FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Amy Hapeman or Carrie Hubard, 301
4278401.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The subject permit is requested under the authority of the Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972, as amended MMPA; 16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq., and the regulations governing the taking and importing of marine mammals 50 CFR
part 216.
The applicant proposes to film humpback whales and dolphins to produce a documentary to celebrate Jean-Michel Cousteaus 75 years of diving and educate the public about the protection, conservation, and management of humpback whales and other cetaceans in Hawaii waters.
Filmmakers would annually harass up to 105 humpback whales, 700 bottlenose dolphins, 700 pantropical spotted dolphins, and 700 spinner dolphins for photography/videography aerial, topside and underwater using two vessels, divers, and two unmanned aircraft systems. Filming is expected to occur within a two-week period in February or March each year. The permit would be valid for two years.
It has come to the agencys attention that the 2016 interim final humpback approach rule 50 CFR 216.19; 81 FR
62010, September 8, 2016 does not explicitly exempt permits issued under section 104c6 of the MMPA from its prohibitions. It is not the agencys intent to preclude the issuance of permits or authorizations consistent with the requirements of the MMPA. We interpret the rule to allow issuance of

these permits. Consistent with this interpretation, it has been our practice to continue to issue section 104c6
permits that are in compliance with the MMPAs requirements and our review procedures, as evidenced by issuance of four such permits since the rules effective date. However, to eliminate any potential ambiguity, we intend to revise the rule to explicitly clarify that photography permits issued under section 104c6 of the MMPA are exempt from the prohibitions on approach.
In compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 42
U.S.C. 4321 et seq., an initial determination has been made that the activity proposed is categorically excluded from the requirement to prepare an environmental assessment or environmental impact statement.
Concurrent with the publication of this notice in the Federal Register, NMFS is forwarding copies of the application to the Marine Mammal Commission and its Committee of Scientific Advisors.
