Milestone Extension: Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) Incidental Take Authorization (DOC – NOAA/NMFS)

The applicant informed NOAA/NMFS staff that their submission of the MMPA incidental take authorization application would be delayed 10 months later than previously scheduled.  Due to this delay, the entire MMPA process is delayed by 10 months.  This delay also affects the ESA/EFH milestones due to dependencies between ESA and MMPA milestones, and dependencies between ESA and EFH milestones.  This applicant delay also affects BOEM's EIS schedule, which is in process of being revised per dependencies with EIS milestones and milestones associated with our actions.
