applications; request for comments.
AGENCY:
We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (Service), invite the
public to comment on applications for
permits to conduct activities intended to
enhance the propagation or survival of
endangered species. With some
exceptions, the Endangered Species Act
of 1973, as amended (ESA), prohibits
certain activities affecting endangered
and threatened species unless that
activity is covered under a Federal
permit authorizing take of the species or
authorizing otherwise prohibited
activities. The ESA also requires that we
invite public comment before issuing
these permits.
DATES: We must receive your written
comments by May 23, 2018.
ADDRESSES: Document availability:
Documents and other information

Background
The Endangered Species Act, as
amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)
prohibits certain activities affecting
endangered and threatened species
unless a Federal permit covers that
activity. 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 issued by the Service 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 that promote recovery,
enhancement of propagation or survival,
or interstate commerce (the latter only
in the event that it facilitates scientific
purposes or enhancment of propagation
of 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.
Permit Applications Available for

agencies, Tribes, and the public to
