SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the ESA (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), the Service maintains a list of endangered and threatened wildlife and plant species at 50 CFR 17.11 (for animals) and 17.12 (for plants). Section 4(c)(2)(A) of the ESA requires that we conduct a review of listed species at least once every 5 years. Then, on the basis of such reviews under section 4(c)(2)(B), we determine whether or not any species should be removed from the list (delisted), or reclassified from endangered to threatened or from threatened to endangered. Delisting a species must be supported by the best scientific and commercial data available and only considered if such data substantiates that the species is neither endangered nor threatened for one or more of the following reasons: (1) The species is considered extinct; (2) the species is considered to be recovered; and/or (3) the original data available when the species was listed, or the interpretation of such data, were in error. Any change in Federal classification would require a separate rulemaking process. The regulations in 50 CFR 424.21 require that we publish a notice in the Federal Register announcing those species currently under active review. This notice announces our active review of the following species that are currently listed as endangered: Delmarva Peninsula fox squirrel, listed in 1967 (32 FR 4001); northeastern bulrush, 1991 (56 FR 21091–21096); and Furbish lousewort, 1978 (43 FR 17910– 17916). In addition, we are requesting submission of any such information that has become available since the original listing of the following species as threatened: Chittenango ovate amber snail, 1978 (43 FR 28932–28935), and Virginia round-leaf birch, originally listed as endangered in 1978 (43 FR 17910–17916) and reclassified as threatened in 1994 (59 FR 59173– 59177). Public Solicitation of New Information To ensure that our 5-year reviews are complete and based on the best available scientific and commercial information, we are soliciting new information from the public, concerned governmental agencies, Tribes, the scientific community, industry, environmental entities, and any other interested parties concerning the status of the Delmarva Peninsula fox squirrel, northeastern bulrush, Furbish lousewort, Chittenango ovate amber snail, and Virginia round-leaf birch.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the ESA (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), the 
Service maintains a list of endangered and threatened wildlife and 
plant species at 50 CFR 17.11 (for animals) and 17.12 (for plants). 
Section 4(c)(2)(A) of the ESA requires that we conduct a review of 
listed species at least once every 5 years. Then, on the basis of such 
reviews under section 4(c)(2)(B), we determine whether or not any 
species should be removed from the list (delisted), or reclassified 
from endangered to threatened or from threatened to endangered. 
Delisting a species must be supported by the best scientific and 
commercial data available and only considered if such data 
substantiates that the species is neither endangered nor threatened for 
one or more of the following reasons: (1) The species is considered 
extinct; (2) the species is considered to be recovered; and/or (3) the 
original data available when the species was listed, or the 
interpretation of such data, were in error. Any change in Federal 
classification would require a separate rulemaking process. The 
regulations in 50 CFR 424.21 require that we publish a notice in the 
Federal Register announcing those species currently under active 
review.
    This notice announces our active review of the following species 
that are currently listed as endangered: Delmarva Peninsula fox 
squirrel, listed in 1967 (32 FR 4001); northeastern bulrush, 1991 (56 
FR 21091-21096); and Furbish lousewort, 1978 (43 FR 17910-17916). In 
addition, we are requesting submission of any such information that has 
become available since the original listing of the following species as 
threatened: Chittenango ovate amber snail, 1978 (43 FR 28932-28935), 
and Virginia round-leaf birch, originally listed as endangered in 1978 
(43 FR 17910-17916) and reclassified as threatened in 1994 (59 FR 
59173-59177).

Public Solicitation of New Information

    To ensure that our 5-year reviews are complete and based on the 
best available scientific and commercial information, we are soliciting 
new information from the public, concerned governmental agencies, 
Tribes, the scientific community, industry, environmental entities, and 
any other interested parties concerning the status of the Delmarva 
Peninsula fox squirrel, northeastern bulrush, Furbish lousewort, 
Chittenango ovate amber snail, and Virginia round-leaf birch.

[[Page 47026]]

    A 5-year review considers the best scientific and commercial data 
and all new information that has become available since the listing 
determination or most recent status review. Categories of requested 
information include (A) Species biology, including but not limited to, 
population trends, distribution, abundance, demographics, and genetics; 
(B) habitat conditions, including but not limited to, amount, 
distribution, and suitability; (C) conservation measures that have been 
implemented that benefit the species; (D) threat status and trends; and 
(E) other new information, data, or corrections, including but not 
limited to, taxonomic or nomenclatural changes, identification of 
erroneous information contained in the list, and improved analytical 
methods.
    If you wish to provide information for these 5-year reviews, you 
may submit your comments and materials to the respective lead offices 
and biologists (see ADDRESSES section). To the extent consistent with 
applicable law, 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. Materials received will be 
available for public inspection, by appointment, during normal business 
hours (see ADDRESSES section).
    Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or 
other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be 
aware that your entire comment--including personal identifying 
information--may be made publicly available at any time. While you may 
ask us in your comment to withhold personally identifying information 
from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.
