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
permit (ACA 2016–024) to Ari
Friedlaender on February 8, 2016. The
issued permit allows the permit holder
to conduct waste management activities
associated with the tagging and biopsy
sampling of baleen whales in the
Antarctic Peninsula region. The permit
covers any accidental releases that may
occur if the biopsy darts and/or tags are
lost during the conduct of the research.
Now the permit holder proposes a
modification to his permit to include
waste management activities associated
with the operation of unmanned aircraft
systems (UAS) used to collect
photographs of individual whales for
health assessment purposes. The permit
holder is requesting this modification in
the unlikely event that the UAS is lost
during the conduct of science missions.
The UAS will be operated by
experienced pilots according to
protocols designed to ensure safe
operations and to minimize the risk of
loss of the UAS. The UAS are powered
by lithium polymer batteries and do not
require any fuels.
Location: Antarctic Peninsula region.
Dates: February 15, 2017–April 30,
2020.
