SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
subject modification to Permit No.
22671–02, issued on January 31, 2020
(85 FR 7978, February 12, 2020), is
requested under the authority of the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) and
the regulations governing the taking,
importing, and exporting of endangered
and threatened species (50 CFR parts
222–226).
Permit 22671–02 authorizes the
permit holder to study the presence, life
history, population size, migration,
physiology, and passage of wild
shortnose sturgeon (Acipenser
brevirostrum) in the Connecticut River.
The permit also authorizes use of
captive (non-releasable) shortnose
sturgeon for research and enhancement
objectives. In research conducted on
wild fish, researchers may use gill nets
and trawls to capture juvenile and
adult/sub-adult shortnose sturgeon to
measure, weigh, passive integrated
transponder tag (PIT), borescope,
genetic tissue and blood sample, and
photograph prior to release. A subset of
animals may also be anesthetized and
receive internal acoustic transmitters.
Early life stages (ELS) may be lethally
sampled with D-nets and egg mats to
document spawning incidence. Up to
two juvenile and one adult or sub-adult
sturgeon may unintentionally die
annually during research activities. The
permit holder requests new
authorization between the Holyoke Dam
to Agawam, Massachusetts to add new
objectives and take, including (1)
determining the range, ecology, habitat,
and recruitment of juvenile shortnose
sturgeon life stages; (2) using egg mat
and D-net samplers to collect 150 ELS
below the Holyoke Dam; (3) capturing
up to 200 young-of-year and older
juvenile shortnose sturgeon annually
using gillnets, mini-trawl, beach seine,
and cast-net sampling gear. Up to 175 of
these would be PIT tagged, measured,
photographed, fin clipped, and
weighed, and up to 25 would be
anesthetized and internally tagged
before being released; (4) capturing up
to 50 adult/sub-adult shortnose sturgeon
annually, adding procedures, including
borescope; PIT tag; measure; photo/
video; fin clip (genetic) and weigh.
Additionally, up to five of these fish,
having expired acoustic transmitters,
may also have them surgically
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 259001
reimplanted under anesthesia; and (5)
anesthetizing and implanting acoustic
tags in up to 20 adult/sub-adult
shortnose sturgeon approaching the
Holyoke Dam aggregation; and (6)
performing additional procedures,
including measure, weigh, PIT tag,
photo, genetic tissue sample, and
borescope, on up to 20 adult/sub-adult
shortnose sturgeon collected under
another authority in the Holyoke Dam
fish lift. The permit is valid through
March 31, 2029.
Dated: November 9, 2022.
