  We construct a manifestly covariant differential Noether charge for theories
with Chern-Simons terms in higher dimensional spacetimes. This is in contrast
to Tachikawa's extension of the standard Lee-Iyer-Wald formalism which results
in a non-covariant differential Noether charge for Chern-Simons terms. On a
bifurcation surface, our differential Noether charge integrates to the
Wald-like entropy formula proposed by Tachikawa in arXiv:hep-th/0611141.
