Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 153 / Wednesday, August 8, 2018 / Notices
Type of Request: Regular (extension of
a currently approved information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 66.
Average Hours per Response: 30
minutes for reports on whales struck or
on recovery of dead whales, including
providing the information to the
relevant Native American whaling
organization; 5 minutes for the relevant
Native American whaling organization
to type in each report; and 5 hours for
the relevant Native American whaling
organization to consolidate and submit
reports.
Burden Hours: 50.
Needs and Uses: This request is for
extension of a current information
collection.
Native Americans may conduct
certain aboriginal subsistence whaling
under the Whaling Convention Act in
accordance with the provisions of the
International Whaling Commission
(IWC). In order to respond to obligations
under the International Convention for
the Regulation of Whaling, the IWC, and
the Whaling Convention Act, whaling
captains participating in these
operations must submit certain
information to the relevant Native
American whaling organization about
strikes on and catch of whales. Anyone
retrieving a dead whale is also required
to report. Captains must place a
distinctive permanent identification
mark on any harpoon, lance, or
explosive dart used, and must also
provide information on the mark and
self-identification information. The
relevant Native American whaling
organization receives the reports,
compiles them, and submits the
information to NOAA.
The information is used to monitor
the hunt and to ensure that quotas are
not exceeded. The information is also
provided to the IWC, which uses it to
monitor compliance with its
requirements.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households; state, local, or tribal
governments.
Frequency: On occasion, monthly and
annually.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
obtain or retain benefits.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Steven J. Sample, Deputy Director of the
Military Aviation and Installation
Assurance Siting Clearinghouse, at 703–
571–0076 during normal business hours
Monday through Friday, from 9:00 a.m.
to 5:00 p.m. (EDT) or by email:
[email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
183a(d)(2)(B) of title 10, United States
Code, provides that, solely for purposes
of informing preliminary reviews under
section 183a(c)(1) and early outreach
efforts under section 183a(c)(5), DoD
shall identify distinct geographic areas
selected as proposed locations for
projects filed, or for projects that are
reasonably expected to be filed in the
near future, with the Secretary of
Transportation pursuant to section
44178 of title 49, United States Code,
where the Secretary of Defense can
demonstrate such projects could have
an adverse impact on military
operations and readiness, including
military training routes, and categorize
the risk of adverse impact in such areas.
Section 183a defines adverse impact on
military operations and readiness as any
impact upon military operations and
readiness, including flight operations,
research, development, testing, and
evaluation and training, that is
demonstrable and likely to impair or
degrade the ability of the armed forces
to perform their warfighting missions.
The identification of a GAOC does not
equate to a determination that a project
in the GAOC would result in an
unacceptable risk to the national
security of the United States. It only
means that such a project would have
an adverse impact and requires further
review by the Military Aviation and
Installation Assurance Siting
Clearinghouse.
The Boardman GAOC is identified
due to possible effects upon two main
DoD military missions. The Naval
Weapons Systems Training Facility at
Boardman and its associated airspace
are the U.S. Navy’s primary resource for
all airborne electronic attack aircraft air

combat maneuver training. This training
includes low level aircraft operations.
Tall structures, such as wind turbines
and electrical transmission lines,
constructed under Restricted Airspace
(R–5701) and Military Training Routes
will prevent the U.S. Navy from
fulfilling the training mission. Secondly,
the Fossil common air route
surveillance radar (CARSR) (a long
range radar) in Fossil, Oregon, is a vital
resource for the North American
Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD).
NORAD defends Canada and the United
States against air threats, and an
accurate ‘‘air picture’’ is essential for
NORAD to accomplish its air defense
mission. Rotating wind turbine blades
can appear as unwanted false targets
(clutter) and desensitize the radar,
resulting in degraded target acquisition
and tracking. Much of the information
and data used to establish the GAOC for
the Fossil CARSR is not available for
public review due to security concerns.
The NAS Patuxent River GAOC is
identified due to possible effects upon
two DoD military missions. The
missions that could be degraded or
impaired due to wind turbines are the
Advanced Dynamic Aircraft
Measurement System (ADAMS) and the
Digital Airport Surveillance Radar
(DASR), both located at NAS Patuxent
River. ADAMS is a national test asset
and the Department of Navy’s only
open-air dynamic radar cross section
(RCS) measurement facility supporting
all military services as well as other
government agencies. ADAMS is used to
make precise ground-to-air radar
signature measurements during aircraft
maneuvers. The DASR is used to
facilitate critical safety of flight control
instructions for all DoD and civilian
aircraft that operate within the confines
of the NAS Patuxent River Air Traffic
Control (ATC) Area of Responsibility
(AoR). ATC services require the ability
to use radar to positively identify targets
that enter, work within, and depart the
AoR to prevent mid-air collision and
loss of life. The DASR is also utilized by
ATC to monitor air traffic that might
attempt to illegally enter the
Washington, DC Flight Restricted Zone,
thereby posing a significant threat to the
national security. Rotating wind turbine
blades can appear as unwanted false
targets (clutter) and desensitize the
radar, resulting in degraded target
acquisition and tracking for both the
ADAMS and DASR at NAS Patuxent
River.
Comments received by the end of the
comment period will be considered
when making the final findings on the
designation of these proposed GAOCs.
Any comment, if applying to only one
