Guam, the Commonwealth of the 

Northern Mariana Islands, Johnston 

Atoll, Kingman Reef, Howland Island, 

Baker Island, Jarvis Island, and Wake 

Island. Research methodologies include 

aerial and vessel surveys, behavioral 

observations, photo-identification,

Salvage and import/export of cetacean 

parts, specimens, and biological 

samples may also occur. The permit is 

valid through May 31, 2017. 

An environmental assessment (EA) 

was prepared analyzing the effects of 

the permitted activities on the human 

environment in compliance with the 

National Environmental Policy Act of 

1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.). Based on 

the analyses in the EA, NMFS 

determined that issuance of the permit 

would not significantly impact the 

quality of the human environment and 

that preparation of an environmental 

impact statement was not required. That 

determination is documented in a 

Finding of No Significant Impact 

(FONSI), signed on May 15, 2012. 

As required by the ESA, issuance of 

this permit was based on a finding that 

such permit: (1) Was applied for in good 

faith; (2) will not operate to the 

disadvantage of such endangered 

species; and (3) is consistent with the 

purposes and policies set forth in 

section 2 of the ESA.

Comments 

A 60-day public comment Notice was 

published in the Federal Register on 

November 25, 2011. This comment 

period ended January 24, 2012. One 

public comment was received from this 

Notice, submitted by the Washington 

Commission for National & Community 

Service (‘‘Commission’’). The 

Commission recommended removing 

‘‘active duty’’ from the survey question 

about veteran status, and CNCS 

removed ‘‘active duty’’ from the survey. 

The Commission questioned whether it 

was necessary to collect respondents’ 

income and household size data. CNCS 

omitted these questions from the survey. 

The Commission recommended adding 

‘‘transfer of the Siegel Education Award 

to a family member’’ as a possible 

motivation for Senior Corps volunteers 

to serve. CNCS added this to the survey. 

The Commission suggested clarifying 

the term ‘‘supervisor/team leader’’ in 

the survey. CNCS program offices 

provided accurate wording for 

supervisors and team leaders, and these 

were added to the survey. 

Description: The Corporation is 

seeking approval of the Understanding 

the Value of Service in Participants’ 

Experience survey, which is used by 

participants in and recent alumni of 

AmeriCorps and Senior Corps to 

describe their satisfaction with 

involvement in CNCS-supported service 

initiatives. CNCS wishes to understand 

participants’ perspectives on the entry 

process, the service experience, and the 

impact of serving. The information will 

be used to better understand 

participants’ satisfaction with CNCS 

programs and how various aspects of 

the service experience relate to 

participant satisfaction.
