ACTION:
Notice of issuance of permits.
We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, have issued permits to
conduct activities with endangered and
threatened species under the authority
of the Endangered Species Act, as
amended (ESA). With some exceptions,
the ESA prohibits activities involving
listed species unless a Federal permit is
issued that allows such activity.

applications for the permits listed in
this notice is available online at

We, the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, have
issued permits to conduct certain
activities with endangered and
threatened species in response to permit
applications that we received under the
authority of section 10(a)(1)(A) of the
Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.; ESA).
After considering the information
submitted with each permit application
and the public comments received, we
issued the requested permits subject to
certain conditions set forth in each
permit. For each application for an
endangered species, we found that (1)
the application was filed in good faith,
(2) the granted permit would not operate
to the disadvantage of the endangered
species, and (3) the granted permit
would be consistent with the purposes
and policy set forth in section 2 of the
ESA.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Availability of Documents
The permittees’ original permit
application materials, along with public
comments we received during public
comment periods for the applications,

ESA), prohibits certain activities with
endangered and threatened species
unless the activities are specifically
authorized by a Federal permit. The
ESA and our implementing regulations
in part 17 of title 50 of the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) provide for
the issuance of such permits and require
that we invite public comment before
issuing permits for activities involving
endangered species.
A permit granted by us under section
10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA authorizes the
permittee to conduct activities with U.S.
endangered or threatened species for
scientific purposes, enhancement of
propagation or survival, or interstate
commerce (the latter only in the event
that it facilitates scientific purposes or
enhancement of propagation or
survival). Our regulations implementing
section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA 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.
Applications Available for Review and
Comment

Federal agencies and the public to

Please refer to the permit number when

other information the applicants have
submitted with the applications are

requirements of the Privacy Act (5
U.S.C. 552a) and Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552).

permit requests are for the recovery and
enhancement of propagation or survival
of the species in the wild.
