SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

November 23, 2011 notice was 

published in the Federal Register (76 

FR 72389) that a request for a permit to 

conduct research on humpback whales 

had been submitted by the above-named 

applicant. The requested permit has 

been issued under the authority of the 

Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972, 

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 (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 

et seq.), and the regulations governing 

the taking, importing, and exporting of 

endangered and threatened species (50 

CFR parts 222–226). 

The permit authorizes vessel 

approach for photo-identification and 

behavioral observation of humpback 

whales and incidental harassment of 

Hawaiian insular false killer whales 

(Pseudorca crassidens) in Maui County 

waters, Hawaii. The permit expires on 

June 1, 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 September 17, 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: September 20, 2012.

authorizing small entities to furnish the

alternatives which would accomplish
