Description:This environmental assessment (EA) evaluates the impacts of the proposed buoy retrieval and transport activities, which would be authorized under the existing PMNM co-trustee conservation and management permit number PMNM-2016-001 issued on December 21, 2015 pursuant to Monument regulations at 50 CFR Part 404. The permit was issued by NOAA's Office of National Marine Sanctuaries, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, and the State of Hawai'i, as Co-Trustee management agencies for the PMNM. NOAA's Office of National Marine Sanctuaries has prepared the environmental assessment for its authorization of the buoy retrieval and transport activities, and for the associated transiting of the salvage vessel from port in Honolulu, Hawai'i to the location of the buoy in PMNM. The assessment finds that the individual and cumulative impacts of this action are not significant. Accordingly, the environmental assessment has resulted in a finding of no significant impact--Cover letter summary.
