Negotiations are currently underway between the three parties to the agreement, but the final language had not been worked out as of May 1999. Since the requirements of the assessment portion of the agreement are somewhat similar to the requirements imposed by E.O. 12114, ie. impacts to foreign territory must be addressed in NEPA documents, we require that EISs prepared on major federal actions on the OCS contain an assessment of potential significant impacts to foreign territory.
