Why do we conduct 5-year reviews?
Under the Act (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.),
we maintain Lists of Endangered and
Threatened Wildlife and Plants (which
we collectively refer to as the List).
Wildlife and plants on the List can be
found at https://ecos.fws.gov/tess_public/
pub/listedAnimals.jsp and https://
ecos.fws.gov/tess_public/pub/
listedPlants.jsp, respectively. Section
4(c)(2)(A) of the Act requires us to
review each listed species’ status at least
once every 5 years. Our regulations at 50
CFR 424.21 require that we publish a
notice in the Federal Register
announcing those species under active
review. For additional information
about 5-year reviews, refer to our fact
sheet at: https://www.fws.gov/

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Introduction
With this notice, we continue the CCP
planning process for the Iowa Wetland
Management District, which we began
by publishing a notice of intent in the
Federal Register (75 FR 7289) on
February 18, 2010. For more about the
initial process and the history of the
district, see that notice.
Background
The National Wildlife Refuge System
Administration Act of 1966, as amended
by the National Wildlife Refuge System
Improvement Act of 1997 (16 U.S.C.
668dd–668ee) (Administration Act),
requires us to develop a CCP for each
national wildlife refuge (including
wetland management districts). The
purpose in developing a CCP is to
provide the district manager with a 15year strategy for achieving district
purposes and contributing toward the
mission of the National Wildlife Refuge
System (NWRS), consistent with sound
principles of fish and wildlife
management, conservation, legal
mandates, and Service policies. In
addition to outlining broad management
direction on conserving wildlife and
their habitats, CCPs identify wildlifedependent recreational opportunities
available to the public, including
opportunities for hunting, fishing,
wildlife observation and photography,
and environmental education and
interpretation. We will review and
update the CCP at least every 15 years
in accordance with the Administration
Act.
Each unit of the NWRS was
established for specific purposes. We
use these purposes as the foundation for
developing and prioritizing the
management goals and objectives for
each unit within the NWRS mission,
and to determine how the public can
use each unit. The planning process is
a way for us and the public to evaluate
management goals and objectives that
will ensure the best possible approach
to wildlife, plant, and habitat
conservation, while providing for
wildlife-dependent recreation
opportunities that are compatible with
each unit’s establishing purposes and
the mission of the NWRS.
Additional Information
The EA/draft CCP, which includes
detailed information about the planning
PO 00000
Frm 00069

process, district, issues, and
management alternatives considered
and proposed, may be found at https://
www.fws.gov/midwest/planning/
iowawetlands/. There are
four alternative management options
considered in the EA. The Service’s
preferred alternative is reflected in the
draft CCP. The following regulation
would be implemented on the Service’s
fee title property within the district
under any alternative: ‘‘You may only
use or possess approved nontoxic shot
shells while in the field, including shot
shells used for hunting wild turkey.’’
The alternatives analyzed in detail
include:
• Alternative A, Current Management
(No Action): This no-action alternative
reflects the current management of the
Iowa WMD. It provides the baseline
against which to compare other
alternatives.
• Alternative B, Breeding Waterfowl:
This alternative focuses on managing for
breeding waterfowl by restoring
cropland to perennial grassland in the
uplands and restoring semi- or less
permanent pothole wetlands in the
lowlands. Food plots would be
eliminated from the district, because
they are not essential for breeding
waterfowl survival. Environmental
education, interpretation, and outreach
would remain at current levels, with
more emphasis on distributing a
consistent message for the entire
district. Public use opportunities would
remain limited to hunting, fishing, and
trapping.
• Alternative C, Migrating Waterfowl:
This alternative focuses on managing for
migrating waterfowl by restoring
cropland to perennial grassland in the
uplands. Restoration in the lowlands
would focus on semi- or less permanent
pothole wetlands important to the
restoration of semi-permanent to
shallow lakes. This strategy would
provide good water quality to support
native vegetation and invertebrates as
high-quality food for migrating
waterfowl. Some food plots would
remain within the district as an
additional food source. Environmental
education, interpretation, and outreach
would remain at current levels, with
more emphasis on distributing a
consistent message for the entire
district. Public use facilities (kiosks,
etc.) would be provided at key locations,
and other recreational opportunities
would be provided, in addition to
hunting, fishing, and trapping.
• Alternative D, Breeding Waterfowl
(Preferred Alternative): This alternative
has components from all other
alternatives. As in Alternative B, it
focuses on managing for breeding

SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), are
initiating 5-year reviews under the Endangered Species Act (Act), as
amended, for nine northeastern species. We will review the following
endangered species: Peter's Mountain mallow, Jesup's milk-vetch, James
spinymussel, sandplain gerardia, harperella, American chaffseed, and
rough rabbitsfoot. We will also review the threatened northeastern
beach tiger beetle and Virginia spiraea. A 5-year review is based on
the best scientific and commercial data available at the time of the
review. We are requesting submission of any such information that has
become available since the previous 5-year review for each species.
DATES: To ensure consideration, please send your written information by
October 3, 2013. However, we will continue to accept new information
about any listed species at any time.
ADDRESSES: For instructions on how and where to submit information, see
``Request for Information'' and ``Contacts'' under SUPPLEMENTARY
