Background
On December 13, 2024, the Secretary
of Commerce (Secretary) received a
‘‘Notice of Appeal’’ filed by Robert
Hagopian, pursuant to the Coastal Zone
Management Act (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 New
York State Department of State to the
Appellant’s CZMA consistency
certification for Appellant’s pending
permit application to the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers to perform shoreline
stabilization, dock installation, and
dredging at a property along the Hudson
River in Ulster, New York.
Under the CZMA, the Secretary may
override the New York State Department
of State’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 Secretary 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 Appellant bears the
burden of submitting evidence in
support of his appeal and the burden of
persuasion. 15 CFR 930.127.
