SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00034 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 70779 Background On July 8, 1996, the Service received a petition dated June 30, 1996, from the National Trappers Association, Inc., Bloomington, Illinois. The petition requested that we delist the Mexican bobcat under the Act. On July 2, 2003, we published in the Federal Register (68 FR 39590) a positive 90-day finding on the National Trappers Association petition, thereby initiating a public comment period and status review for the species. Based on the comments received and status review, on May 19, 2005, we published in the Federal Register (70 FR 28895) a rule proposing to delist the Mexican bobcat under the Act. The public comment period on that proposed rule closed on August 17, 2005. In our final rule, we will address the comments received during that 90day comment period as well as the comments received during the reopening of the comment period initiated by this document. Public Comments Solicited The Service intends that any final action resulting from the proposed rule will be based on the most accurate and up-to-date information possible. Therefore, comments or suggestions from the public, other concerned governmental agencies, the scientific community, industry, or any other interested party concerning the proposed rule are hereby solicited. Comments particularly are sought concerning the taxonomic validity and population status of the Mexican bobcat, specifically the putative subspecies Lynx rufus escuinapae and not other subspecies or populations of bobcat in Mexico. We request that you do not resubmit comments sent to us during the previous comment period. Comments previously submitted will be incorporated into the public record as part of this comment period and will be fully considered in the final determination. Final action on the proposed rule will take into consideration the comments and any additional information received by the Service, and such communications may lead to a final action that differs from the proposed rule. Our practice is to make comments, including names and home addresses of respondents, available for public review during regular business hours. Commenters may request that we withhold their home addresses, and we will honor these requests to the extent allowable by law. In some circumstances, we may also withhold a commenter’s identity, as allowable by law. If you wish us to withhold your E:\FR\FM\23NOP1.SGM 23NOP1
