The basis for our preliminary determination is contained in an Environmental Action Statement. We are accepting comments on the permit application, the proposed CCAA, and the Environmental Action Statement. Candidate Conservation Agreements With Assurances (CCAA) Under a Candidate Conservation Agreement with Assurances (CCAA), participating landowners voluntarily undertake management activities on their property to enhance, restore, or maintain habitat benefiting species that are proposed for listing or candidates for listing under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (the Act; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), or those species that may become candidates. Candidate Conservation Agreements with Assurances, and the subsequent permits that are issued pursuant to section 10(a)(1)(A) of the Act, encourage private and other non-Federal property owners to implement conservation efforts for species by assuring property owners that they will not be subjected to increased land use restrictions as a result of efforts to attract or increase the numbers or distribution of a listed species on their property, if that species becomes listed under the Act in the future. Candidate Conservation Agreement with Assurances permit application requirements and issuance criteria are found in 50 CFR 17.22(d) and 17.32(d). About This Proposed CCAA The purpose of this CCAA is for the Service to partner with the UDWR and participating non-Federal property owners (Participants) to implement conservation measures for least chub in a manner that is consistent with our Policy on CCAAs (June 17, 1999; 64 FR 32726) and applicable regulations. The conservation goal of this CCAA is to reduce the threats to least chub and its habitat and increase the number of viable, stable, and secure least chub populations within the species’ historic range. The CCAA project area includes all non-Federal lands in the Bonneville Basin of Utah encompassed by the current and historic distribution of least chub, including potentially suitable habitats within the following Utah counties: Beaver, Box Elder, Cache, Davis, Garfield, Iron, Juab, Kane, Millard, Morgan, Piute, Rich, Salt Lake, Sanpete, Sevier, Summit, Tooele, Utah, E:\FR\FM\10DEN1.SGM 10DEN1
