SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Foundation issued a permit (ACA 2011– 002) to David Ainley on May 28, 2010.

A recent modification to this permit, dated November 12, 2015, permitted the applicant to extend the permitted activities for one additional year so that the permit now expires on August 31, 2016. Now the applicant proposes a permit modification to add two named agents and three additional agents to be determined to this permit to assist with approved activities. The Environmental Officer has reviewed the modification request and has determined that the amendment is not a material change to the permit, and it will have a less than a minor or transitory impact. DATES: January 19, 2016 to August 31, 2016. The permit modification was issued on January 19, 2016. Nadene G. Kennedy, Polar Coordination Specialist, Division of Polar Programs.
