Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Commerce.

ACTION: Issuance of Modification 3 to Permit 825 held by the Columbia 
River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission (P513).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    On September 15, 1993 notice was published (58 FR 48354) that an 
application had been filed by the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish 
Commission for a modification to Permit 825 to take listed Snake River 
chinook salmon as authorized by the Endangered Species Act of 1973 
(ESA) (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543) and the NMFS regulations governing listed 
fish and wildlife permits (50 CFR parts 217-222).
    Notice is hereby given that on August 9, 1994, as authorized by the 
provisions of the ESA, NMFS issued Modification 3 to Permit Number 825 
(P513) to take listed Snake River spring/summer chinook salmon subject 
to certain conditions set forth therein. The modification increases the 
take numbers for a cryopreservation study, but restricts the take to 
post-spawned adult male fish.
    Issuance of this permit, as required by the ESA, was based on a 
finding that such permit: (1) Was applied for in good faith; (2) will 
not operate to the disadvantage of the listed species which is the 
subject of this permit; (3) is consistent with the purposes and 
policies set forth in section 2 of the ESA. This permit was also issued 
in accordance with and is subject to parts 217-222 of Title 50 CFR, the 
NMFS regulations governing listed species permits.
    The application, permit, and supporting documentation are available 
for review by interested persons in the following offices, by 
appointment:
    Office of Protected Resources, NMFS, 1335 East-West Highway, Silver 
Spring, MD 20910-3226 (301-713-2322); and
    Environmental and Technical Services Division, NMFS, NOAA, 911 
North East 11th Ave., Room 620, Portland, OR 97232 (503-230-5400).

    Dated: August 9, 1994.

Deputy Director, Office of Protected Resources, National Marine 
Fisheries Service.
