ACTION:
SUMMARY: The National Science
Foundation gives notice of the
availability of a Finding of No
Significant Impact for proposed
activities in the Arctic Ocean.
The Office of Polar Programs (OPP)
has prepared an Environmental
Assessment of a marine geophysical
study by the Coast Guard cutter Healy
in the western Canada Basin, Chukchi
Borderland and Mendeleev Ridge, July–
August–September 2006. Given the
United States Arctic Program’s mission
to support polar research, the proposed
action is expected to result in
substantial benefits to science.
Copies of the Finding of No
Significant Impact and the
Environmental Assessment are available
upon request from: Dr. Polly A. Penhale,
National Science Foundation, Office of
Polar Programs, 4201 Wilson Blvd.,
Suite 755, Arlington, VA 22230.
Telephone: (703) 292–8033.
ADDRESSES:
The
National Science Foundation prepared a
draft Environmental Impact Assessment
(EA) for a marine geophysical survey in
the western Canada Basin, Chukchi
Borderland and Mendeleev Ridge and
solicited public comments (Federal
Register: March 8, 2006, Vol. 71, No. 45,
Page 11681). The National Science
Foundation has prepared a Finding of
No Significant Impact (FONSI) based on
this EA, in accordance with CEQ
regulations § 1500–1508 and 45 CFR
part 640. It was determined that the
proposed activity would not result in a
significant impact on the quality of the
human environment within the meaning
of the National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA) of 1969. Therefore, a FONSI
was issued, and no environmental
impact statement is required.

Environmental Assessment entitled,

Geophysical Survey by the USCG Healy
