In compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), a final determination has been made that the
activities proposed are categorically excluded from the requirement to
prepare an environmental assessment or environmental impact statement.
As required by the ESA, as applicable, issuance of this permit was
based on a finding that such permit: (1) was applied for in good faith;
(2) will not operate to the disadvantage of such endangered species;
and (3) is consistent with the purposes and policies set forth in
section 2 of the ESA.
Authority: The requested permit has been issued under the MMPA of
1972, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.), the regulations governing
the taking and importing of marine mammals (50 CFR part 216), the ESA
of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), and the regulations
governing the taking, importing, and exporting of endangered and
threatened species (50 CFR parts 222 through 226), as applicable.
