<![CDATA[
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 214 / Monday, November 5, 2018 / Notices
the Washington State Department of
Natural Resources (WDNR) a revised
draft environmental impact statement
(RDEIS) addressing an amendment to
the 1997 WDNR State Lands Habitat
Conservation Plan (HCP) to cover the
implementation of a Long-Term
Conservation Strategy (LTCS) for the
marbled murrelet. The marbled murrelet
(Brachyamphus marmoratus), a seabird,
was listed as threatened in 1992 under
the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).
The RDEIS also addresses an
amendment to the ESA section 10
incidental take permit (ITP) for take of
marbled murrelet resulting from the
implementation of the LTCS. The RDEIS
is intended to satisfy the requirements
of both the National Environmental
Policy Act (NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et
seq.) and the Washington State
Environmental Policy Act. If approved,
the proposed LTCS will replace an
interim conservation strategy for the
marbled murrelet, which is currently
being implemented under the WDNR
HCP.
The RDEIS analyzes seven action
alternatives and a no action alternative.
If approved, the amended ITP would
authorize incidental take of the marbled
murrelet that would occur as a result of
implementation of the LTCS over the
remaining 50-year term of the WDNR
HCP. The scope of the proposed
amendment to the WDNR HCP and ITP,
and thus of the RDEIS, is exclusively
limited to consideration of the LTCS for
the marbled murrelet. A Federal
Register notice of availability (83 FR
45458) for the RDEIS was published for
a 60-day comment period on September
7, 2018.
In addition to this notice, the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
is also publishing a notice announcing
the extension of the public comment
period on the RDEIS, as required under
section 309 of the Clean Air Act (42
U.S.C. 7401 et seq.). The original public
comment period for this RDEIS is
scheduled to close on November 6,
2018. In order to give the public
additional time to review and comment
on the RDEIS addressing an amendment
to the 1997 WDNR State Lands HCP, the
FWS is extending the public comment
period. Comments previously submitted
on the RDEIS need not be resubmitted,
as they will be fully considered in
preparing the final RDEIS addressing an
amendment to the 1997 WDNR State
Lands HCP.

the original EIS and HCP, the interim
conservation strategy for the marbled
murrelet, and next steps in this process,

Public Comments
You may submit your comments and

in ADDRESSES. We specifically request
information and comments on the
following:
1. Biological information on the
marbled murrelet in the terrestrial and
marine environments;
2. Cumulative effects on the
environment that might influence the
status of the marbled murrelet in the
ESA listed range;
3. Resiliency of the alternatives in
providing current and future marbled
murrelet habitat in relation to climate
change and future natural disturbance
events such as fire and windstorms;
4. Adequacy of the distribution of
marbled murrelet habitat to provide
conservation over the remaining term of
the HCP;
5. Other aspects of the human
environment not already identified in
the DEIS that may be affected, pursuant
to NEPA regulations in the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) at 40 CFR
1506.6.
6. Other information and documents
related to the RDEIS that WDNR has
posted on their website at https://
www.dnr.wa.gov/long-termconservation-strategy-marbled-murrelet.
