Jkt 235001
Notice is hereby given that
NOAA’s Office of Science and
Technology, Silver Spring, MD,
(Brandon Southall, Ph.D.—Principal
Investigator) has been issued a minor
amendment to Scientific Research
Permit No. 14534–02.
ADDRESSES: The amendment and related
documents are available for review
upon written request or by appointment
in the Permits and Conservation
Division, Office of Protected Resources,
NMFS, 1315 East-West Highway, Room
13705, Silver Spring, MD 20910; phone
(301) 427–8401; fax (301) 713–0376.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Courtney Smith or Howard Goldstein,
(301) 427–8401.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
requested amendment has been granted
under the authority of the Marine
Mammal Protection Act of 1972, as
amended (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.) and
the regulations governing the taking and
importing of marine mammals (50 CFR
part 216), the Endangered Species Act of
PO 00000
Frm 00012
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
41485
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 parts 222 through 226).
The original permit (No. 14534),
issued on July 2, 2010 (75 FR 39665)
through June 30, 2015 authorized
research on a variety of marine
mammals, and involves temporarily
attaching individual recording tags to
measure vocalization, diving and other
behaviors, and physiological parameters
before, during, and after carefully
controlled exposures of sound in
conventional playback experiments. The
research is focused in the waters within
the U.S. Navy’s Southern California
Range Complex, and primarily near the
vicinity of San Clemente Island. A
minor amendment to the permit (No.
14534–01) was issued on August 30,
2010 to combine long-beaked common
dolphins and short-beaked common
dolphins into a single ‘‘unidentified
common dolphin’’ category for takes by
harassment incidental to the playbacks.
A second, major amendment (No.
14534–02) was issued on May 14, 2012
(77 FR 33199) that added endangered
humpback whales (Megaptera
novaengliae) as an additional focal
species for tagging and intentional
exposure to sound playbacks with
associated behavioral observations. The
amendment also increased the number
of non-ESA listed minke whales
(Balaenoptera acutorostrata) and killer
whales (Orcinus orca) that may be
harassed annually.
The current minor amendment (No.
14534–03) extends the duration of the
permit through June 30, 2016, but does
not change any other terms or
conditions of the permit.
Dated: July 9, 2015.

Chief, Permits and Conservation Division,

Marine Fisheries Service.
