Except for some specialists and a very narrow sphere of public figures in charge of the execution of the national EXTRAPLAC (the Reasonable Extension of the Continental Shelf) programme aimed at the extension of the French continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles, this issue has been overlooked. What is the Extended Continental shelf? For France which already occupies the second largest maritime area in the world after the United States, with 11 million km² distributed among all the oceans, thanks to the Overseas Territories, this is the possibility: – To expand its sovereign rights on the natural resources of the seabed and subsoil over approximately an additional 2 million km²; – To acquire sovereign rights for the exploration and exploitation of natural resources over these new areas; – To increase its geostrategic power. The access to potential wealth (hydrocarbons, hydrothermal sulphides, cobalt crusts, polymetallic nodules, natural hydrogen, and biological resources) may constitute a considerable asset for our country if this contributes to a new model of sustainable development, especially in the Overseas Territories. The 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, “a true constitution of the oceans”, and more precisely Article 76 thereof, gives coastal states the possibility to extend their continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles. With this aim, France has implemented the EXTRAPLAC programme. In order to complete the conquest of the extended continental shelf and to implement a truly maritime policy in accordance with the responsibilities and obligations of France, the ESEC formulates the following recommendations: Ê To finalise the EXTRAPLAC programme Identify and secure funding for the completion of the EXTRAPLAC programme The ESEC recommends the urgent execution of a budgetary appraisal with regards to the completion of the EXTRAPLAC programme. As a result, the government 1 The entire draft opinion was adopted unanimously by open vote (see the result of the vote in the annex).

Ainsi, la France grâce aux outre-mer peut espérer étendre ses droits souverains sur les ressources naturelles du sol et du sous-sol marins sur près de deux millions de km2. L’avis du CESE vise à finaliser le programme intitulé EXTRAPLAC dont s’est dotée la France pour L’extension du plateau atteindre cet objectif. Il vise aussi à tirer les conséquences de l’acquisition de ces droits souverains en termes de connaissance de l’environnement marin et de ses ressources ; de leur préservation continental au-delà et de leur exploitation ; d’encadrement juridique des activités mises œuvre et d’implication des territoires ultramarins dans le cadre de leur développement durable. des 200 milles marins : Le CESE recommande que soit définie une véritable politique maritime digne d’un pays présent un atout pour la France sur tous les océans grâce aux Outre-mer.
