SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Authority 

Section 102 of the Maritime 

Transportation Security Act (MTSA) of 

2002 (Pub. L. 107–295) added section 

70112 to Title 46 of the U.S. Code, and 

authorized the Secretary of the 

Department in which the Coast Guard is 

operating to establish Area Maritime 

Security Advisory Committees for any 

port area of the United States. (See 33 

U.S.C. 1226; 46 U.S.C. 70112; 33 CFR 

1.05–1, 6.01; Department of Homeland 

Security Delegation No. 0170.1). The 

MTSA includes a provision exempting 

these AMSCs from the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act (FACA), Public Law 92– 

436, 86 Stat. 470 (5 U.S.C. App.2). 

San Diego AMSC Mission 

The AMSCs assists the Federal 

Maritime Security Coordinator in the 

development, review, update, and 

exercising of the AMS Plan for their area 

of responsibility. Such matters include, 

but are not limited to; Identifying 

critical port infrastructure and 

operations; Identifying risks (threats, 

vulnerabilities, and consequences); 

Determining mitigation strategies and 

implementation methods; Developing 

strategies to facilitate the recovery of the 

MTS after a Transportation Security 

Incident; Developing and describing the 

process to continually evaluate overall 

port security by considering 

consequences and vulnerabilities, how 

they may change over time, and what 

additional mitigation strategies can be 

applied; and Providing advice to, and 

assisting the Federal Maritime Security 

Coordinator in developing and 

maintaining the Area Maritime Security 

Plan. 

The San Diego Area Maritime 

Security Committee was chartered by 

the Commander, Sector San Diego to 

study and consider issues related to 

security in the Port of San Diego, in 

addition to reviewing the proposed Area 

Maritime Security Plan and serve as a 

link to communicating threats to 

waterway users in the Port of San Diego 

and Southern California, and identifying 

and quantifying those threats. It serves 

to protect the Port of San Diego through 

improved security procedures and 

communication and as a forum to 

coordinate security procedures to 

decrease the vulnerability of resources 

in the Port of San Diego. It shall serve 

as an interface between regulators and 

industry and will assist governmental 

agencies to implement policies and 

procedures to improve security in the 

Port of San Diego. Details regarding the 

specific objectives of the San Diego 

Maritime Security Committee can be 

found in the charter. 

AMSC Composition 

The composition of an AMSC, to 

include the San Diego AMSC, is 

prescribed under 33 CFR 103.305. 

Pursuant to that regulation, members 

may be selected from the Federal, 

Territorial, or Tribal government; the 

State government and political 

subdivision of the State; local public 

safety, crisis management, and 

emergency response agencies; law 

enforcement and security organizations; 

maritime industry, including labor; 

other port stakeholders having a special 

competence in maritime security; and 

port stakeholders affected by security 

practices and policies. Members of the 

AMSC should have at least five years of 

experience related to maritime or port 

security operations. 

AMSC Membership 

The San Diego AMSC has fourteen 

members. Members of the AMSC should 

have at least five years of experience

operations. We are seeking to fill five

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the 

Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), 

announce receipt of an application from 

Park Square Enterprises, LLC (Fruitland 

Park) (applicant) for an incidental take 

permit (ITP) under the Endangered 

Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 

16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). The applicant 

requests the ITP to take the federally 

listed sand skink (Neoseps reynoldsi) 

incidental to the construction of a 

residential development (project) in 

Lake County, Florida. We request public 

comment on the application, which 

includes the applicant’s HCP, and on 

the Service’s preliminary determination 

that this HCP qualifies as ‘‘low effect,’’ 

categorically excluded under the 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.). To make 

this determination, we used our 

environmental action statement and 

low-effect screening form, both of which 

are also available for public review. 

Project 

The applicant requests a 5-year ITP to 

take sand skinks through the conversion 

of approximately 7.20 acres (ac) of 

occupied sand skink foraging and 

sheltering habitat incidental to the 

construction of a residential 

development on a 176.47-ac parcel in 

Sections 9 and 16, Township 19 South, 

Range 24 East, Lake County, Florida, 

identified by Parcel ID numbers 09–19– 

24–0400–046–00000, 09–19–24–0400– 

046–00002, 09–19–24–0400–046–00100, 

16–19–24–0001–000–06500, 16–19–24– 

0001–000–00200, 16–19–24–0001–000– 

00401, 16–19–24–0001–000–05300, 16– 

19–24–0001–000–00400, 16–19–24– 

0002–000–00600, and 16–19–24–0002– 

000–05400. The applicant proposes to 

mitigate for take of the sand skinks by 

the purchase of 14.40 credits from Lake 

Livingston Conservation Bank or 

another Service-approved conservation 

bank. The Service would require the 

applicant to purchase the credits prior 

to engaging in activities associated with 

the project on the parcel. 

Public Availability of Comments 

Before including your address, phone 

number, email address, or other 

personal identifying information in your 

comment, be aware that your entire 

comment, including your personal 

identifying information, may be made 

available to the public. While you may 

request that we withhold your personal 

identifying information, we cannot 

guarantee that we will be able to do so. 

Our Preliminary Determination 

The Service has made a preliminary 

determination that the applicant’s 

project—including land clearing, 

infrastructure building, landscaping, 

ground disturbance, site preparation 

activities and the proposed mitigation 

measures—would individually and 

cumulatively have a minor or negligible 

effect on the sand skink and the 

environment. Therefore, we have 

preliminarily concluded that the ITP for 

this project would qualify for categorical 

exclusion and that the HCP is low effect 

under our NEPA regulations at 43 CFR 

46.205 and 46.210. A low-effect HCP is 

one that would result in (1) minor or 

negligible effects on federally listed, 

proposed, and candidate species and 

their habitats; (2) minor or negligible 

effects on other environmental values or 

resources; and (3) impacts that, when 

considered together with the impacts of 

other past, present, and reasonable 

foreseeable similarly situated projects, 

would not result in significant 

cumulative effects to environmental 

values or resources over time. 

Next Steps 

The Service will evaluate the 

application and the comments to 

determine whether to issue the 

requested permit. We will also conduct 

an intra-Service consultation pursuant 

to section 7 of the ESA to evaluate the 

effects of the proposed take. After 

considering the preceding and other 

matters, we will determine whether the
