have been mitigated to the lowest level 

practicable. 

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 (offshore 

waters of the Line Islands in the central 

Pacific Ocean) 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 

humpback, sei, fin, blue, and sperm 

whale and Hawaiian monk seal. L-DEO 

did not request take of endangered 

humpback, sei, blue, or fin whales or 

Hawaiian monk seals because of the low 

likelihood of encountering these species 

during the cruise. As mentioned 

previously, the survey would not occur 

in any areas designated as critical 

habitat for ESA-listed species and 

would not adversely impact marine 

mammal habitat. 

Under section 7 of the ESA, NSF has 

initiated formal consultation with the 

NMFS’, Office of Protected Resources, 

Endangered Species Act Interagency 

Cooperation Division on this proposed 

seismic survey. NMFS’ Office of 

Protected Resources, Permits and 

Conservation Division has initiated 

formal consultation under section 7 of 

the ESA with NMFS’ Office of Protected 

Resources, Endangered Species Act 

Interagency Cooperation 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, NSF and L-DEO, 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’ Biological 

Opinion issued to both NSF and NMFS’ 

Office of Protected Resources. 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) 

With its complete application, NSF 

and L-DEO provided NMFS a 

‘‘Environmental Assessment and 

Finding of No Significant Impact 

(FONSI) Determination Pursuant to the 

National Environmental Policy Act, 

(NEPA: 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and 

Executive Order 12114 for a ‘‘Marine 

Geophysical Survey by the R/V Marcus 

G. Langseth in the Central Pacific Ocean 

May, 2012,’’ which incorporates an 

‘‘Environmental Assessment of a Marine 

Geophysical Survey by the R/V Marcus 

G. Langseth in the central Pacific Ocean, 

May, 2012,’’ prepared by LGL on behalf 

of NSF and L-DEO. The EA analyzes the 

direct, indirect, and cumulative 

environmental impacts of the specified 

activities on marine mammals including 

those listed as threatened or endangered 

under the ESA. NMFS conducted an 

independent review and evaluation of 

the document for sufficiency and 

compliance with the Council of 

Environmental Quality and NOAA 

Administrative Order 216–6 § 5.09(d), 

Environmental Review Procedures for 

Implementing the National 

Environmental Policy Act, and 

determined that issuance of the IHA is 

not likely to result in significant impacts 

on the human environment. 

Consequently, NMFS plans to adopt 

NSF’s EA and prepared a FONSI for the 

issuance of the IHA. An Environmental 

Impact Statement is not required and 

will not be prepared for the action. 

Proposed Authorization 

NMFS proposes to issue an IHA to LDEO for conducting a marine 

geophysical survey in the central Pacific 

Ocean, 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.

not have a significant impact on a 

substantial number of small entities. 

The major factors considered for this

additional reporting, recordkeeping or 

other compliance requirements for small 

entities other than the small 

organizations that will provide the 

services to the Government. 

2. The action will result in 

authorizing small entities to provide the 

services to the Government.

alternatives which would accomplish 

the objectives of the Javits-WagnerO’Day Act (41 U.S.C. 8501–8506) in 

connection with the services proposed 

for addition to the Procurement List.

CORPORATION FOR NATIONAL AND 

COMMUNITY SERVICE 

Proposed Information Collection; 

Comment Request 

AGENCY: Corporation for National and 

Community Service. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Corporation for National 

and Community Service (the 

Corporation), as part of its continuing 

effort to reduce paperwork and 

respondent burden, conducts a preclearance consultation program to 

provide the general public and federal 

agencies with an opportunity to 

comment on proposed and/or 

continuing collections of information in 

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95) (44 

U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program 

helps to ensure that requested data can 

be provided in the desired format, 

reporting burden (time and financial 

resources) is minimized, collection 

instruments are clearly understood, and 

the impact of collection requirement on 

respondents can be properly assessed. 

Currently, the Corporation is 

soliciting comments concerning its 

proposed new collection request for a 

Field Assessment for Understanding the 

Involvement of Veterans and Military 

Families in National Service. The Field 

Assessment will include interviews 

with Corporation-funded programs and 

projects that involve veterans and 

military family members as national 

service participants or service 

beneficiaries. Through the interviews, 

the Corporation will collect detailed 

information on the models and 

strategies that national service programs 

and projects have developed and 

implemented to engage and serve 

veterans and military families. The aim 

of the study is to begin to build 

evidence of impact and isolate the 

unique value that national service 

brings to meeting the needs of these 

populations. Selection will be limited to 

those programs and projects that have 

shown significant and/or strategic
