enrolled property to baseline conditions
at the end of the Agreement, as defined
in the Agreement. The Agreement
specifies the beneficial management
activities to be carried out on the
enrolled property, and schedule for
implementing those activities. The
Agreement is expected to promote the
recovery of CCC coho salmon and CCC
steelhead within the Applicant’s
Kellogg Ranch.
The Agreement requires that the
Applicant maintain baseline condition
for the covered species habitat on the
enrolled property. NMFS has reviewed
the baseline condition for the enrolled
property as it is defined in the
Agreement. The Agreement also
contains a monitoring component that
requires the Applicant to ensure
compliance with the terms and
conditions of the Agreement, and that
the baseline levels of habitat for the
covered species occurs on the enrolled
property. Results of the monitoring
efforts will be provided to NMFS by the
Applicant in an annual report for the
duration of the 25-year permit term.
Upon approval of this Agreement, and
consistent with the NMFS’s Safe Harbor
Policy, NMFS will issue an
Enhancement of Survival Permit to the
Applicant. The Enhancement of
Survival Permit will authorize the
Applicant to take CCC coho salmon and
CCC steelhead incidental to the
implementation of the covered activities
specified in the Agreement, incidental
to other lawful uses of the enrolled
property, and to return to baseline
conditions if desired at the end of the
Agreement. In addition to meeting other
criteria, actions to be performed under
the Enhancement of Survival Permit
must not jeopardize the existence of
Federally listed species.
This notice is provided pursuant to
section 10(c) of the ESA. NMFS will
evaluate the application, associated
documents, and comments submitted to
determine whether the application
meets the requirements of section 10(a)
of the ESA and Federal regulations. The
final permit decision will not be made
until after the end of the 30-day
comment period. NMFS will publish
notice of its final action in the Federal
Register.
