Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 164 / Friday, August 27, 2021 / Notices
Endangered Species Act (ESA) Listed
Species Covered in This Notice
• Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus
tshawytscha): Threatened, naturally and
artificially propagated;
• Steelhead (O. mykiss): Threatened,
naturally and artificially propagated;
Background
The term ‘‘take’’ is defined under the
ESA to mean harass, harm, pursue,
hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture,
or collect, or to attempt to engage in any
such conduct. The ESA prohibits the
take of endangered salmonids and,
pursuant to ESA section 4(d), ESA
regulations can be extended to prohibit
the take of threatened salmonids.
However, NMFS may make exceptions
to the take prohibitions for hatchery
programs that are approved by NMFS
under the limits on the prohibitions
outlined in 50 CFR 223.203(b). The
Muckleshoot Indian Tribe and WDFW
have submitted hatchery plans to NMFS
pursuant to the ESA 4(d) rule for salmon
and steelhead. The hatchery programs
are intended to contribute to the
survival and recovery of Puget Sound
Chinook Salmon, provide information
on exploitation rates, and support
returns of coho salmon, Chinook
salmon, and sockeye salmon to the Lake
Washington basin.
