39486 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 128 / Tuesday, July 3, 2012 / Notices 

regulations are issued. Under the 

MMPA, the term ‘‘take’’ means to 

harass, hunt, capture, or kill or to 

attempt to harass, hunt, capture, or kill 

any marine mammal. 

Authorization for incidental taking, in 

the form of annual LOAs, may be 

granted by NMFS for periods up to five 

years if NMFS finds, after notice and 

opportunity for public comment, that 

the total taking over the five-year period 

will have a negligible impact on the 

species or stock(s) of marine mammals, 

and will not have an unmitigable 

adverse impact on the availability of the 

species or stock(s) for subsistence uses 

(where relevant). In addition, NMFS 

must prescribe regulations that include 

permissible methods of taking and other 

means of effecting the least practicable 

adverse impact on the species and its 

habitat (i.e., mitigation), and on the 

availability of the species for 

subsistence uses, paying particular 

attention to rookeries, mating rounds, 

and areas of similar significance. The 

regulations also must include 

requirements pertaining to the 

monitoring and reporting of such taking. 

Regulations governing the taking of 

marine mammals incidental to EROS 

were published on June 19, 2008 (73 FR 

34875), and remain in effect through 

July 19, 2013. For detailed information 

on this action, please refer to that 

Federal Register notice. The species 

that applicants may take in small 

numbers during EROS activities are 

bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops 

truncatus), Atlantic spotted dolphins 

(Stenella frontalis), pantropical spotted 

dolphins (Stenella attenuata), Clymene 

dolphins (Stenella clymene), striped 

dolphins (Stenella coeruleoalba), 

spinner dolphins (Stenella longirostris), 

rough-toothed dolphins (Steno 

bredanensis), Risso’s dolphins 

(Grampus griseus), melon-headed 

whales (Peponocephala electra), shortfinned pilot whales (Globicephala 

macrorhynchus), and sperm whales 

(Physeter macrocephalus). NMFS 

received requests for a LOA from 

ExxonMobil Production Company 

(ExxonMobil) for activities covered by 

EROS regulations. 

Reporting 

ExxonMobil has not used explosives 

for any rig structure removal operations 

under the 2011 to 2012 LOA. 

Pursuant to these regulations, NMFS 

has issued an LOA to ExxonMobil. 

Issuance of the LOA is based on a 

finding made in the preamble to the 

final rule that the total taking over the 

five-year period (with monitoring, 

mitigation, and reporting measures) will 

have a negligible impact on the affected 

species or stock(s) of marine mammals 

and will not have an unmitigable 

adverse impact on subsistence uses. 

NMFS will review reports to ensure that 

the applicant is in compliance with 

meeting the requirements contained in 

the implementing regulations and LOA, 

including monitoring, mitigation, and 

reporting requirements.
