SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Notice of Appeal
On January 27, 2010, Pan American
Grain Co. filed notice of an appeal with
the Secretary of Commerce (Secretary),
pursuant to the Coastal Zone
Management Act of 1972 (CZMA), 16
U.S.C. 1451 et seq., and implementing
regulations found at 15 CFR Part 930,
Subpart H. The appeal is taken from an
objection by the Board to Pan
American’s consistency certification for
proposed improvements to its port
facilities located in San Juan Bay, Puerto
Rico.
Under the CZMA, the Secretary may
override Alabama’s objection on
grounds that the project is consistent
with the objectives or purposes of the
CZMA or otherwise necessary in the
interest of national security. To make
the determination that the proposed
activity is ‘‘consistent with the
objectives or purposes of the CZMA,’’
the Department must find that: (1) The
proposed activity furthers the national
interest as articulated in sections 302 or
303 of the CZMA, in a significant or
substantial manner; (2) the adverse
effects of the proposed activity do not
outweigh its contribution to the national
interest, when those effects are
considered separately or cumulatively;
and (3) no reasonable alternative is
available that would permit the activity
to be conducted in a manner consistent
with enforceable policies of the
applicable coastal management
program. 15 CFR 930.121. Conversely,
to make the determination that the
proposed activity is ‘‘necessary in the
interest of national security,’’ the
Secretary must find that a national
defense or other national security
interest would be significantly impaired
were the activity not permitted to go
forward as proposed. 15 CFR 930.122.
