The Permits Division proposes to issue a scientific research permit (Appendix A) pursuant to section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA and section 104 of the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) of 1972, as amended (16 USC 1361 et seq.) to MML, 7600 Sand Point Way NE, Seattle, WA (Responsible Party: John Bengtson, Ph.D.). The purpose of the proposed permit is to allow an exception to the moratoria and prohibition on takes established under the ESA and MMPA in order to allow the applicant to conduct scientific research on cetaceans (both ESA-listed and non-ESA-listed), and in doing so incidentally harass several pinniped species (both ESA-listed and non-ESA-listed)"--Introduction.

Book excerpt: "On April, 20, 2010 the NMFS Office of Protected Resources Permits and Conservation Division submitted a draft Environmental Assessment to the NMFS’ Office of Protected Resouces ESA Interagency Cooperation Division for the propsed issuance of permit number (No.) 14122: Biology of Large Whales in Alaskan Waters to Jan Straley and seven additional permits to other scientific researchers. The Permits and Conservation Division subsequently consulted with us on the issuance of the proposed research permit and on July 14, 2010, we issued our biological opinion concluding that the issuance of these permits was not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of currently ESA-listed species, nor adversely modify designated critical habitat. Permit No. 14122 was a five year permit, which was later given a one year extension, and ends on July 31, 2016. The issuance of permit No.18529 by the Permits and Conservation Division would be a renewal of Jan Straley's existing permit activities with several modifications to the proposed research activities"--Background.

Book excerpt: The oil spill disaster that occurred when the Exxon Valdez ran aground has become part of the iconography of ecological disaster. This book synthesizes confidential data, recently released by the US government, concerning the effects of this spill on marine mammals (ie. sea otters, harbour seals, killer whales and humpback whales). Many of the contributors were on site within 24 hours of the spill and their results establish a baseline worst case scenario. These data should assist marine biologists, pathologists, toxicologists, environmentatlists, engineers, and coastal planners in assessing the nature of this disaster.
