I have a question that is twofold. Recently Corsair Canyon, Georges Bank, and Jordan Basin were designated benthic areas, protected areas.

Is that the same process for an MPA in terms of the community consultation, which is my big concern, and who was asked the question about that? Second, is this the first step in moving to make that a total MPA?
