Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 98 / Tuesday, May 22, 2007 / Notices Permit 1605 Windward Environmental seeking a 5–year research permit to take juvenile PS Chinook salmon and steelhead. The purpose of the research is to characterize chemical concentrations in fish and crab tissues following activities designed to remediate contaminated sediments in the Lower Duwamish Waterway and East Waterway Operable Unit of the Harbor Island Superfund Sites. The long-term goal is to help determine if the remediation activities have successfully reduced the concentrations of chemical contaminants in animal tissues. An additional goal is to characterize the Lower Duwamish Waterway environment and determine if contaminated sediments continue to pose risks to the organisms living in it and humans using it. The applicant proposes to capture fish and crabs using trawl nets and traps. Listed fish would be captured, identified, enumerated, and released. The applicant does not intend to kill any listed species, but a small number may die as an unintended result of the activities. Permit 1609 R2 Resource Consultants, Inc. is requesting a 2–year research permit to take juvenile PS Chinook salmon and steelhead. The purpose of this study is to determine the relative abundance of juvenile salmonids and map their distribution in the Sultan River, Puget Sound, Washington. Information gathered by this study would be used to help develop the Henry M. Jackson Hydroelectric Project management plan. The study would thus help resource managers design water management strategies and habitat protection/ restoration projects to benefit salmonids. The applicant proposes to conduct snorkeling and electrofishing surveys for juvenile salmonids. Supplemental sampling may also be conducted using minnow traps. The fish would be captured, anesthetized, measured, checked for hatchery marks, allowed to recover, and released. The applicant does not intend to kill any listed species, but a small number may die as an unintended result of the activities. jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES Permit 1611 The Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs Reservation, Oregon (CTWSRO) are seeking a 5–year permit to annually capture MCR steelhead during the course of research directed at non-listed fall Chinook salmon in the lower Deschutes River, Oregon. The information gained from this action VerDate Aug<31>2005 19:44 May 21, 2007 Jkt 211001 would be used to determine the status of the fall Chinook stocks in the Columbia River basin and that information, in turn, would be used to set appropriate harvest levels and inform other management actions relating to fall Chinook salmon both in the United States and Canada. The research would benefit listed steelhead by helping reduce the number of them being incidentally caught during Chinook harvest. The CTWSRO would capture the fish using an 8–inch (12.7 cm) stretch-mesh gillnet placed in the lower Deschutes River (Rkm 32). Any captured MCR steelhead would be measured, assessed as to their condition, and released immediately. The CTWSRO does not intend to kill any of the fish being captured, but a small number may die as an unintended result of the activities. Permit 1612 Washington Trout is seeking a 5–year permit to capture juvenile UCR Chinook and steelhead during the course of research designed to generate data on (1) the relationships among physical and ecological processes governing aquatic food webs; (2) juvenile salmonid habitat use, growth, and survival; and (3) population structure and dynamics among resident salmonids reintroduced to the influence of anadromy. The research would take place in Icicle Creek, Chiwaukum Creek, and the Chiwiwa River, Washington. The research would benefit fish by increasing our knowledge about the ecology of native resident and migratory salmonids in the upper Columbia basin, and thereby help managers make better decisions regarding salmonid recovery. The fish would be captured using a variety of methods: traps, nets, electrofishing and angling. Some fish would be captured, measured, and released, others would be tagged with passive integrated transponders and tissue-sampled before being released. Washington Trout does not intend to kill any of the fish being captured, but a small number may die as an unintended result of the activities. This notice is provided pursuant to section 10(c) of the ESA. NMFS will evaluate the applications, associated documents, and comments submitted to determine whether the application meets the requirements of section 10(a) of the ESA and Federal regulations. The final permit decisions will not be made until after the end of the 30–day comment period. NMFS will publish notice of its final action in the Federal Register.
