NMFS is
charged with the recovery of Pacific
salmon and steelhead species listed
under the Endangered Species Act
(ESA). Recovery means that listed
species and their ecosystems are
restored, and their future secured, so
that the protections of the ESA are no
longer necessary. The ESA specifies that
recovery plans must include: (1) A
description of management actions
necessary to achieve the plan’s goals for
the conservation and survival of the
species; (2) objective, measurable
criteria which, when met, would result
in the species being removed from the
list; and (3) estimates of time and costs
required to achieve the plan’s goal and
the intermediate steps towards that goal.
Section 4(f) of the ESA, as amended in
1988, requires that public notice and an
opportunity for public review and
comment be provided during recovery
plan development. NMFS is hereby
soliciting relevant information on
SONCC Coho Salmon ESU populations
and their freshwater/marine habitats. In
addition, NMFS is soliciting comment
on the contents of the proposed
recovery plan.
Persons wishing to review the Draft
Plan can obtain an electronic copy (i.e.,
CD ROM) from Ms. Cynthia Anderson
by calling (707) 825–5162 or by
emailing a request to
Cynthia.Anderson@noaa.gov with the
subject line ‘‘CD ROM Request for
SONCC Coho Salmon Draft Recovery
Plan.’’ Electronic copies of the Draft
Plan are also available on line on the
