Section 900.403 - Supplemental EIS
(a) Supplements to either draft or final EISs shall be prepared, as prescribed in 40 CFR 1502.9 , when the Commission finds that there are substantial changes are proposed in a project that are relevant to environmental concerns; or when there are significant new circumstances or information relevant to environmental concerns and bearing on the proposed action or its impacts.
(b) Where Commission action remains to be taken and the EIS is more than three years old, the Commission will review the EIS to determine whether it is adequate or requires supplementation.
