Tender Details

The national oceanic and atmospheric administration (noaa), alaska fisheries science center (afsc), marine mammal laboratory (mml) conducted annual cetacean surveys within the inland waters of southeast alaska from 1991 through 2015 with a research emphasis on harbor porpoises, killer whales, and humpback whales. Mml's current focus is harbor porpoises because of bycatch issues with the salmon driftnet fishery around wrangell and zarembo. Harbor porpoises are protected by the marine mammal protection act, and noaa is mandated to manage bycatch. To determine current abundance and collect information on stock structure, mml will conduct a harbor porpoise survey in 2019. All major inland waters of southeast alaska may be surveyed during the course of this project which could include, but is not limited to: stephen's passage, lynn canal, icy strait, cross sound, chatham strait, sumner strait, clarence strait, frederick sound and coastal waters between cape spencer and dixon entrance.

The scientific party will conduct a variety of research activities such as the following: visual observations for harbor porpoises and other cetaceans under strict line-transect protocols and collecting water samples in the water footprint of harbor porpoise. Line-transect surveys allows data on both harbor porpoise abundance and trends to be obtained by the scientific party. During line-transect operations, scientific observers rotate among three positions logging in all cetacean sightings, environmental conditions, and track line information. The survey will begin and end in juneau, alaska. This 22-26 day survey period will occur in july/august 2019 starting on or around the 20th of july but no later than the 25th of july 2019.
