SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DATES:
Navigation and Vessel Inspection
Circular (NVIC) 03–07
On January 25, 2007, the Coast Guard
and Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) issued a joint
final rule ‘‘Transportation Worker
Identification Credential
Implementation in the Maritime Sector;
Hazardous Material Endorsement for a
Commercial Driver’s License,’’ referred
to as the TWIC final rule. See 72 FR
3492. That rule, which became effective
in major part on March 26, 2007, made
significant changes to 33 CFR Chapter I
Subchapter H, 46 CFR Chapter I
Subchapter B, and 49 CFR Chapter XII
Subchapter D. The final rule
implements requirements under the
Maritime Transportation Security Act of
2002, as amended by the Security and
Accountability for Every Port Act of
2006 (SAFE Port Act), which requires,
among other things, credentialed
merchant mariners and workers with
unescorted access to secure areas of
vessels and facilities to undergo a
security threat assessment and receive a
biometric credential, known as a
Transportation Worker Identification
Credential (TWIC).
The Coast Guard has prepared NVIC
03–07, ‘‘Guidance for the
Implementation of the Transportation
Worker Identification Credential
Program in the Maritime Sector,’’ to
provide guidance to transportation
workers, owners and operators, and
merchant mariners on implementation

Frm 00034

of the new requirements. The
information in this NVIC details the
enrollment and issuance process,
provides guidance for successful
execution of compliance requirements,
provides clarification of the regulations
found in 33 CFR Parts 101 to 106 and
49 CFR Parts 1515, 1540, 1570 and
1572, and includes a more detailed
discussion of the actions required by
those regulations, with examples, to
increase understanding and promote
nationwide consistency. These
guidelines are intended to help industry
comply with the new regulations and
the Coast Guard Captains of the Port
(COTP) implement the TWIC Program.
Availability
NVIC 03–07 is available in the docket
for this notice at those places indicated
under ADDRESSES above. It is also

from severe storms, tornadoes, and flooding
during the period June 16–18, 2007, is of
sufficient severity and magnitude to warrant

other forms of assistance under the Stafford
Act that you deem appropriate. Consistent
with the requirement that Federal assistance
be supplemental, any Federal funds provided

and Other Needs Assistance will be limited
to 75 percent of the total eligible costs. If
Public Assistance is later warranted, Federal
funds provided under that program will also
be limited to 75 percent of the total eligible
costs, except for any particular projects that
are eligible for a higher Federal cost-sharing
percentage under the FEMA Public
Assistance Pilot Program instituted pursuant
to 6 U.S.C. 777. Further, you are authorized
to make changes to this declaration to the

anticipates taking approximately 1.55
acre (ac) of Florida scrub-jay
(Alphelocoma coerulescens)—occupied
habitat incidental to constructing a
single-family-home subdivision in
Brevard County, Florida (project). The
applicant’s HCP describes the mitigation
and minimization measures the
applicant proposes to address the effects
of the project to the scrub-jay.
DATES: We must receive any written
comments on the ITP application and
HCP on or before August 9, 2007.
ADDRESSES: If you wish to review the
application and HCP, you may write the
Field Supervisor at our Jacksonville
Field Office, 6620 Southpoint Drive
South, Suite 310, Jacksonville, FL

Background
The Florida scrub-jay (scrub-jay) is
found exclusively in peninsular Florida
and is restricted to xeric uplands
(predominately in oak-dominated
scrub). Increasing urban and agricultural
development has resulted in habitat loss
and fragmentation, which have
adversely affected the distribution and
numbers of scrub-jays.
The total estimated population is
between 7,000 and 11,000 individuals.
The decline in the number and
distribution of scrub-jays in east-central
Florida has been exacerbated by
tremendous urban growth in the past 50
years. Much of the historic commercial
and residential development has
occurred on the dry soils which
previously supported scrub-jay habitat.
Much of this area of Florida was settled
early because few wetlands restricted
urban and agricultural development.
Due to the effects of urban and
agricultural development over the past
100 years, much of the remaining scrubjay habitat is now relatively small and
isolated. What remains is largely
degraded due to the exclusion of fire,
which is needed to maintain xeric
uplands in conditions suitable for scrubjays.
