Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 115 / Thursday, June 15, 2023 / Notices
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
the Secretary of Commerce (as delegated
to NMFS) to allow, upon 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 authorization is provided to
the public for review.
An incidental take authorization shall
be granted if NMFS finds that the taking
will have a negligible impact on the
species or stock(s), will not have an
unmitigable adverse impact on the
availability of the species or stock(s) for
subsistence uses (where relevant), and if
the permissible methods of taking and
requirements pertaining to the
mitigation, monitoring and reporting of
such takings are set forth.
NMFS has defined ‘‘negligible
impact’’ in 50 CFR 216.103 as an impact
resulting from the specified activity that
cannot be reasonably expected to, and is
not reasonably likely to, adversely affect
the species or stock through effects on
annual rates of recruitment or survival.
The MMPA states that the term ‘‘take’’
means to harass, hunt, capture, kill or
attempt to harass, hunt, capture, or kill
any marine mammal.
Except with respect to certain
activities not pertinent here, the MMPA
defines ‘‘harassment’’ as: any act of
pursuit, torment, or annoyance, which
(i) has the potential to injure a marine
mammal or marine mammal stock in the
wild (Level A harassment); or (ii) has
the potential to disturb a marine
mammal or marine mammal stock in the
wild by causing disruption of behavioral
patterns, including, but not limited to,
migration, breathing, nursing, breeding,
feeding, or sheltering (Level B
harassment).
Summary of Request
On November 2, 2022 NMFS received
an application from the U.S. Space
Force, Vandenberg Space Force Base
requesting authorization for taking of
marine mammals by Level B harassment
incidental to base operations. Following
extensive exchange of information
between NMFS and the applicant, a
revised application was submitted on
May 25, 2023. The revised application
was deemed adequate and complete on
May 26, 2023.
Launch sites at VSFB serve as the
point of origin for launches conducted
by Department of Defense, National
Aeronautics and Space Administration,
and commercial entities. All launch
operations would occur at VSFB,
potentially resulting in impacts to

Jkt 259001
marine mammals at VSFB (as a result of
launch noise and visual stimuli) and at
the Northern Channel Islands (as a
result of noise from sonic booms).
Therefore, USSF requests authorization
to incidentally take marine mammals.
Specified Activities
U.S. Space Force’s request describes
activities that are conducted to meet
mission requirements for VSFB. The
base is the primary launch facility on
the west coast of the United States for
placing commercial, government, and
military satellites into polar orbit on
unmanned launch vehicles, and for the
testing and evaluation of
intercontinental ballistic missiles
(ICBMs) and sub-orbital target and
interceptor missiles. Related operations
include surface launches of space
vehicles and recovery of first stage
boosters, silo launches of
intercontinental ballistic missiles, test
launches related to the Ground Based
Strategic Defense program (GBSD),
operation of various aircraft including
unmanned aerial systems, and harbor
operations. The USSF anticipates an
incremental increase in the number of
launches, culminating with 15 missile
and 110 rocket launches in 2028, the
last full calendar year that an
authorization would be in effect.
A full description of these activities
including descriptions of the types of
vehicles, estimated number of launches
per year and proposed marine mammal
monitoring, is provided in the USSF’s
request.
Information Solicited
Interested persons may submit
information, suggestions, and comments
concerning U.S. Space Force’s request
(see ADDRESSES). NMFS will consider all
information, suggestions, and comments
related to the request during the
development of proposed regulations
governing the incidental taking of
marine mammals by U.S. Space Force,
if appropriate.
Dated: June 9, 2023.

Director, Office of Protected Resources,
