ACTION: Notice of receipt of application for a scientific research permit (P560). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Notice is hereby given that Oregon State University (OSU) has applied in due form for a permit to take listed species as authorized by the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543) and the NMFS regulations governing listed fish and wildlife permits (50 CFR parts 217-227). OSU requests authorization to take adult and juvenile Snake River spring/summer chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in order to investigate the potential effects of climate change on thermal complexity and biotic integrity of streams. Emphasis will be placed on the seasonal intrusion of non-native coolwater and warmwater fish species into the historic habitats of native salmonids, including Snake River spring/summer chinook salmon. OSU proposes to capture, handle, release, and snorkel near juvenile Snake River spring/summer chinook salmon. Adult Snake River spring/ summer chinook salmon would possibly be disturbed during these activities. OSU requests authorization for this research through September 30, 1995.
