On December 20, 2018, Commerce
published its Preliminary Results of the
administrative review of the amended
CVD Agreement covering the period of
review (POR) from October 1, 2017,
through December 31, 2017.1 No parties
commented on the Preliminary Results.
Commerce exercised its discretion to
toll all deadlines affected by the partial
Federal Government closure from
December 22, 2018, through the
resumption of operations on January 29,
2019.2 If the new deadline falls on a
non-business day, in accordance with
Commerce’s practice, the deadline will
become the next business day. The
revised deadline for the Final Results of
this review is now May 29, 2019.

ACTION: Proposed incidental harassment

AGENCY:
NMFS has received a request

Mammal Protection Act (MMPA), NMFS
is requesting comments on its proposal
to issue an incidental harassment
authorization (IHA) to incidentally take
marine mammals during the specified
activities. NMFS is also requesting
comments on a possible 1-year renewal
that could be issued under certain
circumstances and if all requirements
are met, as described in Request for
Public Comments at the end of this
notice. NMFS will consider public
comments prior to making any final
decision on the issuance of the
requested MMPA authorizations and
agency responses will be summarized in
the final notice of our decision.
DATES: Comments and information must
be received no later than July 5, 2019.
ADDRESSES: Comments should be

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The MMPA prohibits the ‘‘take’’ of
marine mammals, with certain
exceptions. Sections 101(a)(5)(A) and
(D) of the MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361 et
seq.) direct the Secretary of Commerce
(as delegated to NMFS) to allow, upon
request, the incidental, but not
intentional, taking of small numbers of
marine mammals by U.S. citizens who
engage in a specified activity (other than
commercial fishing) within a specified
geographical region if certain findings
are made and either regulations are
issued or, if the taking is limited to
harassment, a notice of a proposed
incidental take authorization may be
provided to the public for review.
Authorization for incidental takings
shall be granted if NMFS finds that the
taking will have a negligible impact on
the species or stock(s) and will not have
an unmitigable adverse impact on the
availability of the species or stock(s) for
taking for subsistence uses (where
relevant). Further, NMFS must prescribe
the permissible methods of taking and
other ‘‘means of effecting the least
PO 00000
Frm 00028
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
25757
practicable adverse impact’’ on the
affected species or stocks and their
habitat, paying particular attention to
rookeries, mating grounds, and areas of
similar significance, and on the
availability of such species or stocks for
taking for certain subsistence uses
(referred to in shorthand as
‘‘mitigation’’); and requirements
pertaining to the mitigation, monitoring
and reporting of such takings are set
forth.
The NDAA (Pub. L. 108–136)
removed the ‘‘small numbers’’ and
‘‘specified geographical region’’
limitations indicated above and
amended the definition of ‘‘harassment’’
as it applies to a ‘‘military readiness
activity.’’ The definitions of all
applicable MMPA statutory terms cited
above are included in the relevant
sections below.
National Environmental Policy Act
To comply with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and
NOAA Administrative Order (NAO)
216–6A, NMFS must review our
proposed action (i.e., the issuance of an
incidental harassment authorization)
with respect to potential impacts on the
human environment.
This action is consistent with
categories of activities identified in
Categorical Exclusion B4 (incidental
harassment authorizations with no
anticipated serious injury or mortality)
of the Companion Manual for NOAA
Administrative Order 216–6A, which do
not individually or cumulatively have
the potential for significant impacts on
the quality of the human environment
and for which we have not identified
any extraordinary circumstances that
would preclude this categorical
exclusion. Accordingly, NMFS has
preliminarily determined that the
issuance of the proposed IHA qualifies
to be categorically excluded from
further NEPA review.
We will review all comments
submitted in response to this notice
prior to concluding our NEPA process
or making a final decision on the IHA
request.
Summary of Request
On February 7, 2019, WSDOT
submitted a request to NMFS requesting
an IHA for the possible harassment of
small numbers of marine mammal
species incidental to Seattle Multimodal
Project at Colman Dock in Seattle,
Washington, from August 1, 2019 to July
31, 2020. After receiving the revised
project description and the revised IHA
application, NMFS determined that the
IHA application is adequate and
