(b) If comments are received from the 

NMFS West Coast Regional 

Administrator or NMFS Office of 

Protected Resources on the draft report, 

a final report shall be submitted to 

NMFS within 30 days thereafter. If no 

comments are received from NMFS, the 

draft report will be considered to be the 

final report. 

(c) In the unanticipated event that the 

construction activities clearly cause the 

take of a marine mammal in a manner 

prohibited by this Authorization (if 

issued), such as an injury, serious 

injury, or mortality, WSDOT shall 

immediately cease all operations and 

immediately report the incident to the 

Chief, Permits and Conservation 

Division, Office of Protected Resources, 

NMFS, and the West Coast Regional 

Stranding Coordinators. The report must 

include the following information: 

(i) Time, date, and location (latitude/ 

longitude) of the incident; 

(ii) Description of the incident; 

(iii) Status of all sound source use in 

the 24 hours preceding the incident; 

(iv) Environmental conditions (e.g., 

wind speed and direction, sea state, 

cloud cover, visibility, and water 

depth); 

(v) Description of marine mammal 

observations in the 24 hours preceding 

the incident; 

(vi) Species identification or 

description of the animal(s) involved; 

(vii) The fate of the animal(s); and 

(viii) Photographs or video footage of 

the animal (if equipment is available). 

Activities shall not resume until 

NMFS is able to review the 

circumstances of the prohibited take. 

NMFS shall work with WSDOT to 

determine what is necessary to 

minimize the likelihood of further 

prohibited take and ensure MMPA 

compliance. WSDOT may not resume 

their activities until notified by NMFS 

via letter, email, or telephone. 

(E) In the event that WSDOT 

discovers an injured or dead marine 

mammal, and the lead PSO determines 

that the cause of the injury or death is 

unknown and the death is relatively 

recent (i.e., in less than a moderate state 

of decomposition as described in the 

next paragraph), WSDOT will 

immediately report the incident to the 

Chief, Permits and Conservation 

Division, Office of Protected Resources, 

NMFS, and the West Coast Regional 

Stranding Coordinators. The report must 

include the same information identified 

above. Activities may continue while 

NMFS reviews the circumstances of the 

incident. NMFS will work with WSDOT 

to determine whether modifications in 

the activities are appropriate. 

(F) In the event that WSDOT 

discovers an injured or dead marine 

mammal, and the lead PSO determines 

that the injury or death is not associated 

with or related to the activities 

authorized in the IHA (e.g., previously 

wounded animal, carcass with moderate 

to advanced decomposition, or 

scavenger damage), WSDOT shall report 

the incident to the Chief, Permits and 

Conservation Division, Office of 

Protected Resources, NMFS, and the 

West Coast Regional Stranding 

Coordinators, within 24 hours of the 

discovery. WSDOT shall provide 

photographs or video footage (if 

available) or other documentation of the 

stranded animal sighting to NMFS and 

the Marine Mammal Stranding Network. 

WSDOT can continue its operations 

under such a case. 

9. This Authorization may be 

modified, suspended or withdrawn if 

the holder fails to abide by the 

conditions prescribed herein or if the 

authorized taking is having more than a 

negligible impact on the species or stock 

of affected marine mammals, or if there 

is an unmitigable adverse impact on the 

availability of such species or stocks for 

subsistence uses. 

10. A copy of this Authorization and 

the Incidental Take Statement must be 

in the possession of each contractor who 

performs the construction work at the 

Anacortes Ferry Terminals. 

11. WSDOT is required to comply 

with the Terms and Conditions of the 

Incidental Take Statement 

corresponding to NMFS’ Biological 

Opinion.

Abstract: The National Teacher and 

Principal Survey (NTPS) is a redesign of 

the Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS) 

and is ED’s primary source of 

information on the teacher and 

principal labor market and on what is 

happening in K–12 public schools from 

teachers’ and principals’ perspectives. 

NTPS is an in-depth, nationally 

representative survey of first through 

twelfth grade public school teachers, 

principals, and schools. Kindergarten 

teachers in schools with at least a first 

grade are also eligible for NTPS. Starting 

in 2015–2016, the NTPS will be 

conducted every two years utilizing core 

content and a series of rotating modules 

to allow timely collection of important 

education trends and conducting trend 

analyses. The NTPS is the Department’s 

regular source of data on salaries, outof-pocket expenses, qualifications, and 

race/ethnic and age distribution of 

teachers; along with salaries and race/

ethnic and age distribution of 

principals; and school start times and 

student teacher ratios. This request is to 

conduct the 2015–16 NTPS full-scale 

data collection.
