individuals observed, frequency of
observation, and any behavioral changes
and the context of the changes relative
to construction activities shall also be
included in the annual report.
Additional information that will be
recorded during construction and
contained in the reports include: date
and time of marine mammal detections
(visually or acoustically), weather
conditions, species identification,
approximate distance from the source,
activity of the vessel or at the
construction site when a marine
mammal is sighted, and whether
thrusters were in use and, if so, how
many at the time of the sighting.
Endangered Species Act (ESA)
On January 12, 2007, NMFS
concluded consultation with MARAD
and USCG under section 7 of the ESA
on the proposed construction and
operation of the Neptune LNG facility
and issued a Biological Opinion. The
finding of that consultation was that the
construction and operation of the
Neptune LNG terminal may adversely
affect, but is not likely to jeopardize, the
continued existence of northern right,
humpback, and fin whales, and is not
likely to adversely affect sperm, sei, or
blue whales and Kemp’s ridley,
loggerhead, green, or leatherback sea
turtles. Issuance of this IHA will not
have any impacts beyond those
analyzed in that consultation.
hsrobinson on PROD1PC76 with NOTICES
National Environmental Policy Act
MARAD and the USCG released a
Final EIS/Environmental Impact Report
(EIR) for the proposed Neptune LNG
Deepwater Port. A notice of availability
was published by MARAD on November
2, 2006 (71 FR 64606). The Final EIS/
EIR provides detailed information on
the proposed project facilities,
construction methods, and analysis of
potential impacts on marine mammals.
The Final EIS/EIR is incorporated as
part of the MMPA record of decision
(ROD) for this action.
NMFS was a cooperating agency in
the preparation of the Draft and Final
EISs based on a Memorandum of
Understanding related to the Licensing
of Deepwater Ports entered into by the
U.S. Department of Commerce along
with 10 other government agencies. On
June 3, 2008, NMFS adopted the USCG
and MARAD FEIS and issued a separate
ROD for issuance of authorizations
pursuant to sections 101(a)(5)(A) and
(D) of the MMPA for the construction
and operation of the Neptune LNG Port
facility.

Preliminary Determinations
DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
NMFS has preliminarily determined
that the impact of construction and
operation of the Neptune Port Project
may result, at worst, in a temporary
modification in behavior of small
numbers of certain species of marine
mammals that may be in close
proximity to the Neptune LNG facility
and associated pipeline during its
construction and operation. These
activities are expected to result in some
local short-term displacement, resulting
in no more than a negligible impact on
the affected species or stocks of marine
mammals. The provision requiring that
the activity not have an unmitigable
adverse impact on the availability of the
affected species or stock for subsistence
use does not apply for this proposed
action as there is no such uses of these
species or stocks in the proposed project
area.
This preliminary determination is
supported by measures described earlier
in this document under ‘‘Proposed
Mitigation and Monitoring Measures,’’
‘‘Reporting Requirements,’’ and
MARAD’s ROD (and NMFS’ Biological
Opinion on this action). As a result of
the described mitigation measures, no
take by injury or death is requested,
anticipated, or proposed to be
authorized, and the potential for
temporary or permanent hearing
impairment is very unlikely due to the
relatively low sound source levels (and
consequently small zone of impact for
hearing-related effects). The likelihood
of such effects would be avoided
through the incorporation of the
proposed shut-down mitigation
measures mentioned in this document.
While the number of marine mammals
that may be harassed will depend on the
distribution and abundance of marine
mammals in the vicinity of the Port
facility during construction and
operation, the estimated number of
marine mammals to be harassed is
small.
Foreign-Trade Zones Board
Proposed Authorization
Economic Development Administration
As a result of these preliminary
determinations, NMFS proposes to issue
an IHA to Neptune for the taking (by
Level B harassment only) incidental to
construction and operation of the
Neptune Port provided the previously
mentioned mitigation, monitoring, and
reporting requirements are incorporated.

[Order No. 1614]
Termination of Foreign-Trade Subzone
22G; Sanofi-Aventis, Des Plaines, IL
Pursuant to its authority under the
Foreign-Trade Zones Act of June 18,
1934, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a–81u),
and the Foreign-Trade Zones Board
Regulations (15 CFR Part 400), the
Foreign-Trade Zones Board (the Board)
adopts the following Order:
Whereas, on July 20, 1994, the
Foreign-Trade Zones Board issued a
grant of authority to the Illinois
International Port District authorizing
the establishment of Foreign-Trade
Subzone 22G at the Sanofi-Aventis
facility, Des Plaines, Illinois (Board
Order 700, 59 FR 38431, 07/27/94);
Whereas, the Illinois International
Port District has advised the Board that
zone procedures are no longer needed at
the facility and requested voluntary
termination of Subzone 22G (FTZ
Docket 39–2008);
Whereas, the request has been
reviewed by the FTZ Staff and U.S.
Customs and Border Protection officials,
and approval has been recommended;
Now, therefore, the Foreign-Trade
Zones Board terminates the subzone
status of Subzone 22G, effective this
date.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 24th day of
April, 2009.
