ACTION: Notice of receipt of permit

Wildlife Service, have received

Act of 1973, as amended. We invite the

the public to comment on applications
for permits under section 10(a)(1)(A) of
the Endangered Species Act, as
amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).
The requested permits would allow the
applicants to conduct activities
intended to promote recovery of species
that are listed as endangered under the
ESA.
Background
With some exceptions, the ESA
prohibits activities that constitute take
of listed species unless a Federal permit
is issued that allows such activity. The
ESA’s definition of ‘‘take’’ includes such
activities as pursuing, harassing,
trapping, capturing, or collecting, in
addition to hunting, shooting, harming,
wounding, or killing.
A recovery permit issued by us under
section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA
authorizes the permittee to conduct
activities with endangered or threatened
species for scientific purposes that
promote recovery or for enhancement of
propagation or survival of the species.
These activities often include such
prohibited actions as capture and
collection. Our regulations
implementing section 10(a)(1)(A) for
these permits are found in the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) at 50 CFR
17.22 for endangered wildlife species,
50 CFR 17.32 for threatened wildlife
species, 50 CFR 17.62 for endangered
plant species, and 50 CFR 17.72 for
threatened plant species.
Permit Applications Available for
Review and Comment
Proposed activities in the following
permit requests are for the recovery and
enhancement of propagation or survival
of the species in the wild. The ESA
requires that we invite public comment
before issuing these permits.
Accordingly, we invite local, State,
Tribal, and Federal agencies and the
public to submit written data, views, or
arguments with respect to these
applications. The comments and
recommendations that will be most
useful and likely to influence agency
decisions are those supported by
quantitative information or studies.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NPS
SRC program is authorized under
section 808 of the Alaska National
Interest Lands Conservation Act (16
U.S.C. 3118). The SRCs hold meetings to
develop NPS subsistence program
recommendations and advise on related
regulatory proposals and resource
management issues.
Each SRC is composed of nine
members: (a) Three members appointed
by the Secretary of the Interior; (b) three
members appointed by the Governor of
the State of Alaska; and (c) three
members appointed by a Regional
Advisory Council (RAC), established
pursuant to 16 U.S.C. 3115, which has
jurisdiction within the area in which the
park is located. Each of the three
members appointed by the RAC must be
a member of either the RAC or a local
advisory committee within the region
who also engages in subsistence uses
within the Park or National Monument.
We are now seeking nominations for
those three members of each of the SRCs
listed above. These members are to be
appointed by the Secretary of the
Interior.

Members will be appointed for a term

serve without compensation. However,
while away from their homes or regular
places of business in the performance of
services for the SRC, and as approved by
the Designated Federal Officer (DFO),
members may be allowed travel
expenses, including per diem in lieu of
subsistence, in the same manner as
persons employed intermittently in
Government service are allowed such
expenses under Section 5703 of Title 5
of the United States Code.
SRC meetings will take place at such
times as designated by the DFO.
Members are expected to make every
effort to attend all meetings. Members
may not appoint deputies or alternates.
We are seeking nominations for
members to represent subsistence users
on each of the seven SRCs listed above.
All those interested in serving as
members, including current members
whose terms are expiring, must follow
the same nomination process.
Nominations should be typed and
should include a resume providing an
adequate description of the nominee’s
qualifications, including information
that would enable the Department of the
Interior to make an informed decision
regarding meeting the membership
requirements of the SRC, and to permit
the Department to contact a potential
member.
