species would be used as it has been
shown to have the ability to incorporate
a thymidine substitute that can be used
to identify which phytoplankton have
ingested the bacteria. The feeding
experiments would be conducted in
sealed plastic containers kept isolated
from the environment. At the
conclusion of the experiments, any
sample or culture remaining, including
filtered seawater, would be destroyed by
autoclaving on the ship. Supplies and
equipment would be sterilized at the
end of each experiment by autoclaving
or using ethanol. The applicant and
permit agents are experienced in using
sterile techniques and in maintaining
safe practices with microbial cultures.
Location: West Antarctic Peninsula
region.
Dates of Permitted Activities: April
10–May 31, 2019.
2. Applicant: Permit Application:
2019–018. Daniel P. Zitterbart, Woods
Hole Oceanographic Institution, 266
Woods Hole Road, Woods Hole, MA
02543–1050.
Activity for Which Permit is
Requested: Take. The permit applicant
proposes to place short-term
deployment tags on humpback whales
(Megaptera novaeangliae) for the
purposes of studying their foraging
ecology. The applicant would deploy
digital acoustic recording tags (DTAGs)
onto humpback whales to record the
three-dimensional movement of the
animals, and the presence of feeding
lunges. DTAGs contain a 3-axis
accelerometer and magnetometer that
record the pitch, yaw, and heading of
the whale at a high sampling rate (> 50
Hz), as well as a pressure sensor that
records the depth of the animal. A
FastLoc® (Wildtrack Telemetry Systems
Ltd) GPS tag will also be attached to the
DTAG, allowing the position of the
whale to be recorded throughout the
deployment. To deploy the tag, a zodiac
will be used to approach the whale,
with the tag lowered onto the back of
the whale using a carbon-fibre pole.
Effort will be made to tag animals that
are determined to be in transit or
resting, and not currently feeding. The
tags would be released from the whales
after several hours and would be
retrieved by the researchers. The
applicant proposes to tag up to five
adult or sub-adult humpack whales
during the permit period (no calves
would be tagged). Up to 70 additional
whales, all ages, would potentially be
approached and disturbed during the
tagging efforts. The applicant and agents
would also conduct water and
oceanographic sampling, as well as
deploy an echosounder and
hydrophone, in order to study the

availability of prey and oceanographic
conditions during whale foraging. The
study would be conducted during an
expedition aboard a tour vessel operated
by Polar Latitudes, Inc.
Location: West Antarctic Peninsula
region.
Dates of Permitted Activities: March
1–20, 2019.
