Notice of Permit Modification Received
Under the Antarctic Conservation Act
of 1978
National Science Foundation.
Notice of permit modification
request received and permit issued
under the Antarctic Conservation Act of
1978, Public Law 95–541.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The National Science
Foundation (NSF) is required to publish
a notice of requests to modify permits
issued to conduct activities regulated
and permits issued under the Antarctic
Conservation Act of 1978. NSF has
published regulations under the
Antarctic Conservation Act at Title 45
Part 670 of the Code of Federal
Regulations. This is the required notice
of a requested permit modification and
permit issued.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Nature McGinn, ACA Permit Officer,
Division of Polar Programs, Rm. 755,
National Science Foundation, 4201
Wilson Boulevard, Arlington, VA 22230.
Or by email: ACApermits@nsf.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Foundation issued a permit (ACA 2014–
003) to Jennifer Burns on July 18, 2012.
The issued permit allows the applicant
to study the interaction of Weddell seal
condition and the timing of molting and
reproduction. This involves capture,
restrain, and sedation of adult female
seals, VHF and TDR/GPS tag
deployments, and visual surveys. Pups
of these females are flipper-tagged.
These permitted activities may take
place in ASPAs 121, 155, and 157
amongst other areas in McMurdo
Sound. Previous modifications, dated
December 2, 2014 and November 12,
2015, covered changes to handling,
sampling, marking, and tagging methods
as allowed under NMFS MMPA permit
#17411.
Now the applicant proposes a permit
modification to extend the expiration
date of her ACA permit that currently
expires on February 28, 2017. This
modification will extend the time
allowed to conduct the permitted
activities until March 31, 2017. The
total number of takes and harassments
will not exceed those already allowed
under both the ACA and NMFS MMPA
permits. The extension is primarily to
allow for additional surveys. 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.
