Background
On October 28, 1998 (63 FR 57610),
we listed six aquatic snails, in the
Mobile River Basin, as threatened
(painted rocksnail, round rocksnail, lacy
elimina) or endangered (cylindrical
lioplax, flat pebblesnail, plicate
rocksnail) under the Act. These six
snails are endemic to portions of the
Mobile River Basin in central Alabama.
The cylindrical lioplax, flat pebblesnail,
and round rocksnail are found in the
Cahaba River drainage; the lacy elimina
and painted rocksnail are in the Coosa
River drainage; and the plicate rocksnail
is in the Black Warrior River drainage.
These snails require rock, boulder, or
cobble substrates and clean, unpolluted
water and are found on shoals and
riffles of large streams and rivers.
Impoundment and water quality
degradation have eliminated the six
snails from 90 percent or more of their
historic habitat. Known populations are
restricted to small portions of stream
drainages. These surviving populations
are currently threatened by pollutants
such as sediments and nutrients that
wash into streams from the land surface.
Restoring an endangered or
threatened animal or plant to the point
where it is again a secure, selfsustaining member of its ecosystem is a
primary goal of the endangered species
program. To help guide the recovery
effort, we are preparing recovery plans
for most listed species. Recovery plans
describe actions considered necessary
for conservation of the species, establish
criteria for downlisting or delisting, and
estimate time and cost for implementing
recovery measures.
The Act requires the development of
recovery plans for listed species, unless
such a plan would not promote the
conservation of a particular species.
Section 4(f) of the Act requires us to
provide a public notice and an
opportunity for public review and
comment during recovery plan
development. We will consider all
information presented during a public
comment period prior to approval of
each new or revised recovery plan. We
and other Federal agencies will take
these comments into account in the
course of implementing approved
recovery plans.
The objective of this technical agency
draft plan is to provide a framework for
the recovery of these six aquatic snails
so that protection under the Act is no
longer necessary. As reclassification and
recovery criteria are met, the status of
these species will be reviewed and they
will be considered for reclassification or
removal from the Federal List of

and Plants (50 CFR part 17).
Public Comments Solicited
We solicit written comments on the
recovery plan described. We will
consider all comments received by the
date specified above prior to final
approval of the draft recovery plan.
Please submit electronic comments as
an ASCII file format and avoid the use
of special characters and encryption.
Please also include your name and
return address in your e-mail message.
If you do not receive a confirmation
from the system that we have received
your e-mail message, contact us directly
by calling our Mississippi Field Office
(see ADDRESSES section).
Our practice is to make all comments,
including names and home addresses of
respondents, available for public review
during regular business hours.
Individual respondents may request that
we withhold their home addresses from
the record, which we will honor to the
extent allowable by law. In some
circumstances, we would withhold also
from the rulemaking record a
respondent’s identity, as allowable by
law. If you wish for us to withhold your
name and/or address, you must state
this prominently at the beginning of
your comments. However, we will not
consider anonymous comments. We
will make all submissions from
organizations or businesses, and from
individuals identifying themselves as
representatives or officials of
organizations or businesses, available
for public inspection in their entirety.

of this parcel in trust status for gaming
is consistent with the Indian Gaming
Regulatory Act, 25 U.S.C. 2719 (a)(1),
because the parcel is located within the

Reservation as the reservation existed
on October 17, 1988.
