SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
September 20, 2019, the Secretary of
Commerce (Secretary) received a
‘‘Notice of Appeal’’ filed by
WesternGeco 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 ‘‘Notice of
Appeal’’ is taken from an objection by
the South Carolina Department of
Health and Environmental Control to a
consistency certification for a proposed
project to conduct a marine Geological
and Geophysical seismic survey in the
Atlantic Ocean. This matter constitutes
an appeal of an ‘‘energy project’’ within
the meaning of the CZMA regulations,
see 15 CFR 930.123(c).
Under the CZMA, the Secretary may
override South Carolina’s objection on
grounds that the project is consistent
with the objectives or purposes of the
CZMA, or is 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 national interest
furthered by the proposed activity
outweighs the activity’s adverse coastal
effects, when those effects are
considered separately or cumulatively;
and (3) no reasonable alternative is
available that would permit the
proposed activity to be conducted in a
manner consistent with the enforceable
policies of the applicable coastal
management program. 15 CFR 930.121.
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
if the proposed activity is not permitted
to go forward as proposed. 15 CFR
930.122.
The Secretary must close the decision
record in a Federal consistency appeal
160 days after the Notice of Appeal is

published in the Federal Register. 15
CFR 930.130(a)(1). However, the CZMA
authorizes the Secretary to stay closing
the decision record for up to 60 days
when the Secretary determines it
necessary to receive, on an expedited
basis, any supplemental information
specifically requested by the Secretary
to complete a consistency review or any
clarifying information submitted by a
party to the proceeding related to
information in the consolidated record
compiled by the lead Federal permitting
agency. 15 CFR 930.130(a)(2), (3).
After reviewing the decision record
developed to date, the Secretary has
decided to solicit supplemental and
clarifying information from the parties
pertaining to the withholding of certain
information as proprietary. In order to
allow receipt of this information, the
Secretary hereby stays closure of the
decision record, currently scheduled to
occur on March 30, 2020, until April 13,
2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On September 20, 2019, the Secretary of
Commerce (Secretary) received a ``Notice of Appeal'' filed by
WesternGeco 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 ``Notice of Appeal'' is taken from an
objection by the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental
Control to a consistency certification for a proposed project to
conduct a marine Geological and Geophysical seismic survey in the
Atlantic Ocean. This matter constitutes an appeal of an ``energy
project'' within the meaning of the CZMA regulations, see 15 CFR
930.123(c).
Under the CZMA, the Secretary may override South Carolina's
objection on grounds that the project is consistent with the objectives
or purposes of the CZMA, or is 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 national interest
furthered by the proposed activity outweighs the activity's adverse
coastal effects, when those effects are considered separately or
cumulatively; and (3) no reasonable alternative is available that would

with the enforceable policies of the applicable coastal management
program. 15 CFR 930.121. 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 if the proposed activity is
not permitted to go forward as proposed. 15 CFR 930.122.
The Secretary must close the decision record in a Federal
consistency appeal 160 days after the Notice of Appeal is published in
the Federal Register. 15 CFR 930.130(a)(1). However, the CZMA
authorizes the Secretary to stay closing the decision record for up to
60 days when the Secretary determines it necessary to receive, on an
expedited basis, any supplemental information specifically requested by
the Secretary to complete a consistency review or any clarifying
information submitted by a party to the proceeding related to
