1 Scalar ratios were applied to ‘‘Authorized Take’’ values as described at 86 FR 5322, 5404 (January 19, 2021) to derive scaled take numbers
shown here.
2 Best abundance estimate. For most taxa, the best abundance estimate for purposes of comparison with take estimates is considered here to
be the model-predicted abundance (Roberts et al., 2016). For those taxa where a density surface model predicting abundance by month was
produced, the maximum mean seasonal abundance was used. For those taxa where abundance is not predicted by month, only mean annual
abundance is available. For Rice’s whale and the killer whale, the larger estimated SAR abundance estimate is used.
3 Modeled exposure estimate less than assumed average group size (Maze-Foley and Mullin, 2006).
Based on the analysis contained
herein of ExxonMobil’s proposed survey
activity described in its LOA
application and the anticipated take of
marine mammals, NMFS finds that
small numbers of marine mammals will
be taken relative to the affected species
or stock sizes (i.e., less than one-third of
the best available abundance estimate)
and therefore the taking is of no more
than small numbers.
Authorization
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
NMFS has determined that the level
of taking for this LOA request is
consistent with the findings made for
the total taking allowable under the
incidental take regulations and that the
amount of take authorized under the
LOA is of no more than small numbers.
Accordingly, we have issued an LOA to
ExxonMobil authorizing the take of
marine mammals incidental to its
geophysical survey activity, as
described above.

A. Background
In 1992 the Commission issued
guidelines for assessing chronic hazards
under the Federal Hazardous
Substances Act (FHSA), including
carcinogenicity, neurotoxicity,
reproductive/developmental toxicity,
exposure, bioavailability, risk
assessment, and acceptable risk.
Determining whether a product is or
contains a hazardous substance involves
scientific analysis, legal interpretation,
and the application of policy judgment.
The Guidelines are intended to assist
firms in identifying products that
present chronic hazards, to meet their
labeling obligations under the FHSA
and the Labeling of Hazardous Art
Materials Act (LHAMA). They are not
binding on industry or the Commission.
Indeed, chronic toxicity may be
established in various ways. The
Commission may determine that a
product is a hazardous substance due to
a chronic hazard based on any evidence
that is relevant and material to such a
determination.
For example, peer-reviewed scientific
studies by third parties and toxicity
assessments from CPSC’s peer agencies
may be relevant and material evidence
to establish chronic toxicity and that a
substance is a ‘‘hazardous substance’’
under the FHSA. Likewise, evidence
from third parties may be useful to
determine chronic toxicity. For
instance, third party studies may
indicate that chronic adverse health
effects are associated with foreseeable
levels of consumer exposure, allowing
the Commission to conclude that the
FHSA’s criteria for a ‘‘hazardous
substance’’ are satisfied. Other cases,
however, may require CPSC to
undertake original research to fill gaps
in knowledge.
In addition, while the Guidelines
describe certain toxic endpoints, they
do not limit the toxic endpoints the
Commission may consider. The
Commission may consider all forms of
personal injury or illness as potential
toxic endpoints.
The chronic hazard guidelines, which
should be understood as a set of best
practices, are not mandatory for the
Commission or for stakeholders. The
guidelines describe methods that CPSC
staff may use to assess chronic hazards
under the FHSA. Furthermore, the
guidelines are intended to be
sufficiently flexible to incorporate the
latest scientific information, such as
advances in risk assessment
methodology. Risk assessors may
deviate from the default assumptions
described in the guidelines, provided
that their methods and assumptions are
