jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES
we found that marine mammal stock
abundance was still estimated to be the
same as for the 2020 IHA. Other marine
mammal information and the potential
effects were identical to the 2020 IHA
except for the increase in the daily
abundance of harbor seals. The
estimated take was calculated
identically to the 2020 IHA, except for
harbor seals, and zone sizes decreased
for a number of pile sizes. The increased
daily abundance and take of harbor
seals still involves far less than 10
percent of the stock (Table 4). Mitigation
and monitoring are identical to the 2020
IHA except for the decrease in Level A
harassment and shutdown zones for
many pile types and the change in
standard language, which has no
substantive effect on our analysis.
NMFS has concluded that there is no
new information suggesting that our
analysis or findings should change from
those reached for the 2020 IHA. This
includes consideration of the estimated
abundance of harbor seals increasing,
the change in harassment and shutdown
zones, and the updating of IHA language
for mitigation and monitoring.
Based on the information and analysis
contained here and in the referenced
documents, NMFS has determined the
following: (1) The required mitigation
measures will effect the least practicable
impact on marine mammal species or
stocks and their habitat; (2) the
authorized takes will have a negligible
impact on the affected marine mammal
species or stocks; (3) the authorized
takes represent small numbers of marine
mammals relative to the affected stock
abundances; (4) Chevron’s activities will
not have an unmitigable adverse impact
on taking for subsistence purposes as no
relevant subsistence uses of marine
mammals are implicated by this action,
and; (5) appropriate monitoring and
reporting requirements are included.
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
IHA) with respect to potential impacts
on the human environment. This action
is consistent with categories of activities
identified in Categorical Exclusion B4
IHAs 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 determined that this action
qualifies to be categorically excluded
from further NEPA review.
Endangered Species Act
Section 7(a)(2) of the Endangered
Species Act of 1973 (ESA: 16 U.S.C.
1531 et seq.) requires that each Federal
agency insure that any action it
authorizes, funds, or carries out is not
likely to jeopardize the continued
existence of any endangered or
threatened species or result in the
destruction or adverse modification of
designated critical habitat. To ensure
ESA compliance for the issuance of
IHAs, NMFS consults internally, in this
case with the West Coast Region,
Protected Resources Division Office,
whenever we propose to authorize take
for endangered or threatened species.
No incidental take of ESA-listed
species is proposed for authorization or
expected to result from this activity.
Therefore, NMFS has determined that
formal consultation under section 7 of
the ESA is not required for this action.
Authorization
NMFS has issued an IHA to Chevron
for the potential harassment of small
numbers of seven species of marine
mammal species incidental to the
LWMEP project in San Francisco Bay,
CA, provided the previously mentioned
mitigation, monitoring and reporting
requirements are followed.
