+Date: April 29, 2024
+One-line Summary: workaround so that sct works on derecho
+Github PR URL: https://github.com/ESCOMP/CAM/pull/1019
+
+Purpose of changes (include the issue number and title text for each relevant GitHub issue):
+  - Newest ccs_config tag causes the derecho_intel SCT test to fail: https://github.com/ESCOMP/CAM/issues/1017
+
+  IMPORTANT NOTE:  This tag breaks the SCT test on derecho (see below) as it does not bring in the  update to ccs_config_cesm0.0.99
+                   The reason to do this is that this change will be available for the next CESM alpha tag starting today.
+		   In order to not hold up the CESM alpha tag sequence, we do not have time to run the full regression test suite
+
