| Summary: | Dear Mr. Payne: Please find enclosed an application from the City of San Diego for Incidental Harassment Authority by Level B harassment for small numbers of harbor seals, possibly sea lions and elephant seals during demolition and construction activities of the Children's Pool Lifeguard Station at La Jolla, California. We appreciate your help in preparation and look forward to the timely and safe accomplishment of the required activities under Sections 101(a) (5) (A) and (D) of the MMPA (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.). The City has pursued open and interactive internal, as well as, public process to develop the plans which include mitigation considering the pinnipeds present at nearby sites (e.g. no construction activities during harbor seal pupping and weaning season and visual barriers to shield activities from beach view). Our staff and our consultant, Dr. Doyle Hanan, have conferred with your staff at Southwest Region as the City progressed through its procedures of planning and approval of this project (please see attached Negative Declaration). Sincerely |
