**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**
We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), have issued permits to conduct certain activities with endangered and threatened species and marine mammals in response to permit applications that we received under the authority of section 10(a)(1)(A) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 ESA; (16 U.S.C. 1531 *et seq.* )
After considering the information submitted with each permit application and the public comments received, we issued the requested permits subject to certain conditions set forth in each permit. For each application for an endangered species, we found that (1) the application was filed in good faith, (2) the granted permit would not operate to the disadvantage of the endangered species, and (3) the granted permit would be consistent with the purposes and policy set forth in section 2 of the ESA.
**Availability of Documents**
The permittees' original permit application materials, along with public comments we received during public comment periods for the applications, are available for review.
