these species in the action area; therefore, none will be affected. On April 9, 2009, the USMC requested subsequent Section 7 consultation as the aforementioned BiOp was written in 2002. That consultation request is currently being examined by NMFS’ Endangered Species Division. National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)

On February 11, 2009, the USMC issued a Finding of No Significant Impact for its Environmental Assessment (EA) on MCAS Cherry Point Range Operations. Based on the analysis of the EA, the USMC determined that the proposed action will not have a significant impact on the human environment. If adequate and appropriate, NMFS intends to adopt the USMC’s EA to allow NMFS to meet its responsibilities under NEPA for the issuance of an IHA. If the USMC’s EA is not adequate, NMFS will supplement the existing analysis and documents to ensure that we comply with NEPA prior to the issuance of the IHA.
