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, acoustic recordings, biopsy collection, and dart and suction cup tagging. 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.

Dated: May 23, 2012. Tammy C. Adams, Acting Chief, Permits and Conservation Division, Office of Protected Resources, National Marine Fisheries Service.

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.
