forests and require a diversity of food
resources and the availability of sizespecific cavities for nesting. The thickbilled parrot primarily feeds on seeds of
several pine species, and to a lesser
extent on acorns and terminal buds of
pine trees (Snyder et al. 1999). As an
obligate cavity nester, the thick-billed
parrot needs cavities typically found in
large-diameter pines and snags. Because
of their specialized habitat needs, thickbilled parrot populations have
experienced significant historical
declines, corresponding to a drastic loss
of high-elevation mixed-conifer forests,
mainly from a legacy of logging. Only 1
percent of the old-growth forests is
estimated to remain, supporting small
populations of thick-billed parrots
concentrated in a handful of sites.
Threats to the thick-billed parrot
include loss of habitat, primarily driven
by extensive logging of large mature
pines, removal of nesting snags (Snyder
et al. 1999), and, to a lesser degree,
catastrophic forest fires (PACE 2009);
low numbers of individuals and small
remaining populations, leaving them
vulnerable to stochastic events; removal
of birds from the wild in Mexico for the
illegal pet trade; and climate change,
based on projections for the
Southwestern United States and
northern Mexico predicting warmer,
drier, and more drought-like conditions
(Hoerling and Eischeid 2007; Seager et
al. 2007). Extirpation of the thick-billed
parrot in the United States was likely
caused by excessive, unregulated
shooting (Snyder et al. 1999). The
recovery plan addendum recommends
protection of currently occupied habitat;
additional research to understand
relationships between habitat, migration
patterns, and population dynamics;
development of a standardized
monitoring protocol; development of
replacement nesting habitat; verification
of occupied wintering habitat;
development of forest management
plans; and the enforcement of existing
environmental and species collection
laws. The plan recognizes the need to
manage these forest landscapes in both
the United States and Mexico to
maximize resources for the species.
Recovery Plan Goals
The objective of an agency recovery
plan is to provide a framework for the
recovery of a species so that protection
under the Act is no longer necessary. A
recovery plan includes scientific
information about the species and
provides criteria and actions necessary
for us to be able to reclassify the species
to threatened status or remove it from
the List. Recovery plans help guide our
recovery efforts by describing actions

we consider necessary for the species’
conservation, and by estimating time
and costs for implementing needed
recovery measures. To achieve its goals,
this draft recovery plan addendum
identifies the following objectives:
• Support the thick-billed parrot
throughout its range in perpetuity.
• Maintain habitat conditions
necessary to provide feeding, nesting,
and wintering habitat for the thickbilled parrot through time.
• Assess the potential for the United
States to support naturally dispersing or
actively relocated thick-billed parrots,
including a review of U.S. historical
habitat, current habitat management,
and habitat connectivity with Mexico.
The draft recovery plan addendum
contains recovery criteria based on
maintaining and increasing population
numbers and habitat quality and
quantity. The draft recovery plan
addendum focuses on protecting
populations, managing threats,
maintaining habitat, monitoring
progress, and building partnerships to
facilitate recovery.
As the thick-billed parrot meets
recovery criteria, we will review the
subspecies’ status and consider
downlisting, and, ultimately, removal
from the List.
Request for Public Comments
Section 4(f) of the Act requires us to
provide public notice and an
opportunity for public review and
comment during recovery plan
development. It is also our policy to
request peer review of recovery plans
(July 1, 1994; 59 FR 34270). In an
appendix to the approved recovery plan,
we will summarize and respond to the
issues raised by the public and peer
reviewers. Substantive comments may
or may not result in changes to the
recovery plan; comments regarding
recovery plan implementation will be
forwarded as appropriate to Federal or
other entities so that they can be taken
into account during the course of
implementing recovery actions.
Responses to individual commenters
will not be provided, but we will
provide a summary of how we
addressed substantive comments in an
appendix to the approved recovery plan.
We invite written comments on the
draft recovery plan addendum. In
particular, we are interested in
additional information regarding the
current threats to the species and the
costs associated with implementing the
recommended recovery actions. We
provide an English translation of the
PACE in Appendix B of the addendum;
however, we will not address comments
specific to the content of the PACE, as

availability of a draft Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) for the General
Management Plan (GMP) for Fort
Matanzas National Monument
(Monument), Florida.
Consistent with NPS laws,
regulations, and policies and the
purpose of the Monument, the draft EIS/
GMP describes the NPS preferred
alternative—Alternative B—to guide the
management of the Monument over the
next 15 to 20 years. The preferred
alternative incorporates various
management prescriptions to ensure
protection, access and enjoyment of the
Monument’s resources.
An up-to-date GMP is needed to
address how visitors access and use the
Monument and the facilities needed to
support those uses, how resources are
managed, and how the NPS manages its
operations. Recent studies have
enhanced the NPS’s understanding of
resources, resource threats, and visitor
use in the Monument.
DATES: The NPS will accept comments
from the public on the draft EIS/GMP
for at least 60 days, starting from the
date the Environmental Protection
Agency publishes this Notice of
Availability. The date, time, and
location of the public meetings on the
draft EIS/GMP will be announced
through the NPS Planning,
Environment, and Public Comment
(PEPC) Web site: https://parkplanning.
nps.gov/FOMA and media outlets.
ADDRESSES: Electronic copies of the
