research in Central California. At that
time, NMFS determined that conducting
the seabird research would not have a
significant impact on the quality of the
human environment and issued a
Finding of No Significant Impact
(FONSI) and, therefore, it was not
necessary to prepare an environmental
impact statement for the issuance of an
IHA to PRBO for this activity. In 2008,
NMFS prepared a supplemental EA
(SEA) titled ‘‘Supplemental
Environmental Assessment For The
Issuance Of An Incidental Harassment
Authorization To Take Marine
Mammals By Harassment Incidental To
Conducting Seabird And Pinniped
Research In Central California And
Environmental Assessment For The
Continuation Of Scientific Research On
Pinnipeds In California Under Scientific
Research Permit 373–1868–00,’’ to
address new available information
regarding the effects of PRBO’s seabird
and pinniped research activities that
may have cumulative impacts to the
physical and biological environment. At
that time, NMFS concluded that
issuance of an IHA for the December
2008 through 2009 season would not
significantly affect the quality of the
human environment and issued a
FONSI for the 2008 SEA regarding
PRBO’s activities. In conjunction with
this year’s application, NMFS has again
reviewed the 2007 EA and the 2008 SEA
and determined that there are no new
direct, indirect or cumulative impacts to
the human and natural environment
associated with the IHA requiring
evaluation in a supplemental EA and
NMFS, therefore, reaffirms the 2008
FONSI. A copy of the EA, SEA, and the
NMFS FONSI for this activity is
available upon request (see ADDRESSES).
Authorization
jlentini on DSKJ8SOYB1PROD with NOTICES
As a result of these determinations,
NMFS has issued an IHA to PRBO to
conduct seabird and pinniped research
on Southeast Farallon Island, West End
˜
Island, Ano Nuevo Island, and Point
Reyes National Seashore in central
California from February 19, 2010
through February 18, 2011, provided the
previously mentioned mitigation,
monitoring, and reporting requirements
are incorporated.
