SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Act (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)
prohibits certain activities with respect
to endangered and threatened species
unless a Federal permit allows such
activity. Along with our implementing
regulations in the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) at 50 CFR 17, the Act
provides for certain permits, and
requires that we invite public comment
before issuing these permits for
endangered species.
A permit granted by us under section
10(a)(1)(A) of the Act authorizes the
permittee to conduct activities
(including take or interstate commerce)
with respect to U.S. endangered or
threatened species for scientific
purposes or enhancement of
propagation or survival. Our regulations
implementing section 10(a)(1)(A) of the
Act for these permits are found at 50
CFR 17.22 for endangered wildlife
species, 50 CFR 17.32 for threatened
wildlife species, 50 CFR 17.62 for
endangered plant species, and 50 CFR
17.72 for threatened plant species.
