On March
12, 2010, notice was published in the
Federal Register (75 FR 11862) that a
request for a scientific research permit
to take shortnose sturgeon had been
submitted by the above-named
individual. The requested permit has
been issued under the authority of the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)
and the regulations governing the
taking, importing, and exporting of
endangered and threatened species (50
CFR parts 222–226).
The applicant is authorized to
conduct a five-year scientific study
determining the presence, abundance
and distribution of shortnose sturgeon
in North Carolina rivers (Chowan,
Roanoke, and Cape Fear) and estuaries
(Albemarle Sound). The permit
authorizes non-lethal sampling with
anchored gill nets, capturing up to 15
shortnose sturgeon annually from the
Chowan and Cape Fear River Basins and
Albemarle Sound. Similar activities
capturing up to 25 shortnose sturgeon
from the Roanoke River Basin will also
be conducted each year. A sub-set of up
to five adults or sub-adults from each
river and Albemarle Sound will be
anesthetized and implanted with
internal sonic transmitters annually.
Each will be captured, measured,
weighed, sampled for genetic tissue
analysis, and PIT tagged. Tracking
sturgeon at fixed receiver stations will
take place providing information about
movement, seasonal distribution and
habitat use.
As required by the ESA, issuance of
this permit was based on a finding that
such permit: (1) was applied for in good
faith; (2) will not operate to the
disadvantage of such endangered
species; and (3) is consistent with the
purposes and policies set forth in
section 2 of the ESA.
