Pursuant to these regulations, NMFS
has issued an LOA to El Paso and EOG
Resources. Issuance of the LOAs is
based on a finding made in the
preamble to the final rule that the total
taking by these activities (with
monitoring, mitigation, and reporting
measures) will result in no more than a
negligible impact on the affected species
or stock(s) of marine mammals and will
not have an unmitigable adverse impact
on subsistence uses. NMFS will review
reports to ensure that the applicants are
in compliance with meeting the
requirements contained in the
implementing regulations and LOA,
including monitoring, mitigation, and
reporting requirements.
