whales due to data limitations and our
inability to develop density estimates.
Regardless, given the infrequent
occurrence of these species (or none at
all), NMFS believes that any take would
be significantly lower than those of
beluga whales.
While behavioral modifications,
including temporarily vacating the area
during the project period may be made
by these species to avoid the resultant
visual and acoustic disturbance, NMFS
nonetheless finds that this action would
result in no more than a negligible
impact on these marine mammal species
and/or stocks. NMFS also finds that the
proposed action will not have an
unmitigable adverse impact on the
availability of such species or stocks for
taking for subsistence uses.
In addition, no take by Level A
harassment (injury) or death is
anticipated or authorized, and
harassment takes should be at the
lowest level practicable due to
incorporation of the mitigation
measures described in this document.
Proposed Authorization
NMFS proposes to modify the UOCC
IHA to allow its seismic operations in
Upper Cook Inlet between September
and November, 2007, and to issue an
IHA to MOC for the potential
harassment of Cook Inlet beluga whales,
Pacific harbor seals, harbor porpoises,
Steller sea lions, and killer whales
incidental to conducting seismic
operations in Cook Inlet in Alaska,
provided the previously mentioned
mitigation, monitoring, and reporting
requirements are incorporated.
