include manual removal. Once
nonnative plants are removed by the
Applicant, the Service will be
responsible for restoration of
endangered and native plants to the
Enrolled Parcels. The Service will
enhance areas located away from the
transmission towers by planting or
seeding appropriate native plants,
including Contra Costa wallflower,
Antioch Dunes evening primrose, and
host plants for the Lange’s metalmark
butterfly. Other natives may be planted
or seeded into the sites as well. The
majority of native plant restoration
activities will occur in areas away from
the two transmission towers such that
when it is necessary for the Applicant
to conduct maintenance on the towers,
the overall damage to the habitat and
probable take of endangered species will
be minimized.
The Service expects that the proposed
restoration activities will result in an
increase in host plants for the Lange’s
metalmark butterfly throughout the
Enrolled Property thus resulting in a net
conservation benefit for this species.
Additionally, the restoration activities
will decrease threats to the Contra Costa
wallflower and the Antioch Dunes
evening primrose by reducing the
amount of invasive, nonnative plants
that outcompete the federally
endangered plants.
The proposed duration of the
Enhancement of Survival permit would
be for 5 years, and would authorize the
incidental taking of the Covered Species
associated with: The restoration,
enhancement, and maintenance of
suitable habitat for the Covered Species;
routine activities associated with
maintenance and operation of the two
transmission towers; and the potential
future return of the Enrolled Property to
baseline conditions. The Agreement also
contains a monitoring component that
will provide information on the success
of weed eradication and will also assist
the Refuge in early detection of new
invasive plant species. Results of these
monitoring efforts will be provided to
the Service by the Applicant in an
annual report.
Upon approval of this Agreement, and
consistent with the Service’s Safe
Harbor Policy (64 FR 32717), the Service
would issue an Enhancement of
Survival permit to the Applicant. This
permit will authorize the Applicant to
take the Covered Species incidental to
the implementation of the management
activities specified in the Agreement,
incidental to other lawful uses of the
property including normal, routine land
management activities, and incidental to
return to baseline conditions if desired.
Although take of listed plant species is

not prohibited under the Act, and
therefore cannot be authorized under an
enhancement of survival permit, plant
species may be included on a permit in
recognition of the net conservation
benefit provided to them under a safe
harbor agreement. An applicant would
receive assurances under our ‘‘No
Surprises’’ regulations (50 CFR
17.22(c)(5) and 17.32(c)(5)) for all
species included in the Enhancement of
Survival permit. In addition to meeting
other criteria, actions to be performed
under an Enhancement of Survival
permit must not jeopardize the
existence of federally listed fish,
wildlife, or plants.

do so.
The Service will evaluate this permit
application, associated documents, and
comments submitted thereon to
determine whether the permit
application meets the requirements of
section 10(a) of the Act and NEPA
regulations. If the Service determines
that the requirements are met, we will
sign the proposed Agreement and issue
an enhancement of survival permit
under section 10(a)(1)(A) of the Act to
the Applicant for take of the Covered
Species incidental to otherwise lawful
activities in accordance with the terms
of the Agreement. The Service will not
make our final decision until after the
end of the 30-day comment period and
will fully consider all comments
