SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

as amended (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.), the 

regulations governing the taking and 

importing of marine mammals (50 CFR 

part 216), the Endangered Species Act of 

1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et 

seq.), and the regulations governing the

endangered and threatened species (50 

CFR parts 222–226), and the Fur Seal 

Act of 1966, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1151 

et seq.). 

Permit No. 26667, issued on

permit be amended to add a new 

objective for research on parts from 

cetaceans outside of Alaska. This 

includes the annual import, export, and 

receipt of parts from the Eastern 

Canada-West Greenland stock of 

bowhead whales (N = 300 animals) and 

parts from all other cetacean species (N 

= 1,500 animals). 

In compliance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 

U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), an initial 

determination has been made that the 

activity proposed is categorically 

excluded from the requirement to 

prepare an environmental assessment or 

environmental impact statement. 

Concurrent with the publication of 

this notice in the Federal Register,
