2022The rule allowing extra-record evidence in HEPA cases “is not a two-way street.” See Citizen Advocs. for Responsible Expansion, Inc. (I-Care) v. Dole, 770 F.2d 423 , 438 n.18 (5th Cir. 1985) (discussing NEPA). “[I]f the agency knew that it could always ‘supplement’ or ‘create’ the administrative record in the reviewing court,” then the agency “would have little incentive to prepare an adequate and reviewable administrative record, despite the clear mandate of NEPA [and HEPA] that the agency prepare the required record before deciding upon a particular course of conduct.” Id.
