Notice of receipt of application;
proposed incidental harassment
authorization; notice of availability of
draft environmental assessment; request
for comments.
ACTION:
We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, in response to a
request under the Marine Mammal
Protection Act of 1972, as amended,
from BP America Production Company,
propose to authorize nonlethal
incidental take by harassment of small
numbers of Southern Beaufort Sea (SBS)
polar bears (Ursus maritimus) between
issuance and December 14, 2023. The
applicant requested this authorization
for take by harassment that may result
from activities associated with closure,
remediation, and rehabilitation of the
Foggy Island Bay State No. 1 gravel pad
in the Prudhoe Bay area of the North
Slope of Alaska. We estimate that this
project may result in the nonlethal
incidental take by harassment of up to
three SBS polar bears. This proposed
authorization, if finalized, will be for up
to three takes of polar bears by Level B
harassment only. No take by injury or
mortality is requested, expected, or
proposed to be authorized.
DATES: Comments on this proposed
incidental harassment authorization and
the accompanying draft environmental
assessment must be received by March
17, 2023.
ADDRESSES: Document availability: You

harassment authorization, the
application package, supporting
information, draft environmental
assessment, and the list of references
