certificate regarding the reimbursement
of antidumping duties and/or
countervailing duties prior to

comply with this requirement may
result in the presumption that
reimbursement of antidumping duties
and/or countervailing duties occurred
and the subsequent assessment of
double antidumping duties.
Notification Regarding Administrative
Protective Order
This notice serves as the only
reminder to parties subject to
administrative protective order (APO) of
their responsibility concerning the
disposition of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3). Timely

SUMMARY:
Background
The MMPA prohibits the ‘‘take’’ of
marine mammals, with certain

seq.) direct the Secretary of Commerce
(as delegated to NMFS) to allow, upon

Overview
multi-year construction of the Interstate
(I)–64 HRBT Expansion project. The
overall project will widen I–64 for
approximately 15.93 kilometer (km) (9.9
miles) along I–64 from Settlers Landing
Road in Hampton, Virginia to the I–64/
I–564 interchange in Norfolk, Virginia.
The project will create an eight-lane
facility with six consistent use lanes.
The project will include full
replacement of the North and South
Trestle Bridges, two new parallel
tunnels constructed using a Tunnel
Boring Machine (TBM), expansion of
the existing portal islands, and
widening of the Willoughby Bay Trestle
Bridges, Bay Avenue Trestle Bridges,
and Oastes Creek Trestle Bridges. Also,
upland portions of I–64 will be widened
to accommodate the additional lanes,
the Mallory Street Bridge will be
replaced, and the I–64 overpass bridges
will be improved. The planned
activities below are part of the overall
project (see the application for
additional details on the overall
project). Only the activities relevant to
the IHA requested by HRCP are
discussed below. This includes the
following components:
D TBM Platform at the South Island;
D Conveyor Trestle at the South
Island;
D Temporary trestles for jet grouting
at the South Island;
D Temporary trestle for bridge
construction at the North Shore;
D Mooring piles at the South Trestle
(located at the South Island), North
Island, and Willoughby Bay; and
D Installation and removal of piles for
test pile program.
Pile installation methods will include
impact and vibratory driving, jetting,
and drilling with a down-the-hole
(DTH) hammer. Pile removal techniques
for temporary piles will include
vibratory pile removal or cutting below
the mud line. Installation of steel pipe
piles could be 24-, 36-, or 42-inches (in)
in diameter to support temporary work
trestles, platforms, and moorings. Test
piles would consist of 30-in square
concrete or 54-in concrete cylinder
piles. Only load test piles will be
removed under this IHA. In-water pile
installation using impact and vibratory
driving, and drilling with a DTH
hammer, and pile removal using a
vibratory hammer, have the potential to
harass marine mammals acoustically
and could result in incidental takes of
individual marine mammals. Jetting is
not likely to result in take.
The HRCP is working with the
Virginia Department of Transportation
(VDOT) and Federal and state agencies
to advance the design, approvals, and
Dates and Duration
Work could occur at any point during
the year, and will occur during the day.
Pile installation may extend into
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. Under
the MMPA, ‘‘take’’ is defined as
meaning to harass, hunt, capture, or kill,
or attempt to harass, hunt, capture, or
kill any marine mammal.
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
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 definitions of all applicable
MMPA statutory terms cited above are
included in the relevant sections below.
Summary of Request
On September 18, 2019, NMFS
received a request from the HRCP for an
IHA to take marine mammals incidental
to impact and vibratory pile driving
activities associated with the HRBT, in
Hampton and Norfolk, Virginia for one
year from the date of issuance. The
application was deemed adequate and
complete on February 4, 2020. The
HRCP request is for take of a small
number of five species of marine
mammals by Level A and B harassment.
Neither the HRCP nor NMFS expects
injury, serious injury or mortality to
result from this activity and, therefore,
an IHA is appropriate. The planned
activities are part of a larger project and
the applicant has requested rulemaking
and a letter of authorization for the
other components of this project.
