FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Erin Markin or Amy Hapeman, (301) 427-

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The subject permit is requested under the 
authority of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16 
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) and the regulations governing the taking, 
importing, and exporting of endangered and threatened species (50 CFR 
parts 222-226).
    The Virginia Aquarium and Marine Science Center proposes to 
continue sea turtle research in the Chesapeake Bay and mid-Atlantic 
Ocean to enhance conservation and management of sea turtles in 
estuarine and marine waters. Specific research objectives are to (1) 
study the behavior, distribution, health, and nutrition and compare the 
relative abundance of green, Kemp's ridley, and loggerhead sea turtles 
in the Chesapeake Bay, Long Island Sound, and U.S. mid-Atlantic waters; 
and (2) investigate the survival and behavior of green, loggerhead, and 
Kemp's ridley sea turtles affected by human activities in the study 
area. Annually, up to 30 green, 30 Kemp's ridley, and 30 loggerhead sea 
turtles would be captured (hand, dip, tangle, or pound nets, or capture 
under another authority), biologically sampled (blood, tissue), and 
tagged (passive integrated transponder (PIT), flipper, and acoustic or 
satellite transmitters (by epoxy or drilling the carapace)), measured, 
weighed, and photographed. One leatherback sea turtle may be 
opportunistically taken during research and would receive a temporary 
carapace mark, PIT tag, and flipper tags as well as be blood sampled, 
measured, and photographed. The permit would be valid for 10 years.

    Dated: June 13, 2018.

Deputy Chief, Permits and Conservation Division, Office of Protected 
Resources, National Marine Fisheries Service.
