Description:

"The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) proposes to issue a scientific research permit for takes of listed sea turtles under the authority of the Endangered Species Act. The purpose of File No. 15606 is to assess sea turtle foraging activity, examine population dynamics, characterize bioaccumulation at a Texas Superfund site, and document impacts of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill on sea turtle assemblages. The research would result in the short-term harassment of target sea turtles and may lead to the accidental mortality of a minor number of animals. However, these impacts would be negligible at the population and species level and the research is not expected to significantly impact the human environment"--Cover letter.
