(YTFP) has submitted a Tribal Research
and Monitoring Plan (Tribal Plan) and
associated application to NMFS
pursuant to the limitation on take
prohibitions for actions conducted
under Tribal Plans promulgated under
section 4(d) of the Endangered Species
Act (ESA). The Tribal Plan and
associated application describe research
and monitoring activities that may affect
ESA-listed Southern Oregon/Northern
California Coast (SONCC) coho salmon
in California. The proposed research is
intended to increase knowledge of this
listed species and to help guide
management and conservation efforts.
This document serves to notify the
public that the proposed evaluation and
pending determination by the Secretary
of Commerce (Secretary) as to whether
the implementation of the Tribal Plan
will appreciably reduce the likelihood
of survival and recovery of SONCC coho
salmon is available for public comment.
DATES: Comments must be received at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Species Covered in This Notice
Coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch):
Threatened (70 FR 37160; June 28,
2005), naturally produced and
artificially propagated SONCC coho
salmon.
Background
The YTFP submitted a Tribal Plan to
NMFS for scientific research and
monitoring they propose to conduct
within the Lower Klamath River and its
tributaries, which are within the range
of SONCC coho salmon. The Tribal Plan
identifies a variety of research and
assessment activities intended to
provide the technical basis for fisheries
and watershed management, and
conserving and restoring salmon stocks
and their habitat. The majority of the
YTFP proposed research is motivated by
a need to improve understanding of
salmonid freshwater survival. Many of
the proposed activities are also intended
to provide information to help plan,
implement, and monitor habitat
protection and restoration efforts. The
Tribal Plan includes implementation,
monitoring, and evaluation procedures
designed to ensure that the research is
consistent with the objectives of the
ESA. The research activities described
in the Tribal Plan would take place over
a five-year period starting in 2019.
As required by a rule promulgated
under ESA section 4(d) related to Tribal
Plans (65 FR 42481, July 10, 2000, as
redesignated at 70 FR 37203, June 28,
2005; Tribal Plan 4(d) rule), the
Secretary is seeking public comment on
the proposed evaluation and pending
determination as to whether
implementation of the Tribal Plan will
appreciably reduce the likelihood of
survival and recovery of SONCC coho
salmon.
Authority
Under section 4 of the ESA, the
Secretary is required to adopt such
regulations as the Secretary deems
necessary and advisable for the
conservation of species listed as
threatened. The Tribal Plan 4(d) rule
states that the ESA section 9 take
E:\FR\FM\22JYN1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 140 / Monday, July 22, 2019 / Notices
prohibitions do not apply to Tribal
Plans that the Secretary determines will
not appreciably reduce the likelihood of
survival and recovery of the listed
species.
