application received. If you request a 

hearing, give specific reasons why a 

hearing would be appropriate. The 

holding of such a hearing is at the 

discretion of the Service Director. 

III. Permit Applications 

[A.] Endangered Species 

Applicant: Dr. Ajit Varki, Department of 

Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 

University of California, San Diego, 

CA, PRT–236267 

The applicant requests a permit to 

acquire from Coriell Institute, Camden, 

NJ, in interstate commerce DNA and/or 

cell lines from chimpanzee, (Pan 

troglodytes), gorilla (Gorilla), and 

Bornean orangutan (Pongo pygmaeus) 

for the purpose of scientific research. 

This notification covers activities to be 

conducted by the applicant over a oneyear period. 

Applicant: Exotic Feline Breeding 

Compound, Inc., Rosamond, CA, 

PRT–234072 

The applicant requests a permit to 

import one captive bred male Iranian 

leopard (Panthera pardus saxicolor) 

from Aalborg Zoo, Denmark, for the 

purpose of enhancement of the survival 

of the species. 

The following applicants each request 

a permit to import the sport-hunted 

trophy of one male bontebok 

(Damaliscus pygargus pygargus) culled 

from a captive herd maintained under 

the management program of the 

Republic of South Africa, for the 

purpose of enhancement of the survival 

of the species. 

Applicant: Terrance David Braden, 

Williamston, MI, PRT–231677 

Applicant: Alan Maiss, Reno, NV, PRT– 

228691 

Applicant: Conroe Taxidermy, Conroe, 

TX, PRT–230925 

On January 26, 2010, we published a 

Federal Register notice inviting the 

public to comment on several 

applications for permits to conduct 

certain activities with endangered 

species (75 FR 4103). We made an error 

in reporting the species of the animal in 

the Conroe Taxidermy application, 

which starts at the top of column 3 on 

page 4103. The animal is not a male 

Scimitar-horned oryx (Oryx dammah) as 

we reported in 75 FR 4103, but rather 

a male Bontebok (Damaliscus pygargus 

pygargus). All the other information we 

printed was correct. With this notice, 

we correct that error and reopen the 

comment period for PRT–230925. 

[B.] [Endangered Marine Mammals and] 

Marine Mammals 

Applicant: U.S. Fish and Wildlife 

Service, Jacksonville, FL, PRT–770191 

The applicant requests a permit and a 

letter of authorization for the rescue, 

rehabilitation and release of unlimited 

number of stranded West Indian 

manatees (Trichechus manatus) in the 

waters of the United States, the import 

of rescued manatees, and import and 

export of biological specimens. This 

notification covers activities to be 

conducted by the applicant over a 5- 

year period. 

Concurrent with publishing this 

notice in the Federal Register, we are 

forwarding copies of the above 

applications to the Marine Mammal 

Commission and the Committee of 

Scientific Advisors for their review.
