vehicle was not seen or heard during the
launch window, and no sonic boom was
heard or recorded. None of the
monitored animals made any visible
movements outside of normal behavior
during or after the launch, and animals
continued to haul out at the site and
persist in high numbers immediately
after the launch. In summary, there was
no evidence of injury, mortality, or
abnormal behavior of the monitored
pinnipeds on SMI as a result of this
launch.
Atlas V DMSP–18
This launch occurred outside of the
harbor seal pupping season, and no
sonic boom greater than 1 psf was
predicted to impact SMI. Therefore, no
biological or acoustical monitoring was
required at VAFB or SMI. However, due
to an equipment malfunction during the
acoustic recording of the initial Atlas V
launch in March 2008, only an
incomplete acoustic profile was
obtained. Therefore, acoustic
monitoring of this second Atlas V
launch was performed. The results are
contained in the 2009 annual LOA
report (ManTech SRS Technologies,
2009).

Minuteman III GT–199 GM
Due to the Minuteman’s westward
launch trajectory, no sonic boom
modeling or launch monitoring was
required on SMI for this launch.
Additionally, no acoustic recordings
were required as noise from the
Minuteman launch vehicle has been
well quantified by measurements
performed for previous Minuteman
launches. However, since this launch
occurred during the harbor seal pupping
season on VAFB, biological monitoring
was required at VAFB. Diurnal
observations of harbor seals were
conducted at the Lion’s Head haul-out
site from June 26 through July 1, 2009.
The number of harbor seals observed
during the monitoring period ranged
from three to 11 seals. Post-launch
counts exceeded pre-launch counts. No
pups were seen during the launch
monitoring period. Additionally, no
seals were present within the video
recorder frame at the time of the launch.
In summary, there was no evidence of
injury, mortality, or abnormal behavior
in any monitored harbor seals on VAFB
resulting from this launch.
Authorization
The USAF complied with the
requirements of the 2009 LOA, and
NMFS has determined that the marine
mammal take resulting from the 2009
launches is within that analyzed in and
anticipated by the associated

regulations. Accordingly, NMFS has
issued a LOA to the 30th Space Wing,
USAF authorizing the take by
harassment of marine mammals
incidental to space vehicle and test
flight activities at VAFB. Issuance of
this LOA is based on findings described
in the preamble to the final rule (74 FR
6236, February 6, 2009) and supported
by information contained in VAFB’s
2009 annual report that the activities
described under this LOA will have a
negligible impact on marine mammal
stocks. The provision requiring that the
activity not have an unmitigable adverse
impact on the availability of the affected
species or stock for subsistence uses
does not apply for this action.
