the increased losses from thinning glaciers.
"Although it's well known that Greenland has a net loss of ice, the story in
Antarctica has, so far been different, but the rate of accumulation appears
to be
slowing down." said John.

:: number four :: Kennedy Space Center - A 21st
Century Spaceport
Government and Commercial partners are coming together to establish
Kennedy Space Center (KSC) as a 21st century spaceport.
From the article:
"For more than 30 years, Kennedy was a hub of activity supporting
processing, launch and landings during America's Space Shuttle Program.
Thousands of skilled engineers and technicians supported missions that
made possible unprecedented achievements in the utilization of space.
Shuttle crews deployed and serviced the Hubble Space Telescope, and built
the International Space Station involving the world's best innovators."
"Following the conclusion of shuttle flights and reductions in the size of the
workforce, a new approach was required. Additionally, President Barack
Obama challenged NASA and the nation to develop a new spacecraft,
designed for long journeys to allow the nation to send humans to an
asteroid and, ultimately, a landing on Mars."
To see this mission and vision become reality, historic and unused facilities
have been turned over to industry partners to be transformed for today's
use, and updated with new technology.
One such partnership was the 2012 agreement between Craig Technologies
and NASA to maintain processing and manufacturing equipment at the
former NASA Shuttle Logistics Depot in Cape Canaveral. The now called
Aerospace and Defense Manufacturing Center (ADMC) is just one exciting
sign of the progress being made at KSC.

exciting changes at KSC.
:: number three :: I/ITSEC 2015 Rewind
The Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation and Education Conference
(I/ITSEC) was held in Orlando, Florida Nov 30 - Dec 4 2015,
and Craig Technologies was on the floor.
Watch the I/ITSEC 2015 Exhibit Floor
Time Lapse
I/ITSEC is the world's largest modeling, simulation, and training
conference and it consists of peer-reviewed paper presentations, tutorials,
special events, professional workshops, a commercial exhibit hall, a
serious games competition, and STEM events for teachers and secondary
students. I/ITSEC is organized by the National Training and Simulation
Association (NTSA), which promotes international and interdisciplinary
cooperation within the fields of modeling and simulation (M&S), training,
education, analysis, and related disciplines at this annual meeting. The
NTSA is an affiliate subsidiary of the National Defense Industrial
Association (NDIA). Hence, I/ITSEC also emphasizes themes related to
defense and security.
The emphasis for Craig Technologies was to connect in a professional
forum to understand upcoming opportunities and business trends,
establish business relationships, maintain and/or reestablish business
relationships and of course have a presence/awareness in the community.
In addition to exploring business opportunties at the expo, Founder and
CEO Carol Craig presented to Leadership Orlando Class 90 about the
importance of MS&T to the Florida High Tech Corridor, military, and
associated small businesses.
Charlie Huffine, Craig Technologies' Senior Advisor, is an Assistant Chair
for the Training Technical Paper Committee reviewing abstracts to become
papers that may be presented at I/ITSEC. Once the Selection process is
complete, Charlie then supports the presentations at the conference
keeping authors and program on task.
STEM Outreach Coordinator Carey Beam had the honor of chaperoning
five students from the Merritt Island High School da Vinci Aerospace
Academy as they toured the simulations and talked with companies about
internships on the exhibit floor. Read more about STEM at I/ITSEC
Also on the floor this year were Dean Rosenquist, COO: Mark Mikolajczyk,
President ADMC; Greg Sheppard, Director of Strategic Business
Development; Phil Bryden, Director of Strategic Programs; Dave
Schreiner, Director Business Development; Tim Hagerty, Director of
Product Development and Dennis O'Neil, Software Development.
We look forward to next year's event. Learn more about the I/ITSEC
conference here.
Craig Technologies provides MS&T support to government and
commercial customers across the US. View more about our capabilities.
:: number two :: Exciting changes for the Aerospace
and Defense Manufacturing Center
Craig Technologies manufacturing division at the Aerospace and Defense
Manufacturing Center (ADMC) is currently undergoing an upgrade to
improve our capabilities and increase our manufacturing capacity!
Three new Haas 5-axis Machining Centers and a Tsugami Multi-axis
Swiss-screw turning center have been added to the floor. Craig
Technologies' machining operations can now support a wider variety of
manufacturing opportunities and increase our customer base. "The Haas
Machining Centers allow for the machining of larger, more complex piece
parts." said ADMC President Mark Mikolajczyk. "The Tsugami Turning
Center will take machining that would normally take hours to manufacture
on conventional machines down to just minutes."
The ADMC class 100,000 cleanrooms are being prepared for
recertification that requires the generation of processes and procedures to
provide a controlled area access to permit, assembly, repair, and test of
various space flight hardware. "The pneumatic and hydraulic control
systems we are currently manufacturing at the ADMC will be final
assembled and tested in the newly certified cleanrooms." said Mark. "This
is particularly important with all the changes happening at Kennedy Space
Center. We are in the right place at the right time."
Lastly, the ADMC is undergoing the activation of the non-destructive
inspection lab. This will include certifcation for several NDE processes
such as liquid dye-penetrant, magnetic particle inspection, computed
tomography, and real time radiography. Costs for these proceses are
generally high, and providing these capabilities in-house will bring cost
reductions to our customers.
"As the ADMC continues its growth, new advancements in manufacturing
are continuing to be evaluated. These additions to an already significant
manufacturing capability are what make the Craig Aerospace and Defense
Manufacturing Center a rapidly growing leader in manufacturing in the
Southeast-Atlantic region." - Mark Mikolajczyk
The three new Haas 5-axis Machining Centers.
