Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 236 / Thursday, December 9, 2010 / Notices 76705 

Permit No. 13544 authorizes the 

permit holder to characterize the 

aggregations of Kemp’s ridley, 

loggerhead, green, and hawksbill sea 

turtles in the nearshore waters of Lee 

County in southwest Florida by 

annually performing capture, weighing, 

passive integrated transponder (PIT) 

tagging, biopsy sampling; and for 

subsets of animals, fecal sampling and 

external tagging). The modified permit 

authorizes researchers to additionally 

satellite tag a subset of Kemp’s ridley 

and loggerhead sea turtles to determine 

their seasonal distribution and possible 

migrations in the southeastern Gulf of 

Mexico. The permit modification is 

valid until the permit expires on April 

30, 2014. 

Permit No. 13307–01 authorizes the 

permit holder to addresses fine-scale 

temporal and spatial patterns of sea 

turtle habitat use, ecology, and genetic 

origin within the Dry Tortugas National 

Park by annually capturing, weighing, 

flipper tagging, PIT tagging, and 

sampling (blood, tissue, feces, and 

lavage) green, hawksbill, and loggerhead 

sea turtles, a subset of which may be 

externally tagged with satellite and 

acoustic transmitters. The permit 

modification increases the number of 

green sea turtles that may be captured 

to 80 per year due to the high rate of 

recent capture success. The 

modification is valid until the permit 

expires on June 30, 2013. 

Issuance of these permits, as required 

by the ESA, was based on a finding that 

such permits (1) Were applied for in 

good faith, (2) will not operate to the 

disadvantage of such endangered or 

threatened species, and (3) are 

consistent with the purposes and 

policies set forth in section 2 of the 

ESA.
