801652 U.S. Geological Survey 74 FR 47821; September 17, 2009 September 18, 2009 

On September 18, 2009, the Service 

issued an amendment to a permit (PRT801652) to the U.S. Geological Survey, 

to increase the number of walruses 

(Odobenus rosmarus) that may be 

incidentally harassed by the already 

authorized activities for the purpose of 

scientific research. We issued the 

amendment to the permit prior to the 

close of the public comment period 

because we found that delaying the 

issuance of the permit would result in 

the loss of a unique research 

opportunity that is present at this time. 

This action was authorized under 

section 104(c)(3)(A) of the MMPA. We 

will continue to accept and consider all 

comments regarding the amendment 

request through the close of the 

comment period as published in the 

September 17, 2009, receipt of 

application Federal Register notice (FR 

74 FR 47821).
