SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March
12, 2010, notice was published in the
Federal Register (75 FR 11863) that a
request for a scientific research permit
to take sea turtles 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 permit authorizes tests of
modified large mesh (> 5 inches)
commercial gillnets targeting southern
flounder (Paralichthys lethostigma) in
shallow waters of Core Sound, North
Carolina. The objective of the research
is to determine if gear modifications can
eliminate or reduce sea turtle bycatch.
Two contracted commercial gillnet
vessels will conduct a total of 60 fishing
trips, setting five matched (control vs.
experimental) sets of gillnets each day.
Each matched set would consist of 100
yards of control net (gillnet without
illuminated lights) and 100 yards of
experimental net (gillnet with
illuminated lights), for a total of 1,000
yards of net a day. With the exception
of illuminated, green Lindgen-Pitman
Electralume lights, the gillnets will be
identical in all other respects (e.g.,
twine material/size; hanging ration;
stretch mesh). Turtles will be identified
to species, measured, photographed,
and flipper and passive integrated
transponder tagged before released
beyond the fishing area. Any comatose
or debilitated turtles will be transported
to a rehabilitation center. The permit
authorizes capture of 18 Kemp’s ridley
(Lepidochelys kempii), 15 loggerhead
(Caretta caretta), 31 green (Chelonia
mydas), 2 hawksbill (Eretmochelys
imbricata), and 2 leatherback
(Dermochelys coriacea) sea turtles over
the life of the permit. Of the captured
turtles, 5 Kemp’s ridleys, 5 loggerheads,
15 greens, 2 hawksbills, and 2
leatherbacks may be mortalities. The
permit is valid through December 31,
2012.
Issuance of this permit, as required by
the ESA, was based on a finding that
