SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Science Foundation, as directed by the Antarctic Conservation Act of 1978 (Pub. L. 95–541), as amended by the Antarctic Science, Tourism and Conservation Act of 1996, has developed regulations for the establishment of a permit system for various activities in Antarctica and designation of certain animals and certain geographic areas a requiring special protection. The regulations establish such a permit system to designate Antarctic Specially Protected Areas. Description of Permit Modification Requested: The Foundation issued a waste permit (ACA 2014–007) to Daniel McGrath from Earth Vision Trust/ Lindblad Expeditions on October 23, 2013. The issued permit allows the applicant, Earth Vision Trust, to install a maximum of 10 cameras distributed between 5 sites that are often visited by tourists. No more than 2 cameras are installed at any one site. Cameras are placed in such a way so as to not disrupt wildlife. Cameras are secured using 6–8 rock bolts drilled into rock outcrops. Each camera is powered by a 10w solar panel and a sealed 12 volt 55 AH gel battery. The batteries are housed in a leak proof plastic case. The cameras will remain deployed for 5 years total and will be completely removed (including bolts and power sources) at the conclusion of the project. Each camera is visited every 1–2 years to retrieve data, make necessary repairs, and remove non-functioning equipment. The cameras are used to measure ice velocity and monitor the calving front of numerous outlet glaciers. The data will help advance scientific knowledge on the mechanics and pace of glacial retreat.
