{"abstract":"NMFS received a request from Community Offshore Wind, LLC (COSW) for the renewal of their incidental harassment authorization (IHA) (hereinafter, the \"initial IHA\") to take marine mammals incidental to marine site characterization surveys in coastal waters off of New Jersey and New York in the New York Bight, specifically within the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) Commercial Lease of Submerged Lands for Renewable Energy Development on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Lease Area OCS-A 0539 (Lease Area) and associated Export Cable Route (ECR) survey area (ECR Area). Pursuant to the Marine Mammal Protection Act, prior to issuing the initial IHA, NMFS requested comments on both the proposed IHA and the potential for renewing the initial authorization if certain requirements were satisfied. The renewal requirements have been satisfied, and NMFS is now providing an additional 15-day comment period to allow for any additional comments on the proposed renewal that were not previously provided during the initial 30-day comment period.","action":"Notice; request for comments on proposed renewal incidental harassment authorization.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE","name":"Commerce Department","id":54,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/commerce-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/54","parent_id":null,"slug":"commerce-department"},{"raw_name":"National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration","name":"National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration","id":361,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/national-oceanic-and-atmospheric-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/361","parent_id":54,"slug":"national-oceanic-and-atmospheric-administration"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2024/08/21/2024-18608.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"89 FR 67592","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2024-09-05","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Comments and information must be received no later than September 5, 2024.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["RTID 0648-XE150"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2024-18608","effective_on":null,"end_page":67596,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2024/08/21/2024-18608.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/08/21/2024-18608/takes-of-marine-mammals-incidental-to-specified-activities-taking-marine-mammals-incidental-to","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2024-18608?publication_date=2024-08-21","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2024-08-21/2024-18608/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":5,"page_views":{"count":92,"last_updated":"2026-10-23 02:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2024-08-21/pdf/2024-18608.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2024-18608.pdf?1724157919","publication_date":"2024-08-21","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2024/08/21/2024-18608.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2024-08-21T08:10:42Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":67592,"subtype":null,"title":"Takes of Marine Mammals Incidental to Specified Activities; Taking Marine Mammals Incidental to Marine Site Characterization Surveys in the New York Bight","toc_doc":"Marine Site Characterization Surveys in the New York Bight","toc_subject":"Taking or Importing of Marine Mammals:\n","topics":[],"type":"Notice","volume":89}
