#### 11C Seismic or exploratory drilling environment plan to be resubmitted for fresh completeness check and public comments if significantly modified
(1) This regulation applies if:
(a) the titleholder who submitted a seismic or exploratory drilling environment plan modifies it (under subregulation 11B(3) or otherwise); and
(b) the plan, as modified, relates to:
(i) a significant modification or new stage of any of the seismic or exploratory drilling activities to which the plan previously related; or
(ii) a seismic or exploratory drilling activity to which the plan did not previously relate; and
(c) the modification is made:
(i) after the Regulator published the plan (with the sensitive information part removed) under regulation 9AB or subregulation 11B(5); and
(ii) before the Regulator makes a decision under regulation 10 to accept, or refuse to accept, the plan.
(2) The titleholder must resubmit the plan (as modified) to the Regulator.
> Note: Under regulation 9AA the Regulator must decide provisionally whether the resubmitted plan includes material apparently addressing all the provisions of Division 2.3 (Contents of an environment plan). If the Regulator decides provisionally that the resubmitted plan does, the Regulator must publish the resubmitted plan and an invitation for anyone to comment on matters relating to the resubmitted plan: see regulations 9AB and 11B.
(3) The Regulator must cease to act under Division 2.2 and this Division in relation to the plan as it existed before the modification.
