(MMPA; 16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.), the
regulations governing the taking and
importing of marine mammals (50 CFR
part 216), the Endangered Species Act of
1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531
et seq.), the regulations governing the
taking, importing, and exporting of
endangered and threatened species (50
CFR 222–226), and the Fur Seal Act of
1966, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1151 et
seq.).
The applicant proposes to conduct
research on the Western distinct
population segment (wDPS) and Eastern
distinct population segment (eDPS) of
Steller sea lions in Alaska, Washington,
Oregon, and California to measure
population status, vital rates, foraging
ecology, habitat requirements, and
effects of natural and anthropogenic
factors pursuant to fulfilling the NMFS’
legal requirements under the MMPA
and ESA. Annually in the wDPS, up to
66,000 Steller sea lions may be exposed
to aerial surveys by manned or
unmanned aircraft, 7,000 to rookerybased activities, and 10,500 to other
incidental activities. Up to 595 Steller
sea lions could be captured, with up to
345 having blood, skin, and swab
samples collected, 395 hot-branded, and
up to 145 blubber biopsied, 345 vibrissa
removed, and 320 subject to stomach
intubation. Instruments will be attached
on up to 45, and 245 would receive a
non-permanent mark if not hot-branded.
Annually in the eDPS, up to 46,000 sea
lions may be exposed to aerial surveys,
and 13,100 to incidental activities. Up
to 40 adult males could be captured,
and have blood, hair, and skin samples
collected, hot-brand and flipper tags
applied, and have an instrument
attached. Up to 200 pups would be
captured, hot-branded flipper-tagged,
swabbed, and skin biopsied, with 50
also having blood and hair samples
collected. Non-target species that may
be taken incidentally include northern
fur seals (Callorhinus ursinus) in
Alaska, California sea lions (Zalophus
californianus) and northern elephant
seals (Mirounga angustirostris) in
Washington, Oregon, and California,
and harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) in all
states. Samples may be exported and reimported. The requested duration of the
permit is five years.
In compliance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42
U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), an initial
determination has been made that the
effects of the activities proposed are
consistent with the Preferred
Alternative in the Final Programmatic
Environmental Impact Statement for
Steller Sea Lion and Northern Fur Seal
Research (NMFS 2007), and that
issuance of the permit would not have
