will have a negligible impact on the 

affected species or stocks. 

Impact on Availability of Affected 

Species or Stock for Taking for 

Subsistence Uses 

Section 101(a)(5)(D) also requires 

NMFS to determine that the 

authorization will not have an 

unmitigable adverse effect on the 

availability of marine mammal species 

or stocks for subsistence use. There are 

no relevant subsistence uses of marine 

mammals in the study area (deep, 

offshore waters of the central GOA) that 

implicate MMPA Section 101(a)(5)(D). 

Endangered Species Act 

Of the species of marine mammals 

that may occur in the proposed survey 

area, several are listed as endangered 

under the ESA, including the North 

Pacific right, humpback, sei, fin, blue, 

and sperm whales, as well as the Cook 

Inlet DPS of beluga whales and the 

western stock of Steller sea lions. The 

eastern stock of Steller sea lions is listed 

as threatened, as is the southwest 

Alaska DPS of the sea otter. Under 

Section 7 of the ESA, USGS has 

initiated formal consultation with the 

NMFS, Office of Protected Resources, 

Endangered Species Division, on this 

proposed seismic survey. NMFS’s Office 

of Protected Resources, Permits, 

Conservation and Education Division, 

has initiated formal consultation under 

section 7 of the ESA with NMFS’ Office 

of Protected Resources, Endangered 

Species Division, to obtain a Biological 

Opinion evaluating the effects of issuing 

the IHA on threatened and endangered 

marine mammals and, if appropriate, 

authorizing incidental take. NMFS will 

conclude formal section 7 consultation 

prior to making a determination on 

whether or not to issue the IHA. If the 

IHA is issued, USGS, in addition to the 

mitigation and monitoring requirements 

included in the IHA, will be required to 

comply with the Terms and Conditions 

of the Incidental Take Statement 

corresponding to NMFS’s Biological 

Opinion issued to both USGS and 

NMFS’s Office of Protected Resources. 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) 

With its complete application, USGS 

provided NMFS an EA analyzing the 

direct, indirect, and cumulative 

environmental impacts of the proposed 

specified activities on marine mammals 

including those listed as threatened or 

endangered under the ESA. The EA, 

prepared by LGL on behalf of USGS is 

entitled ‘‘Environmental Assessment of a 

Marine Geophysical Survey by the R/V 

Marcus G. Langseth in the central Gulf 

of Alaska, June 2011.’’ Prior to making 

a final decision on the IHA application, 

NMFS will either prepare an 

independent EA, or, after review and 

evaluation of the USGS EA for 

consistency with the regulations 

published by the Council of 

Environmental Quality (CEQ) and 

NOAA Administrative Order 216–6, 

Environmental Review Procedures for 

Implementing the National 

Environmental Policy Act, adopt the 

USGS EA and make a decision of 

whether or not to issue a Finding of No 

Significant Impact (FONSI). 

Proposed Authorization 

NMFS proposes to issue an IHA to 

USGS for conducting a marine 

geophysical survey in the central GOA, 

provided the previously mentioned 

mitigation, monitoring, and reporting 

requirements are incorporated. The 

duration of the IHA would not exceed 

one year from the date of its issuance. 

Information Solicited 

NMFS requests interested persons to 

submit comments and information 

concerning this proposed project and 

NMFS’ preliminary determination of 

issuing an IHA (see ADDRESSES). 

Concurrent with the publication of this 

notice in the Federal Register, NMFS is 

forwarding copies of this application to 

the Marine Mammal Commission and 

its Committee of Scientific Advisors.
