governing the taking, importing, and
exporting of endangered and threatened
species (50 CFR parts 222–226).
The applicant requests to conduct
research on Atlantic and shortnose
sturgeon in freshwater and estuary areas
of the Delaware River. Research
objectives would include assessing and
quantifying the presence of Atlantic and
shortnose sturgeon at the egg, larval,
juvenile and sub-adult/adult life stages.
Other studies would also include
assessing sturgeon home range,
individual movement patterns, seasonal
movements, habitat use, nursery areas,
over-wintering habitat use, population
dynamics, and habitat assessment.
Up to 265 juvenile and 25 adult/subadult shortnose sturgeon and 265
juvenile and 5 adult/sub-adult Atlantic
sturgeon would be captured by gill net
or trawl, measured, weighed,
biologically sampled (tissue), marked
(passive integrated transponder), and
photographed/videoed, annually, prior
to release. Sub-sets of Atlantic and
shortnose sturgeon may be anesthetized
and implanted with acoustic
transmitters, gastric lavaged, and fin ray
sampled. The applicant requests one
unintentional mortality of juvenile and
adult/subadult shortnose sturgeon and
one juvenile Atlantic sturgeon annually,
but no more than two of each species
life stage over the life of the permit.
A total 300 shortnose and 100
Atlantic sturgeon of early life stages
would be taken in directed lethal

Background
The MMPA prohibits the ‘‘take’’ of
marine mammals, with certain
exceptions. Sections 101(a)(5)(A) and
(D) of the MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361 et
seq.) direct 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
promulgated or, if the taking is limited
PO 00000
Frm 00033
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
to harassment, an incidental harassment
authorization is issued.
Authorization for incidental takings
shall be granted if NMFS finds that the
taking will have a negligible impact on
the species or stock(s) and will not have
an unmitigable adverse impact on the
availability of the species or stock(s) for
taking for subsistence uses (where
relevant). Further, NMFS must prescribe
the permissible methods of taking and
other ‘‘means of effecting the least
practicable adverse impact’’ on the
affected species or stocks and their
habitat, paying particular attention to
rookeries, mating grounds, and areas of
similar significance, and on the
availability of such species or stocks for
taking for certain subsistence uses
(referred to here as ‘‘mitigation
measures’’). NMFS must also prescribe
requirements pertaining to monitoring
and reporting of such takings. The
definition of key terms such as ‘‘take,’’
‘‘harassment,’’ and ‘‘negligible impact’’
can be found in the MMPA and NMFS’s
implementing regulations (see 16 U.S.C.
1362; 50 CFR 216.103).
NMFS’ regulations implementing the
MMPA at 50 CFR 216.107(e) indicate
that IHAs may be renewed for
additional periods of time not to exceed
1 year for each reauthorization. In the
notice of proposed IHA for the initial
IHA, NMFS described the circumstances
under which we would consider issuing
a renewal for this activity, and
requested public comment on a
potential renewal under those
circumstances. Specifically, on a caseby-case basis, NMFS may issue a onetime 1-year renewal IHA following
notice to the public providing an
additional 15 days for public comments
when (1) up to another year of identical,
or nearly identical, activities as
described in the Detailed Description of
Specified Activities section of the initial
IHA issuance notice is planned or (2)
the activities as described in the
Description of the Specified Activities
and Anticipated Impacts section of the
initial IHA issuance notice will not be
completed by the time the initial IHA
expires and a renewal will allow for
completion of the activities beyond that
described in the DATES section of the
notice of issuance of the initial IHA,
provided all of the following conditions
are met:
1. A request for renewal is received no
later than 60 days prior to the needed
renewal IHA effective date (recognizing
that the renewal IHA expiration date
cannot extend beyond 1 year from
expiration of the initial IHA);
2. The request for renewal must
include the following:
