mitigation and monitoring measures,
NMFS preliminarily finds that
operation, including repair and
maintenance activities, of the Neptune
Port will result in the incidental take of
small numbers of marine mammals, by
Level B harassment only, and that the
total taking from Neptune’s proposed
activiites will have a negligible impact
on the affected species or stocks.
Impact on Availability of Affected
Species or Stock for Taking for
Subsistence Uses
There are no relevant subsistence uses
of marine mammals implicated by this
action.
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.
On March 2, 2010, MARAD and
USCG sent a letter to NMFS requesting
reinitiation of the section 7
consultation. MARAD and USCG
determined that certain routine planned
operations and maintenance activities,
inspections, surveys, and unplanned
repair work on the Neptune Deepwater
Port pipelines and flowlines, as well as
any other Neptune Deepwater Port
component (including buoys, risers/
umbilicals, mooring systems, and subsea manifolds), may constitute a
modification not previously considered
in the 2007 Biological Opinion.
Construction of the Port facility will be
completed by summer 2010, and,
therefore, is no longer part of the
proposed action. This consultation will
be concluded prior to a determination
on the issuance of this IHA.

National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA)
MARAD and the USCG released a
Final EIS/Environmental Impact Report
(EIR) for the proposed Neptune LNG
Deepwater Port (see ADDRESSES). 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.
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
Record of Decision 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.
Proposed Authorization
As a result of these preliminary
determinations, NMFS proposes to
authorize the take of marine mammals
incidental to port commissioning and
operations, including repair and
maintenance activities at the Neptune
Deepwater Port, provided the previously
mentioned mitigation, monitoring, and
reporting requirements are incorporated.
