in consideration of section 104(c) of the
Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972,
as amended (MMPA; 16 U.S.C. 1361 et
seq.), we invite public comments on
permit applications before final action is
taken. With some exceptions, this Act
prohibits certain activities with listed
species unless Federal authorization is
issued that allows such activities.
Service regulations regarding permits
for any activity otherwise prohibited by
the MMPA with respect to any foreign
or native marine mammal species are
available in title 50 of the Code of
Federal Regulations in part 18.
Concurrent with publishing this
notice in the Federal Register, we are
forwarding copies of the marine
mammal applications to the Marine
Mammal Commission and the
Committee of Scientific Advisors for
their review.
A. How do I comment on submitted
applications?
We invite the public and local, State,
Tribal, and Federal agencies to comment
on these applications. Before issuing
any of the requested permits, we will
take into consideration any information
that we receive during the public
comment period.
You may submit your comments and

receive after the close of the comment
period (see DATES).
When submitting comments, please
specify the name of the applicant and
