SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Habitat and Ecosystem AP will finalize
the Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) 5-Year
Review, finalize revisions to the
Council’s Energy Exploration,
Development, Transportation and
Hydropower Re-Licensing Policy, and
begin the revisions to the Alterations to
Riverine, Estuarine and Nearshore
Flows Policy. The AP will also review
the extent of tide gate, living shoreline,
and beneficial use projects and their
impacts on habitat, review the Mid
Atlantic Fishery Management Council’s
Fishing Effects Database and App,
receive an update on the Army Corps of
Engineers project for reefs, and receive
a presentation on offshore wind
infrastructure coverage and artificial
reef footprints. Finally, the AP will
review the progress on the Habitat
section of the Council’s website, the
tools and partner evaluation detailed in
the Habitat Blueprint, communication
and outreach efforts, the Habitat and
Ecosystem AP workplan, and the next
EFH 5-year review. The AP will provide
recommendations to the Council on
other topics as needed.

North American Datum of 1983 (NAD
83) frames and all vertical datums of the
NSRS, including the North American
Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88), with
four new terrestrial reference frames and
one new geopotential datum to which
all geodetic coordinates and derived
coordinates within the NSRS will be
referenced. NGS is releasing key details
of the transition to the new datums in
the modernized NSRS to help users and
interested parties prepare for the coming
change.
DATES: The modernization of the NSRS
is scheduled to occur in 2025 or 2026.
NGS intends to release associated tools
and services within five years of the
modernization.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
modernization of the NSRS is designed
to improve the accuracy of Federal
geodetic control. For over 200 years,
NGS and its predecessor agencies
(including the Survey of the Coast,
which was founded in 1807), have been
the stewards of the NSRS—the geodetic
infrastructure of the United States. NGS
strives to modernize the NSRS as
technology and scientific knowledge
advance. In 2020, NGS issued a Federal
Register Notice (FRN) announcing that
the completion and rollout of the NSRS
modernization was expected to occur
between 2022 and 2025 (85 FR 44864).
This notice announces the updated
projected timeline for the latest
modernization effort.
The last significant modernization of
the NSRS resulted in the creation of the
original North American Datum of 1983
(54 FR 25318) and the North American
Vertical Datum of 1988 (58 FR 34245).
These datums were defined before the
widespread use of the Global
Positioning System (GPS) and Global
Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), and
were determined using classical (i.e.,
terrestrial, line-of-sight) geodetic
measurement techniques. Over the
years, minor corrections to and
expansion of the NSRS occurred;
however, no significant update was
possible until now. Through modern
