We, NMFS, announce a 12-month finding on a petition to delineate Northern California (NC) summer-run steelhead as a distinct population segment (DPS) of West Coast steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss), and to list that DPS as endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA).

We also announce the availability of the DPS configuration review report prepared pursuant to the ESA for the NC steelhead DPS.
