SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
RIN 0648–XC078
The Advisory Committee on
Commercial Remote Sensing (ACCRES)
was renewed on March 14, 2012.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the provisions of the
Federal Advisory Committee Act, 5
U.S.C. App 2, and the General Services
Administration (GSA) rule on Federal
Advisory Committee Management, 41
CFR Part 101–6, and after consultation
with GSA, the Secretary of Commerce
has determined the renewal of the
Advisory Committee on Commercial
Remote Sensing (ACCRES) is in the
public interest in connection with the
performance of duties imposed on the
Department by law.
The Committee was first established
in May 2002, to advise the Under
Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and
Atmosphere on matters relating to the
U.S. commercial remote-sensing
industry and National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration’s activities
to carry out the responsibilities of the
Department of Commerce set forth in set
forth in the 51 U.S.C. 60121, et seq, the
National and Commercial Space
Programs Act and 15 CFR part 960 the
Land Remote Sensing Policy Act of 1992
(15 U.S.C. 5621–5625).
The Committee consists of generally
not more than 15 members serving in a
representative capacity. Each of these
members shall be appointed by the
Under Secretary to assure a balanced
representation among remote sensing
satellite operators, private users of data,
academia and researchers.
The Committee will function solely as
an advisory body and in compliance
with provisions of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act. Copies of the
Committee’s revised Charter has been
filed with the appropriate committees of
Congress and with the Library of
Congress.

Notice is hereby given that
Raymond Carthy, University of Florida,
Florida Cooperative Fish and Wildlife
Research Unit, 117 Newins-Ziegler Hall,
P.O. Box 110450, Gainesville, FL 32611,
has applied in due form for a permit to
take green (Chelonia mydas), loggerhead
(Caretta caretta), hawksbill
(Eretmochelys imbricata), and Kemp’s
ridley (Lepidochelys kempii) sea turtles
for the purposes of scientific research.
DATES: Written, telefaxed, or email
comments must be received on or before
August 1, 2012.
ADDRESSES: The application and related
documents are available for review by
selecting Records Open for Public
Comment from the Features box on the

SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00013
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 9990
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 continue long-term research
on the demographics and movements of
green, loggerhead, hawksbill, and
Kemp’s ridley sea turtles off the
northwest coast of Florida. The
objectives of the research are to (1)
obtain information on sea turtle ecology
and health status; (2) determine the
genetic origin of sea turtle populations
in the region; (3) monitor turtle foraging
habits; and (4) address fine-scale and
broad-scale temporal and spatial
patterns of sea turtle use and movement
patterns. Researchers would capture sea
turtles annually by strike net, tangle net,
dip net or hand capture. Captured sea
turtles would be measured, weighed,
passive integrated transponder tagged,
flipper tagged, epibiota sampled, tissue
sampled, blood sampled, gastric
lavaged, carapace marked,
photographed, and released. A subset of
sea turtles would be fitted with
telemetry tags—either a satellite tag or
an acoustic tag with an accelerometer.
