Endangered Species; Receipt of 

Recovery Permit Applications 

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of receipt of permit 

applications; request for comments. 

SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and 

Wildlife Service, have received 

applications for permits to conduct 

activities intended to enhance the 

propagation and survival of endangered 

species under the Endangered Species 

Act of 1973, as amended. We invite the 

public and local, State, Tribal, and 

Federal agencies to comment on these 

applications. Before issuing the 

requested permits, we will take into 

consideration any information that we 

receive during the public comment 

period. 

DATES: We must receive your written 

comments on or before October 4, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: Document availability and

Permit Coordinator, Ecological Services,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the 

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, invite 

the public to comment on applications 

for permits under section 10(a)(1)(A) of 

the Endangered Species Act, as 

amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). 

The requested permits would allow the 

applicants to conduct activities 

intended to promote recovery of species 

that are listed as endangered under the 

ESA. 

Background 

With some exceptions, the ESA 

prohibits activities that constitute take 

of listed species unless a Federal permit 

is issued that allows such activity. The 

ESA’s definition of ‘‘take’’ includes such 

activities as pursuing, harassing, 

trapping, capturing, or collecting, in 

addition to hunting, shooting, harming, 

wounding, or killing. 

A recovery permit issued by us under 

section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA 

authorizes the permittee to conduct 

activities with endangered or threatened 

species for scientific purposes that 

promote recovery or for enhancement of 

propagation or survival of the species. 

These activities often include such 

prohibited actions as capture and 

collection. Our regulations 

implementing section 10(a)(1)(A) for 

these permits are found in the Code of 

Federal Regulations (CFR) at 50 CFR 

17.22 for endangered wildlife species, 

50 CFR 17.32 for threatened wildlife 

species, 50 CFR 17.62 for endangered 

plant species, and 50 CFR 17.72 for 

threatened plant species. 

Permit Applications Available for 

Review and Comment 

Proposed activities in the following 

permit requests are for the recovery and 

enhancement of propagation or survival 

of the species in the wild. The ESA 

requires that we invite public comment 

before issuing these permits. 

Accordingly, we invite local, State, 

Tribal, and Federal agencies and the 

public to submit written data, views, or 

arguments with respect to these 

applications. The comments and 

recommendations that will be most 

useful and likely to influence agency 

decisions are those supported by 

quantitative information or studies.

AGENCY: Bureau of Ocean Energy 

Management, Interior. 

ACTION: Notice; extension of comment 

period and corrections. 

SUMMARY: On August 31, 2021, the 

Bureau of Ocean Energy Management 

(BOEM) published the ‘‘Notice of Intent 

to Prepare an Environmental Impact 

Statement for the Proposed Sunrise 

Wind Farm Project on the Northeast 

Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf’’ in the 

Federal Register (86 FR 48763). The 

NOI announced that BOEM will prepare 

an environmental impact statement 

(EIS) as part of its review of a 

construction and operations plan 

submitted by Sunrise Wind LLC and 

provided project information. The NOI 

stated that comments received by 

September 30, 2021, will be considered. 

This notice corrects two statements in 

the NOI regarding the agreement with 

the New York State Energy Research 

and Development Authority 

(NYSERDA) and the proposed 

foundation types. In addition, this 

notice extends the comment period. 

DATES: Comments received by October 

4, 2021, will be considered. 

ADDRESSES: Comments must be 

submitted in writing in any of the 

following ways: 

• Delivered by mail or delivery 

service, enclosed in an envelope labeled 

‘‘Sunrise Wind COP EIS,’’ and 

addressed to Program Manager, Office of 

Renewable Energy, Bureau of Ocean 

Energy Management, 45600 Woodland

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Technical Corrections 

In the Federal Register dated August 

31, 2021, on page 48764 in the first 

column, line 64, under the heading 

‘‘Purpose and Need for the Proposed 

Action,’’ BOEM originally included the 

following sentences: ‘‘This Project will 

help the State of New York achieve the 

aggressive clean energy goals set forth in 

the Clean Energy Standards Order and 

the Climate Leadership and Community 

Protection Act through a power 

purchase agreement (PPA) contract with 

the New York State Energy Research 

and Development Authority to deliver 

880 MW of offshore wind energy. 

Sunrise Wind may modify its PPA 

contract with NYSERDA to deliver up to 

924 MW of offshore wind energy.’’ 

BOEM is replacing that language with 

these corrected sentences: ‘‘This Project 

will help the State of New York achieve 

the aggressive clean energy goals set 

forth in the Clean Energy Standards 

Order and the Climate Leadership and 

Community Protection Act through an 

Offshore Wind Renewable Energy 

Certificate Purchase and Sale Agreement 

(OREC) with the New York State Energy 

Research and Development Authority to 

deliver 880 MW of offshore wind 

energy. Sunrise Wind has the ability 

under the OREC to deliver a maximum 

project capacity of 924 MW of offshore 

wind energy.’’ 

In the same edition of the Federal 

Register, on page 48765, first column, 

line 2, under the heading ‘‘Preliminary 

Proposed Action and Alternatives,’’ 

(which begins on previous page), BOEM 

included the sentence: ‘‘The wind 

turbine generator foundations may be 

monopiles or gravity base structures 

with associated support and access 

structures, in some combination or 

entirely of one kind.’’ 

BOEM is replacing that language with 

this corrected sentence: ‘‘The wind 

turbine generators will use monopile 

foundations and the OCS–DC will be on 

a piled jacket foundation.’’

Public Comments on the Proposed Final 

Judgment 

Pursuant to the requirements of the

therefore in the public interest. The 

United States will move the Court for 

entry of the proposed Final Judgment 

after the public comments and this 

response have been published as 

required by 15 U.S.C. 16(d).
