On
February 9, 2007, notice was published
in the Federal Register (72 FR 6222)
that an amendment of Permit No. 42–
1642–03, issued April 28, 2004 (69 FR
24586), had been requested by the
above-named organization. The
requested amendment has been granted
under the authority of the Marine
Mammal Protection Act of 1972, as
amended (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.), the
regulations governing the taking and
importing of marine mammals (50 CFR
part 216), the Endangered Species Act of
1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531
et seq.), the regulations governing the
taking, importing, and exporting of
endangered and threatened species (50
CFR 222–226), and the Fur Seal Act of
1966, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1151 et
seq.).
This permit amendment authorizes an
increase in the number of blood samples
that may be received, imported, or
exported. The increase is to
accommodate the availability of banked
serum samples from other institutions
for Brucella analysis. The amendment
(reflected in the new Permit No. 42–
1642–04) is effective until the expiration
date of the permit, October 15, 2007.
In compliance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42
U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), a final
determination has been made that the
activity proposed is categorically
excluded from the requirement to
prepare an environmental assessment or
environmental impact statement.
Issuance of this permit amendment, as
required by the ESA, was based on a
finding that such permit: (1) Was
applied for in good faith; (2) will not
operate to the disadvantage of such
endangered species; and (3) is
consistent with the purposes and
policies set forth in section 2 of the
ESA.
