This proclamation announces the "Ratepayer Protection Pledge" and declares that its commitments effectuate national policy. Under the pledge, accepted by seven leading technology companies on March 4, 2026, hyperscalers and AI companies commit to building, bringing, or buying the new generation resources needed to meet their data centers' electricity demand, paying for all new power delivery infrastructure upgrades, negotiating separate rate structures with utilities and state governments, investing in local communities, and coordinating with grid operators so that data center energy needs do not increase household electricity costs.

This proclamation revokes Proclamation 10287 (Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument), issued October 8, 2021, and directs that the monument be managed in accordance with Proclamation 10049 (Modifying the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument), issued June 5, 2020, which allows commercial fishing within the monument. The President finds that a commercial fishing prohibition is not necessary because the monument's objects are protected under existing federal laws, including the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, and provides that where Proclamation 10049 conflicts with Proclamation 9496, this proclamation and Proclamation 10049 govern.

This proclamation exempts the primary copper smelters identified in Annex I from compliance with the EPA's May 13, 2024 Copper Rule (National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Primary Copper Smelting Residual Risk and Technology Review and Primary Copper Smelting Area Source Technology Review) for 2 years beyond each of the Rule's compliance deadlines, invoking section 112(i)(4) of the Clean Air Act. During the exemption period, the listed sources remain subject to the emissions standards in effect prior to the Copper Rule. The President determines that the technology required by the Copper Rule is not commercially available and that the exemption is in the national security interests of the United States, citing EO 14220 (Addressing the Threat to National Security From Imports of Copper).
