In addition to the hearing, NOAA solicited written comments from the public on the amendment. NOAA is issuing preliminary findings on the request for approval of the amendments to the PRCZMP. Although most of the changes to the PRCZMP have been found to be approvable, NOAA has found that the fast-tracking of the permitting process does not provide a meaningful opportunity for public participation in the process. NOAA has also identified concerns with the placement of permitting authority in authorized professionals. These preliminary findings are subject to change pending a response from the Commonwealth, and comments from the public. NOAA has also completed a draft environmental assessment pursuant to the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act for this review. Comments on the draft environmental assessment are also being solicited. The preliminary findings and draft environmental assessment are available for review on the Regulations.Gov Web site under Docket No. ‘‘NOAA–NOS– 2016–0148.’’ Federal Domestic Assistance Catalog 11.419.
