Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 123 / Monday, June 27, 2011 / Notices
above. The request should set forth the
specific reasons why a hearing on this
application would be appropriate.
Kristy Beard or Amy Hapeman,
(301)427–8401.
The
subject permit is requested 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 222–226).
The applicant requests a five-year
permit to conduct research on
leatherback, loggerhead, green,
hawksbill, olive ridley, and Kemp’s
ridley sea turtles in the Atlantic Ocean,
Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean Sea and their
tributaries. The purpose of the research
is to evaluate modifications to
commercial fishing gear to mitigate sea
turtle interactions and capture under
two projects, Project A (Turtle Excluder
Device Evaluations in Atlantic and Gulf
of Mexico Trawl Fisheries) and Project
B (Modifications to Longline Fisheries
Gear). These evaluations and
subsequent gear modifications could
help to reduce incidental turtle bycatch
in the gear types studied and provide
data to improve stock assessments,
assess the impact of anthropogenic
activities, and better manage and
recover these species. Annual requested
take numbers under Project A are: 225
loggerheads, 98 Kemp’s ridleys, 82
leatherbacks, 47 greens, 33 hawksbills,
33 olive ridleys, and 85 unidentified/
hybrid turtles. A subset of these animals
would be captured during trawl
research; the rest of the turtles would be
captured within fisheries managed by
another Federal authority. Annual
requested take numbers under Project B
are: 28 loggerheads, 3 Kemp’s ridleys,
30 leatherbacks, 4 greens, 4 hawksbills,
3 olive ridleys, and 3 unidentified/
hybrid turtles. All animals would be
handled, measured, weighed,
photographed, flipper tagged, passive
integrated transponder tagged, skin
biopsied, and released.
