adults and from 208 to 288 weaners
(MMCG and SAIC, 2011).
Harbor seals were noted in the
nearshore waters on two separate days.
Numbers varied from one to four. From
one to two California sea lions were also
seen in the nearshore waters on April 13
and 16. A juvenile gray whale, likely the
same animal, was seen between Prince
Island and Cuyler Harbor on April 14
and 15 (MMCG and SAIC, 2011b).
Acoustic monitoring was also
conducted for this launch. The
unweighted peak was 109.4 dB re 20
mPa at 2.66 Hz. The frequency spectrum
of the acoustic energy was
predominantly low frequency, with
unweighted peak levels exceeding 80 dB
re 20 mPa below 500 Hz. The highest
energy was below 100 Hz.
In summary, there was no evidence of
injury, mortality, or abnormal behavior
of the monitored pinnipeds on VAFB or
SMI as a result of this launch.

Delta II Launch (June 10, 2011)
During the pre-launch monitoring
period, from June 6–9, counts of harbor
seals, near the Spur Road trailhead on
VAFB, ranged from zero to six,
including one pup on June 8. No seals
were seen on launch day, on the postlaunch survey days (June 11–12), and
during the follow-up survey on June 17.
Tides were relatively high during the
period June 10–12, submerging the most
desirable haul-out sites. Although a
remote video camera was set up near the
Spur Road trailhead for this launch, no
seals were recorded before, during, or
after the launch. In summary, there was
no evidence of injury, mortality, or
abnormal behavior of the monitored
pinnipeds on VAFB as a result of this
launch.
Minuteman III Launch (June 22, 2011)
Because this launch occurred during
the harbor seal pupping season on
VAFB, biological monitoring at VAFB
was required. Pre-launch monitoring
was conducted on June 18, 20, and 21,
2011. Between three and seven adult
harbor seals were noted. From three to
seven animals were noted about two
hours after the launch on June 22. A
post-launch count, conducted on June
23, revealed from eight to nine animals.
A follow-up survey, in which two to
four animals were noted, was made on
July 7. No harbor seal pups were seen.
In summary, there was no evidence of
injury, mortality, or abnormal behavior
of the monitored pinnipeds on VAFB as
a result of this launch.
boom models predicted overpressures in
excess of 1 psf there. Monitoring was
conducted at a section of east Adam’s
Cove. California sea lions, northern
elephant seals and northern fur seals
were present. Numbers of California sea
lions ranged from 211 to 1,105 animals.
These numbers rose on the day of the
launch and during the two days
afterwards. Numbers of northern fur
seals declined slightly during the same
period, probably displaced by the sea
lions. Their numbers ranged from 73 to
315. Elephant seal numbers ranged from
56 to 127.
No reactions were noted on the part
of the sea lions and elephant seals,
either from the launch, which was
plainly visible during the predawn
hours, or from the sonic boom, which
was heard at 0253 hours. Six adult fur
seals raised their heads in response to
the sonic boom, but settled back down
after 2–4 minutes. In summary, there
was no evidence of injury, mortality, or
abnormal behavior in any monitored
seals resulting from this launch.
Authorization
The USAF complied with the
requirements of the 2011 LOA, and
NMFS has determined that the marine
mammal take resulting from the 2011
launches is within that analyzed in and
anticipated by the associated
regulations. Accordingly, NMFS has
issued a LOA to the 30th Space Wing,
USAF, authorizing the take by
harassment of marine mammals
incidental to space vehicle and test
flight activities at VAFB. Issuance of
this LOA is based on findings described
in the preamble to the final rule (74 FR
6236, February 6, 2009) and supported
by information contained in VAFB’s
2011 annual report that the activities
described under this LOA will have a
negligible impact on marine mammal
stocks. The provision requiring that the
activity not have an unmitigable adverse
impact on the availability of the affected
species or stock for subsistence uses
does not apply for this action.

Summary of Information Collection
The DoD will use a streamlined, userfriendly, and secure Web site to obtain
contractor work force information,
based on the Army system located at
https://cmra.DoD.mil/. This Web site
allows contractors the option of entering
their data directly into the Web site via
short drop-down menus or batch
loading data based on formatted
spreadsheets.
The information requested, such as
the Reporting Period, Contract Number,
Task/Delivery Order Number, Customer
Name and Address, Contracting Office
Name and Address, Federal Supply
Class or Service Code, Contractor Name
and Address, Value of Contract
Instrument, and the Number and Value
of Direct Labor Hours will be used to
facilitate the accurate identification of
the function performed and to facilitate
estimate the reliability of the data.
The Direct Labor Hours are requested
for use in calculating contractor
manpower equivalents. This
information is reported directly from the
contractor because this is the most
credible data source.
Each contractor may determine their
cost for submitting information on the
Contractor Manpower Reporting System
Web site. Given the streamlined menu
of data requested and the user-friendly
Web site for submitting the data, the
actual costs for reporting this
information to date have been minimal.
The cost elements can include the manhours spent entering the data, manhours spent configuring current
systems, and the man-hours spent
collecting the data. The Army has found
