Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner materially changed his proposed endeavor after filing the petition. The AAO determined it could not consider facts or plans that came into existence after the petition was filed, and therefore evaluated the original plan, which was not sufficiently supported to establish national importance.
