                    The Secretary is required under the CZMA to close the decision record for an appeal no later than 220 days after notice of the appeal is first published in the                     **Federal Register**                    .                     *See*16 U.S.C. 1465(b). Once the decision record is closed, the Secretary is prohibited from considering any additional information, briefs, or comments not previously submitted and made part of the decision record prior to closure.                     *Id.*

No further information, briefs, or comments (not previously submitted and made part of the decision record prior to closure) will be considered by the Secretary in deciding the appeal.
