Receipt of an Application for Extension
of an Incidental Take Permit for the
Red-Cockaded Woodpecker by the
Woodlands Group, LLC, in Livingston
Parish, LA
Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice.
rmajette on PROD1PC64 with NOTICES
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: On July 21, 2003, the Fish and
Wildlife Service (Service) issued an
incidental take permit (ITP) associated
with a habitat conservation plan (HCP)
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:35 Oct 01, 2007
Jkt 214001
under section 10(a)(1)(B) of the
Endangered Species Act of 1973 (Act)
(16 U.S.C. 1539), as amended, for the
incidental take of the federally
endangered red-cockaded woodpecker
(Picoides borealis) (RCW) to the
Woodlands Group, LLC (Permittee). The
permit (TE037661–0) was for a period of
four years and expired on July 31, 2007.
The requested permit extension by the
Permittee will extend the permit
expiration date nine years.
DATES: Written comments should be
sent to the Fish and Wildlife Service’s
Regional Office (see ADDRESSES) and
should be received on or before
November 1, 2007.
ADDRESSES: Persons interested in
reviewing the permit extension
application or other related documents
may obtain a copy by submitting a
written request to James Boggs, Acting
Field Office Supervisor, Fish and
Wildlife Service, 646 Cajundome
Boulevard, Suite 400, Lafayette,
Louisiana 70506. Documents will be
available for public inspection by
appointment during normal business
hours at the Fish and Wildlife Service’s
Regional Office, 1875 Century
Boulevard, Suite 200, Atlanta, Georgia
30345 (Attn: Aaron Valenta).
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Aaron Valenta, Regional HCP
Coordinator (see ADDRESSES), telephone:
404/679–4144, or James Boggs (see
ADDRESSES), telephone 337/291–3115.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We
specifically request information, views,
and opinions from the public via this
notice on the Federal action, including
the identification of any other aspects of
the human environment not already
identified in the Environmental
Assessment (EA). Further, we
specifically solicit information
regarding the adequacy of the HCP as
measured against our ITP issuance
criteria found in 50 CFR parts 13 and
17.
The permit authorizes take of RCWs
on approximately 99 of 971 acres owned
by the Permittee in Livingston Parish,
Louisiana. The proposed take would be
incidental to otherwise lawful activities,
including timber harvest and typical
forest management activities on the
Permittee’s property. The extension
request covers the same activities
covered by the HCP and existing permit.
There will be no increase in take beyond
that anticipated in the original permit.
The previously prepared HCP
specifies the impacts that are likely to
result from the taking and the measures
the Permittee has taken to minimize and
mitigate such impacts. The ITP
authorized take of three RCW groups on
PO 00000
Frm 00042
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the Permittee’s property incidental to
timber management activities. The
mitigation and minimization measures
in the HCP include: No take of RCWs
during the breeding season;
establishment of three replacement
groups on Big Branch Marsh National
Wildlife Refuge by provisioning
recruitment territories; translocating
juveniles fledged on the Permittee’s
property; monitoring the formation of
breeding pairs; funding an endowment
for habitat management (prescribed
burning); and, translocating adult RCWs
from the Permittee’s property to Fort
Polk Military Reservation in Louisiana
prior to harvesting timber. The
Permittee successfully completed the
required minimization and mitigation
measures outlined in the HCP by July
2004.
RCW nesting and foraging habitat
were removed in one cluster incidental
to the timber harvest that was
completed in that cluster. Due to poor
market conditions, the Permittee had
not harvested timber in the remaining
two RCW clusters by the time the ITP
expired and thus requests extension of
the ITP. If renewed, annual reporting
will no longer be required because the
Permittee has completed the specified
minimization and mitigation
requirements. However, all other permit
terms and conditions will remain the
same, and no additional take will be
authorized. The existing HCP satisfies
all statutory issuance criteria and is
therefore applicable to the extension of
this ITP.
If you wish to comment, you may
submit comments by any one of several
methods. Please reference permit
number TE037661–0, The Woodlands
Group, LLC, in such comments. You
may mail comments to the Fish and
Wildlife Service’s Regional Office (see

that we have received your internet
message, contact us directly at either
telephone number listed previously (see

Service office listed (see ADDRESSES).
Our practice is to make 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 address from
the administrative record. We will
honor such requests to the extent
allowable by law. There may also be
other circumstances in which we would

We solicit public review and comment on each of these recovery
permit applications. Our practice is to make 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. There also may be circumstances in which
we would withhold from the record a respondent's identity, as allowable
by law. If you wish us to withhold your name and/or address, you must
state this prominently at the beginning of your comment, but you should
be aware that we may be required to disclose your name and address
pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act. 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. Comments
and materials received will be available for public inspection, by
appointment, during normal business hours at the above address.
