FXES11130900000 178 FF09E42000]
RIN 1018–BB91
Endangered and Threatened Wildlife
and Plants; Removal of the Lesser
Long-Nosed Bat From the Federal List
of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife
Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
Under the authority of the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended, we, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, are removing the lesser longnosed bat (Leptonycteris curasoae
yerbabuenae) from the Federal List of
Endangered and Threatened Wildlife
due to recovery. This determination is
based on a thorough review of the best
available scientific and commercial
information, which indicates that the
threats to this subspecies have been
eliminated or reduced to the point that
the subspecies has recovered and no
longer meets the definition of
endangered or threatened under the Act.
DATES: The rule is effective May 18,
2018.
SUMMARY:
Copies of documents: This
final rule and supporting documents,
including the Species Status
Assessment (SSA) are available on
https://www.regulations.gov in Docket
No. FWS–R2–ES–2016–0138. In
addition, the supporting file for this
final rule will be available for public
inspection, by appointment, during
normal business hours, at the Arizona
Ecological Services Field Office, 2321
W. Royal Palm Road, Suite 103,
Phoenix, AZ 85021.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Steve Spangle, Field Supervisor, U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service, Arizona
Ecological Services Field Office, 2321
W. Royal Palm Road, Suite 103,
Phoenix, AZ 85021; by telephone (602–
242–0210); or by facsimile (602–242–
