ESA 

There are five marine mammal 

species that are listed as endangered 

under the ESA with confirmed or 

possible occurrence in the MIRC: 

humpback whale, blue whale, fin whale, 

sei whale, and sperm whale. 

Pursuant to Section 7 of the ESA, 

NMFS has completed consultation 

internally on the issuance of the 

modified LOAs under section 

101(a)(5)(A) of the MMPA for these 

activities. The Biological Opinion 

concludes that the Navy’s training 

activities using TDFDs within the MIRC 

Study Area are likely to adversely affect, 

but are not likely to jeopardize the 

continued existence of these ESA-listed 

marine mammal species under NMFS 

jurisdiction. 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) 

NMFS participated as a cooperating 

agency on the Navy’s Final 

Environmental Impact Statements 

(FEISs) for the MIRC. NMFS 

subsequently adopted the Navy’s EISs 

for the purpose of complying with the 

MMPA. For issuance of the LOA, which 

includes TDFDs, but also specifically 

adds monitoring and mitigation 

measures to minimize the likelihood of 

any additional impacts from TDFDs, 

NMFS has determined that there are no 

changes in the potential effects to 

marine mammal species and stocks as a 

result of the mine neutralization 

training activities using TDFDs. 

Therefore, no additional NEPA analysis 

was required, and the information in the 

existing EISs remains sufficient. 

Determination 

Based on the preceding analysis of the 

likely effects of the specified activity on 

marine mammals and their habitat and 

dependent upon the implementation of 

the mitigation measures, NMFS 

determined that the total taking from 

Navy mine neutralization training 

exercises utilizing TDFDs in the MIRC 

will have a negligible impact on the 

affected marine mammal species or 

stocks. NMFS has issued the modified 

LOA to allow takes of marine mammals 

incidental to the Navy’s mine 

neutralization training exercises using 

TDFDs, provided that the improvements 

to the monitoring and mitigation 

measures are implemented.
