Background

    Restoring an endangered or threatened animal or plant to the point 
where it is again a viable, secure member of its ecosystem is a primary 
goal of the Service's endangered species program. To help guide the 
recovery effort, the Service prepares recovery plans for the federally 
listed species where a plan will promote the conservation of the 
species. Recovery plans describe site-specific actions necessary for 
the conservation of the species; establish objective, measurable 
criteria which, when met, would result in a determination that the 
species no longer needs the protection of the Act; and provide 
estimates of the time and cost for implementing the needed recovery 
measures.
    The Act requires recovery plans for listed species, unless such a 
plan would not promote the conservation of a particular species. This 
is the first draft recovery plan for the Salt Creek tiger beetle. The 
Service will consider all information received during a public comment 
period, including peer review, when preparing a final recovery plan. We 
will summarize and respond to the issues raised by the public and peer 
reviewers in an appendix to the approved recovery plan.
    The Salt Creek tiger beetle was listed as a federal endangered 
subspecies on November 7, 2005 (70 FR 58335, October 6, 2005). This 
subspecies is currently limited to Lancaster County, Nebraska. Critical

areas. Accomplishing this strategy requires acquisition of land or

projects, and reintroductions.
