IHA) and alternatives with respect to 

potential impacts on the human 

environment. 

This action is consistent with 

categories of activities identified in 

Categorical Exclusion B4 (IHAs with no 

anticipated serious injury or mortality) 

of the Companion Manual for NOAA 

Administrative Order 216–6A, which do 

not individually or cumulatively have 

the potential for significant impacts on 

the quality of the human environment 

and for which we have not identified 

any extraordinary circumstances that 

would preclude this categorical 

exclusion. Accordingly, NMFS has 

determined that the issuance of the IHA 

qualifies to be categorically excluded 

from further NEPA review. 

Endangered Species Act (ESA) 

Section 7(a)(2) of the ESA (16 U.S.C. 

1531 et seq.) requires that each Federal 

agency insure that any action it 

authorizes, funds, or carries out is not 

likely to jeopardize the continued 

existence of any endangered or 

threatened species or result in the 

destruction or adverse modification of 

designated critical habitat. 

No incidental take of ESA-listed 

species is authorized or expected to 

result from this activity. Therefore, 

NMFS has determined that formal 

consultation under section 7 of the ESA 

is not required for this action. 

Authorization 

NMFS has issued an IHA to the Coast 

Guard for the potential harassment of 

small numbers of five marine mammal 

species incidental to the Base Los 

Angeles/Long Beach Wharf Expansion 

project in Los Angeles, California, 

provided the previously mentioned 

mitigation, monitoring and reporting 

requirements are followed.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

This NTIA cybersecurity 

multistakeholder process focuses on 

promoting software component 

transparency.1 Most modern software is 

not written completely from scratch, but 

includes existing components, modules, 

and libraries from the open source and 

commercial software world. Modern 

development practices such as code 

reuse, and a dynamic IT marketplace 

with acquisitions and mergers, make it 

challenging to track the use of software 

components. The Internet of Things 

compounds this phenomenon, as new 

organizations, enterprises, and 

innovators take on the role of software 

developer to add ‘‘smart’’ features or 

connectivity to their products. While 

the majority of libraries and components 

do not have known vulnerabilities, 

many do, and the sheer quantity of 

software means that some software 

products ship with vulnerable or out-ofdate components. 

The first meeting of this 

multistakeholder process was held on 

July 19, 2018, in Washington, DC.2

Stakeholders presented multiple 

perspectives, and identified several 

inter-related work streams: 

Understanding the Problem, Use Cases 

and State of Practice, Standards and 

Formats, and Healthcare Proof of 

Concept. Since then, stakeholders have 

been discussing key issues and 

developing products such as guidance 

documents. NTIA acts as the convener, 

but stakeholders drive the outcomes. 

Success of the process will be evaluated 

by the extent to which broader findings 

on software component transparency are 

implemented across the ecosystem. 

The first set of stakeholder-drafted 

documents on Software Bills of 

Materials was published by NTIA in 

November 2019. Those documents, and 

subsequent consensus-approved drafts 

from the community, are available at: 

https://www.ntia.gov/SBOM. The main 

objectives of the January 13, 2021 

meeting are to share progress from the 

working groups; to give feedback on the 

ongoing work around technical 

challenges, tooling, demonstrations, and 

awareness and adoption; and to 

continue discussions around potential 

guidance or playbook documents. This 

meeting will also feature short 

demonstrations of SBOM-related tools 

and services to help the community 

understand the growth of the broader 

ecosystem. Demonstration suggestions 

and proposals should be 250 words or 

less and should be submitted to Allan 

Friedman at afriedman@ntia.gov by 

December 21, 2020. More information 

about stakeholders’ work is available at: 

https://www.ntia.gov/ 

SoftwareTransparency. 

Time and Date: NTIA will convene 

the next meeting of the multistakeholder 

process on Software Component 

Transparency on January 13, 2021, from 

12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
