ADDRESSES:
Harmful Interference/Take. This
application is to allow for the unintentional and unexpected brief, minor
disturbance to Antarctic birds and
marine mammals at breeding, molting,
and terrestrial, fast-ice, and sea-ice haulout sites at various sub-Antarctic
(within geographic coverage area of the
Antarctic Treaty) and Antarctic
locations during observational research
to document several aspects of acoustic
and non-acoustic behavior and ecology.
Research would be conducted using
remote-controlled aerial platforms (i.e.,
quad-copters and hex-copters) equipped
with small high-resolution cameras to
document distribution, dispersion,
habitat use, and abundance of seals and
seabirds whenever conditions permit.
These aerial sorties will be launched at
least 50 to 100m from any wildlife
should not be detectable visually or
acoustically by wildlife during their
operation. Flight altitudes would be 100
m or higher. Photographs and audio
recordings also would be collected on
the ground. No Antarctic Specially
Protected Areas (ASPA) would be
entered in pursuit of this research.
Research locations would be accessed
from tour ships as part of their prescheduled landings and is therefore
focused on visitor sites.
