39500 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 126 / Friday, July 1, 2022 / Notices 

under sections 101(a)(5)(A) and (D) of 

the MMPA for specified activities other 

than military readiness activities. The 

MMPA does not define small numbers 

and so, in practice, where estimated 

numbers are available, NMFS compares 

the number of individuals taken to the 

most appropriate estimation of 

abundance of the relevant species or 

stock in our determination of whether 

an authorization is limited to small 

numbers of marine mammals. When the 

predicted number of individuals to be 

taken is fewer than one-third of the 

species or stock abundance, the take is 

considered to be of small numbers. 

Additionally, other qualitative factors 

may be considered in the analysis, such 

as the temporal or spatial scale of the 

activities. 

For all species other than Steller sea 

lions, the proposed take in each year is 

below one third of the population for all 

marine mammal stocks (Table 10). In 

Year 1 and Year 2, the proposed take of 

Steller sea lions, as a proportion of the 

stock abundance is 36.23 percent and 

55.74 percent, respectively, if all takes 

are assumed to occur for unique 

individuals. In reality, it is unlikely that 

all takes would occur to different 

individuals. The project area represents 

a small portion of the stock’s overall 

range (from Alaska to California (Muto 

et al., 2019)) and based on observations 

at other Steller sea lion haulouts, it is 

reasonable to expect individual animals 

to be present at the haulout and in the 

water nearby on multiple days during 

the activities. Therefore, it is more likely 

that there will be multiple takes of a 

smaller number of individuals within 

the project area, such that the number 

of individuals taken would be less than 

one third of the population. 

Based on the analysis contained 

herein of the proposed activity 

(including the proposed mitigation and 

monitoring measures) and the 

anticipated take of marine mammals, 

NMFS preliminarily finds that small 

numbers of marine mammals would be 

taken relative to the population size of 

the affected species or stocks in Year 1. 

NMFS also preliminarily finds that 

small numbers of marine mammals 

would be taken relative to the 

population size of the affected species 

or stocks in Year 2. 

Unmitigable Adverse Impact Analysis 

and Determination 

There are no relevant subsistence uses 

of the affected marine mammal stocks or 

species implicated by this action. 

Therefore, NMFS has determined that 

the total taking of affected species or 

stocks would not have an unmitigable 

adverse impact on the availability of 

such species or stocks for taking for 

subsistence purposes. 

Endangered Species Act 

Section 7(a)(2) of the Endangered 

Species Act of 1973 (ESA: 16 U.S.C. 

1531 et seq.) requires that each Federal 

agency insure that any action it 

authorizes, funds, or carries out is not 

likely to jeopardize the continued 

existence of any endangered or 

threatened species or result in the 

destruction or adverse modification of 

designated critical habitat. To ensure 

ESA compliance for the issuance of 

IHAs, NMFS consults internally 

whenever we propose to authorize take 

for endangered or threatened species, in 

this case with the West Coast Regional 

Office. 

NMFS is proposing to authorize take 

of humpback whales from the Mexico 

and Central America DPSs, which are 

listed under the ESA. The Permits and 

Conservation Division has requested 

initiation of section 7 consultation with 

the West Coast Region for the issuance 

of this IHA. NMFS will conclude the 

ESA consultation prior to reaching a 

determination regarding the proposed 

issuance of the authorization. 

Proposed Authorization 

As a result of these preliminary 

determinations, NMFS proposes to issue 

two sequential IHAs to the Corps for 

conducting the Sand Island Pile Dikes 

Repairs Project in the lower Columbia 

River, beginning in August 2023, with 

the previously mentioned mitigation, 

monitoring, and reporting requirements 

incorporated. A draft of the proposed 

IHAs can be found at: https://

www.fisheries.noaa.gov/national/ 

marine-mammal-protection/incidentaltake-authorizations-constructionactivities. 

Request for Public Comments 

We request comment on our analyses, 

the proposed authorization, and any 

other aspect of this notice of 2 proposed 

sequential IHAs for the proposed Sand 

Island Pile Dikes Repairs Project. We 

also request comment on the potential 

renewal of these proposed IHAs as 

described in the paragraph below. 

Please include with your comments any 

supporting data or literature citations to 

help inform decisions on the request for 

these IHAs or subsequent renewal IHAs. 

On a case-by-case basis, NMFS may 

issue a one-time, one-year renewal IHA 

following notice to the public providing 

an additional 15 days for public 

comments when (1) up to another year 

of identical or nearly identical activities 

as described in the Description of 

Proposed Activities section of this 

notice is planned or (2) the activities as 

described in the Description of 

Proposed Activities section of this 

notice would not be completed by the 

time the IHA expires and a renewal 

would allow for completion of the 

activities beyond that described in the 

Dates and Duration section of this 

notice, provided all of the following 

conditions are met: 

• A request for renewal is received no 

later than 60 days prior to the needed 

renewal IHA effective date (recognizing 

that the renewal IHA expiration date 

cannot extend beyond one year from 

expiration of the initial IHA). 

• The request for renewal must 

include the following: 

(1) An explanation that the activities 

to be conducted under the requested 

renewal IHA are identical to the 

activities analyzed under the initial 

IHA, are a subset of the activities, or 

include changes so minor (e.g., 

reduction in pile size) that the changes 

do not affect the previous analyses, 

mitigation and monitoring 

requirements, or take estimates (with 

the exception of reducing the type or 

amount of take). 

(2) A preliminary monitoring report 

showing the results of the required 

monitoring to date and an explanation 

showing that the monitoring results do 

not indicate impacts of a scale or nature 

not previously analyzed or authorized. 

Upon review of the request for 

renewal, the status of the affected 

species or stocks, and any other 

pertinent information, NMFS 

determines that there are no more than 

minor changes in the activities, the 

mitigation and monitoring measures 

will remain the same and appropriate, 

and the findings in the initial IHA 

remain valid.
