SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

November 26, 2008, notice was 

published in the Federal Register (73 

FR 72027) that a modification of Permit 

No. 1506–01, issued June 1, 2006 (71 FR 

31165), had been requested by the 

above–named individual. The requested 

modification has been granted under the 

authority of 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). 

Permit No. 1506–01 authorizes the 

permit holder to study neonate and 

juvenile loggerhead (Caretta caretta), 

green (Chelonia mydas), Kemp’s ridley 

(Lepidochelys kempii), hawksbill 

(Eretmochelys imbricata) and 

leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea) sea 

turtles in the waters of the Gulf of 

Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean off the 

coast of Florida. The purpose of the 

research is to identify developmental 

habitat, evaluate the extent of ingestion 

of marine debris, and provide insight 

into juvenile sea turtle movements and 

dive patterns. Dr. Witherington may 

capture up to 250 loggerhead, 100 green, 

50 hawksbill, 50 Kemp’s ridley, and 10 

leatherback sea turtles by handheld dip 

nets annually. All turtles are measured 

and released. A subset of green and 

loggerhead turtles may be transported to 

a lab and examined with high resolution 

magnetic resonance interferometry or 

computerized tomography, held for 3–4 

days and released to determine their 

level of anthropogenic debris ingestion. 

Annually, four of each species of green, 

hawksbill, and Kemp’s ridley sea turtles 

may have sonic transmitters and data 

loggers attached to measure movements 

and dive patterns, be recaptured after 24 

hours to remove the transmitter and 

released. 

The modification authorizes 

researchers to conduct the following 

activities annually on turtles authorized 

for capture: flipper and passive 

integrated transponder tag all animals,

100 green, and 50 hawksbill sea turtles, 

and lavage up to 50 loggerhead, 50 

green, 50 hawksbill, 50 Kemp’s ridley, 

and 10 leatherback sea turtles. Imaging 

activities and attachment of sonic 

transmitters and data loggers are no 

longer authorized for any species. No 

increase in the total number of turtles 

taken is authorized. These additional 

activities will provide information on 

the genetic origin, diet, and movement 

of sea turtles in this area. The 

amendment is valid until the permit 

expires on March 31, 2010. 

Issuance of this modification, as 

required by the ESA 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 or 

threatened species, and (3) is consistent 

with the purposes and policies set forth 

in section 2 of the ESA.
