Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 25 / Tuesday, February 8, 2005 / Notices
The regulations of the Commission
(25 CFR part 514), as amended, provide
for a system of fee assessment and
payment that is self-administered by
gaming operations. Pursuant to those
regulations, the Commission is required
to adopt and communicate assessment
rates; the gaming operations are
required to apply those rates to their
revenues, compute the fees to be paid,
report the revenues, and remit the fees
to the Commission on a quarterly basis.
The regulations of the Commission
and the preliminary rate being adopted
today are effective for calendar year
2005. Therefore, all gaming operations
within the jurisdiction of the
Commission are required to selfadminister the provisions of these
regulations and report and pay any fees
that are due to the Commission By
March 31, 2005.

Jkt 205001
directed by the Antarctic Conservation
Act of 1978 (Pub. L. 95–541), as
amended by the Antarctic Science,
Tourism and Conservation Act of 1996,
has developed regulations for the
establishment of a permit system for
various activities in Antarctica and
designation of certain animals and
certain geographic areas requiring
special protection. The regulations
establish such a permit system to
designate Antarctic Specially Protected
Areas.
Description of Permit Modification
Requested: The Foundation issued a
permit (2004–009) to Dr. Robert L.
Pitman on January 15, 2004. The issued
permit allows the applicant to collect
biopsy samples (size of a pencil eraser)
of skin and tissue from up to 200 Killer
Whales (Orcinus orca). These samples
help to determine the taxonomic status
of the three different morphotypes of
Killer Whales observed in the Antarctic.
The applicant requests a modification
to his permit to extend his permit for
one year, to cover the full extent of his
grant. In addition he wishes to collect
skin and tissue samples from up to 10
Minke (Balaenoptera bonaerensis) and 5
Arnoux’s beaked whales (Berardius
arnouxii). The applicant during his
research has identified a species of
diatoms on the Killer Whales and is
interested to see if the same species of
diatoms are present on other whales in
the southern Ross Sea. If the diatoms are
different from then the samples could
provide additional evidence that there is
more than one species of Killer Whale
in Antarctica.
Location: Waters surrounding
Antarctica, including the Ross Sea.
Dates: April 1, 2005, to March 31,
2006.

Environmental Officer, Office of Polar
Programs.
