Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 194 / Monday, October 7, 2019 / Notices
The applicant has agreed to include
the following minimization measures:
• Feathering turbine blades at all
projects below manufacturer’s cut-in
speeds at night for the entire active
season for bats. Feathering below cut-in
speeds is a way of minimizing the
rotational speed of turbine blades when
not producing energy.
• Minimizing the rotational speed of
turbine blades until wind speeds reach
5.0 meters per second when
temperatures are above 50 degrees
Fahrenheit from mid-July through
September at four facilities with the
highest risk to covered bat species.
• Removing carrion and increasing
landowner education efforts to reduce
attractants to bald eagles.
• Carrying out a fatality monitoring
and adaptive management program to
adjust conservation measures if needed
to ensure compliance with the ITP and
HCP.
The mitigation measures include the
following commitments:
• Protecting and restoring a minimum
of 1,309 acres of bat habitat and 42
artificial structures for bat use.
• Protecting and restoring additional
bat habitat up to a total of 3,200 acres,
and 50 artificial structures, if needed, to
compensate for projected future take
based on the monitoring program
results.
• Providing funding to manage and
monitor all mitigation lands.
• Providing funding for conservation
activities to immediately benefit bald
eagles to mitigate for take of bald eagles.
• Providing mitigation funding in
advance of take so that mitigation
implementation stays ahead of impacts
to covered species.
Background
The applicant has applied for an ITP
under the ESA that would authorize
incidental take of four bat species and
bald eagles and would be in effect for a
period of 30 years. The proposed
incidental take of bats and eagles would
occur from lawful, non-Federal
activities from the applicant’s operation
of existing wind energy generation
facilities within the permit area. The
HCP permit area includes lands used for
operations of 22 projects in Iowa where
the applicant has existing wind power
facilities. The plan area includes the
permit area, and also the rest of Iowa,
to include all areas that may be
influenced by the HCP, including
mitigation activities. The final EIS
considers the direct, indirect, and
cumulative effects of implementing the
HCP, including measures to minimize
and mitigate such impacts to the
maximum extent practicable.

Section 9 of the ESA and its
implementing regulations prohibit the
‘‘take’’ of animal species listed as
endangered or threatened. (16 U.S.C.
1538) Take is defined under the ESA as
to ‘‘harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot,
wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect
listed animal species, or to attempt to
engage in such conduct’’(16 U.S.C.
1532(19)). Under section 10(a)(1)(B) of
the ESA, the Service may issue permits
to authorize incidental take of listed
species. Incidental take is defined by
the ESA as take that is incidental to, and
not the purpose of, carrying out an
otherwise lawful activity.
Section 10(a)(1)(B) of the ESA
contains provisions for issuing
incidental take permits to non-Federal
entities for the incidental take of
endangered and threatened species,
provided the following criteria are met:
(a) The taking will be incidental; (b) the
applicant will minimize and mitigate, to
the maximum extent practicable, the
impact of such taking; (c) the applicant
will develop an HCP and ensure that
adequate funding for the plan will be
provided; (d) the taking will not
appreciably reduce the likelihood of the
survival and recovery of the species in
the wild; and (e) the applicant will carry
out any other measures that the
Secretary of the Interior may require as
being necessary or appropriate for the
purposes of the HCP. An applicant may
choose to cover non-listed species in the
HCP, and these species will be treated
as ESA-listed species.
On August 31, 2018, we published a
Federal Register notice announcing the
availability for public review of a draft
EIS and requested public comment on
our evaluation of the potential impacts
associated with issuance of an ITP for
implementation of the HCP and to
evaluate alternatives (83 FR 44652). In
September and October 2018, we held
two public hearings on the draft
document, one in Ankeny, Iowa, and
one via online web conference. The
public comment period closed on
October 15, 2018. We received 93
comments in total: 87 through
regulations.gov, 5 comments via email,
2 comments during the in-person public
hearing, and 1 through the U.S. mail.
The final EIS provides responses to
those comments in Appendix E.
Decision
We intend to issue a final ROD with
respect to whether we issue an ITP
allowing the applicants to implement
the Iowa Wind Energy Project Portfolio
Habitat Conservation Plan. Our decision
will be based on a thorough review of
the alternatives and their environmental
consequences. A decision to issue an
PO 00000

ITP would be based on the commitment
by MidAmerican Energy Company to
fully implement the HCP, including
minimization and mitigation measures,
monitoring and adaptive management,
and to fully comply with all terms and
conditions in the ITP.
A final ITP decision will be made no
sooner than 30 days after the
publication of this notice of availability
and completion of the record of
decision.
EPA’s Role in the EIS Process
In addition to this notice, EPA is
publishing a notice in the Federal
Register announcing final EIS for
MidAmerican Energy Company’s Iowa
Wind Energy Project Portfolio Habitat
Conservation Plan, as required under
the Clean Air Act, section 309. The EPA
is charged with reviewing all Federal
agencies’ EISs and commenting on the
adequacy and acceptability of the
environmental impacts of proposed
actions in EISs.
The EPA also serves as the repository
(EIS database) for EISs that Federal
agencies prepare. All EISs must be filed
with EPA, which publishes a notice of
availability on Fridays in the Federal
Register. For more information, see
https://www.epa.gov/nepa. You may
search for EPA comments on EISs, along
with EISs themselves, at https://
cdxnodengn.epa.gov/cdx-enepa-public/
action/eis/search.
Authority
We provide this notice under section
10(c) of the ESA (16 U.S.C.1539(c)) and
its implementing regulations (50 CFR
17.22) and the NEPA (42 U.S.C. 4321 et
seq.) and its implementing regulations
(40 CFR 1506.6; 43 CFR part 46).
