SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

subject modification to Permit No. 

13543, issued on May 6, 2009 (74 FR 

20926) is requested under the authority 

of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, 

as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) and 

the regulations governing the taking, 

importing, and exporting of endangered 

and threatened species (50 CFR 222– 

226). 

Permit No. 13543 authorizes the 

permit holder to handle, measure, 

weigh, passive integrated transponder 

tag, flipper tag, and photograph 

loggerhead (Caretta caretta), green 

(Chelonia mydas), Kemp’s ridley 

(Lepidochelys kempii), leatherback 

(Dermochelys coriacea), olive ridley (L. 

olivacea), and hawksbill (Eretmochelys 

imbricata) sea turtles that have already 

been captured by authorized coastal 

trawl surveys in waters off of North 

Carolina to Florida. The purpose of the 

research is to further the understanding 

of the growth, distribution, and life 

history of sea turtles. The permit is valid 

through April 30, 2014. The permit 

holder requests authorization to 

increase the annual take limit for 

Kemp’s ridley and loggerhead sea turtles 

from 15 to 32 animals and 45 to 50 

animals, respectively, on which they 

may conduct authorized research 

procedures. The increase would 

accommodate recent increases in 

capture rates of these species in the 

trawl surveys. Unless additional take is 

authorized, opportunities will be lost to 

collect valuable data on Kemp’s ridley 

and loggerhead sea turtles.
