Service, National Oceanic and

ACTION: Announcement of revised
policy; delay of effective date.
AGENCY:
In accordance with a January
20, 2017, memo from the White House,
we, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
and the National Marine Fisheries
Service (Services), are delaying the
effective date of a policy we published
on December 27, 2016.
DATES: The effective date of the revised
policy that published on December 27,
2016, at 81 FR 95164, is delayed from
January 26, 2017, to March 21, 2017.

On
December 27, 2016, the Services
announced revisions to the Candidate
Conservation Agreements with
Assurances policy under the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended. We added a definition of ‘‘net
conservation benefit’’ to this policy and
eliminated references to the confusing
requirement of ‘‘other necessary
properties’’ to clarify the level of
conservation effort each agreement
needs to include in order to be
approved. The revisions to the policy
were to take effect on January 26, 2017.
On January 20, 2017, the White House
issued a memo instructing Federal
agencies to temporarily postpone the
effective date for 60 days after January
20, 2017, of any regulations or guidance
documents that have published in the
Federal Register but not yet taken effect,
for the purpose of ‘‘reviewing questions
of fact, law, and policy they raise.’’ We
are, therefore, delaying the effective date
of our revised policy published on
December 27, 2016, at 81 FR 95164 (see
DATES, above).

Authority: The authority for this action is
