11 <p type="1">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 222-226).</p>

12 <p type="1">Dr. Foley requests a 5-year scientific research permit to: (1) monitor the abundance of loggerhead and green sea turtles; (2) characterize the aggregations of loggerhead, Kemp's ridley, and hawksbill sea turtles; and (3) determine the movements, behaviors, habitat-use, and reproductive status of loggerhead sea turtles. Research would occur in Florida Bay and the Everglades National Park. Researchers would approach up to 50 green sea turtles annually during non-linear transect surveys and capture by hand up to 170 loggerhead, 10 Kemp's ridley, and 5 hawksbill sea turtles annually during capture-mark-recapture studies. Captured turtles would be examined, measured, photographed, weighed, flipper tagged, passive integrated transponder tagged, marked with paint, and blood sampled to determine and monitor sex ratios, genetic identities, health and reproductive status, growth, and subsequent movements and behaviors. Skin and carapace samples would be collected from up to 50 of the captured loggerheads annually. Loggerheads greater than 75 cm straight carapace length would be examined by ultrasound. A subset of loggerheads would be transported, examined with laparoscopy or ultrasonography, and held for up to 24 hours annually. Testicular biopsies would be taken from up to 25 adult male loggerheads annually during laparoscopies. A subset of loggerheads also would have a satellite transmitter attached to the carapace before release. All captured turtles would be released at the site of capture.</p>
