production, integration, and testing organizations, including lessons learned Contribute to recommend policies and best practices for the automated validation scope in appropriate NIST
documents Support a roadmap for migrating organizations and their customers from the current human-effort-centric CMVP to the new automated program, including recommended practices based on lessons learned Broadly support improvements in cryptographic modules across all vendors participating in the CMVP
through voluntary sharing of test data e.g., seeds or test vectors that result in failures to improve regression testing for module vendors In their letters of interest, responding organizations need to acknowledge the importance of and commit to provide:
1. Access for all participants project teams to component interfaces and the organizations experts necessary to make functional connections among security platform components.
2. Support for development and demonstration of the Automation of the Cryptographic Module Validation Program CMVP project, which will be based on the most recent versions of FIPS 140, SP 800140, and Handbook HB 15017 and conducted in a manner consistent with the most recent version of the following standards and guidance: FIPS 200, SP 80037, SP 800
52, SP 80053, SP 80063, and SP
180016. Additional details about the Automation of the Cryptographic Module Validation Program CMVP
project are available at https
www.nccoe.nist.gov/projects/buildingblocks/applied-cryptography/cmvpautomation.
NIST cannot guarantee that all of the products proposed by respondents will be used in the demonstration. Each prospective participant will be expected to work collaboratively with NIST staff and other project participants under the terms of the consortium CRADA in the development of the Automation of the Cryptographic Module Validation Program CMVP project. Prospective participants contribution to the collaborative effort will include assistance in establishing the necessary interface functionality, connection and set-up capabilities and procedures, demonstration harnesses, environmental and safety conditions for use, integrated platform user instructions, and demonstration plans and scripts necessary to demonstrate the desired capabilities. Each participant will train NIST personnel, as necessary, to operate

its product in capability demonstrations. Following successful demonstrations, NIST will publish a description of the security platform and its performance characteristics sufficient to permit other organizations to develop and deploy security platforms that meet the security objectives of the Automation of the Cryptographic Module Validation Program CMVP
project. These descriptions will be public information.
Under the terms of the consortium CRADA, NIST will support development of interfaces among participants products by providing IT
infrastructure, laboratory facilities, office facilities, collaboration facilities, and staff support to component composition, security platform documentation, and demonstration activities.
The dates of the demonstration of the Automation of the Cryptographic Module Validation Program CMVP
project capability will be announced on the NCCoE website at least two weeks in advance at https nccoe.nist.gov/.
The expected outcome will demonstrate how the components of the solutions that address Automation of the Cryptographic Module Validation Program CMVP can enhance security capabilities that provide assurance of mitigation of identified risks while continuing to meet industry sectors compliance requirements. Participating organizations will gain from the knowledge that their products are interoperable with other participants offerings.

Notice; issuance of an Incidental Harassment Authorization.

ACTION:

In accordance with the regulations implementing the Marine Mammal Protection Act MMPA as amended, notification is hereby given that NMFS has issued an IHA to the United States Navy to incidentally harass, by Level B harassment only, marine mammals during pile driving/
removal activities associated with the Fuel Pier Inboard Pile Removal Project in San Diego Bay, California.
DATES: This Authorization is effective from January 15, 2022 through January 14, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

Background The MMPA prohibits the take of marine mammals, with certain exceptions. Sections 101a5A and D of the MMPA 16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq. direct the Secretary of Commerce as delegated to NMFS to allow, upon request, the incidental, but not intentional, taking of small numbers of marine mammals by U.S. citizens who engage in a specified activity other than commercial fishing within a specified geographical region if certain findings are made and either regulations are issued or, if the taking is limited to harassment, a notice of a proposed incidental take authorization may be provided to the public for review.
Authorization for incidental takings shall be granted if NMFS finds that the taking will have a negligible impact on the species or stocks and will not have an unmitigable adverse impact on the availability of the species or stocks for taking for subsistence uses where relevant. Further, NMFS must prescribe the permissible methods of taking and other means of effecting the least practicable adverse impact on the affected species or stocks and their habitat, paying particular attention to rookeries, mating grounds, and areas of similar significance, and on the availability of the species or stocks for taking for certain subsistence uses referred to in shorthand as
