The ultimate recovery goal is to delist
the Diamond Y invertebrates by
ensuring the long-term viability of these
species in the wild. In the recovery
plan, we define the following criteria for
delisting (i.e., removal of the species
from the List of Endangered and
Threatened Wildlife):
• Criterion 1: Maintain the presence
of each species in the occupied
management unit as of the start of this
plan, with a stable or increasing average
trend in density over a period of 20
consecutive years.
• Criterion 2: Develop, implement,
and fulfill a water management plan or
equivalent conservation agreement,
supported by the local irrigation district
and other partners, that ensures
adequate surface and groundwater
levels to (a) sustain delisting criteria
measured by Criterion 1, above, and (b)
ensure that the flows in the Diamond Y
Spring system are stable and perennial.
• Criterion 3: Commitments (e.g.,
conservation agreements) are in place to
maintain sufficient water quality
protections and will be implemented in
perpetuity. These commitments should
specifically address the Diamond Y
invertebrates and reduce the risk of a
catastrophic spill occurring within a
drainage or recharge area occupied by
any of the three invertebrate species.
Request for Public Comments
Section 4(f) of the ESA requires us to
provide public notice and an
opportunity for public review and
comment during recovery plan
development. It is also our policy to
request peer review of recovery plans
(59 FR 34270; July 1, 1994). In an
appendix to the approved final recovery
plan, we will summarize and respond to
the issues raised during public comment
and peer review. Substantive comments
may or may not result in changes to the
recovery plan. Comments regarding
recovery plan implementation will be
forwarded as appropriate to Federal or
other entities so that they can be taken
into account during the course of
implementation of recovery actions.
We invite written comments on this
draft recovery plan. In particular, we are
interested in additional information
regarding the current threats to the
species, ongoing beneficial management
efforts, and the costs associated with
implementing the recommended
recovery actions. The species status
assessment is available as a supporting
document for the draft recovery plan,
but we are not seeking comments on the
status assessment. We will consider all
comments we receive by the date
specified in DATES, above, prior to final
approval of the plan.

ACTION: Notice of receipt of permit
applications; request for comments.
AGENCY:
We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, have received
applications for permits, permit
renewals, and/or permit amendments to
conduct activities intended to enhance
the propagation or survival of
endangered species under the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended. We invite the public and
local, State, Tribal, and Federal agencies
to comment on these applications.
Before issuing any of the requested
permits, we will take into consideration
any information that we receive during
the public comment period.
DATES: We must receive written data or
comments on the applications by
December 3, 2021.
ADDRESSES: Reviewing Documents:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We invite
review and comment from the public
and local, State, Tribal, and Federal
agencies on applications we have
received for permits to conduct certain
activities with endangered and
threatened species under section
10(a)(1)(A) of the Endangered Species
Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), and our regulations
in the Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) at 50 CFR part 17. With some
exceptions, the ESA prohibits take of
listed species unless a Federal permit is
issued that authorizes such take. The
ESA’s definition of ‘‘take’’ includes
hunting, shooting, harming, wounding,
or killing, and also such activities as
pursuing, harassing, trapping, capturing,
or collecting.
A recovery permit issued by us under
section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA
authorizes the permittee to take
endangered or threatened species while
engaging in activities that are conducted
for scientific purposes that promote
recovery of species or for enhancement
of propagation or survival of species.
These activities often include the
capture and collection of species, which
would result in prohibited take were a
permit not issued. Our regulations
implementing section 10(a)(1)(A) for
these permits are found 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.

I. Background
The DOI Office of Human Capital is
establishing a new Department-wide
system of records, INTERIOR/DOI–93,
Reasonable Accommodation Request
Records. This system helps DOI manage
records related to the processing of
requests from employees and applicants
for employment who are seeking a
reasonable accommodation based on
religious belief, disability, or other
condition as required by Federal laws,
regulations, and policies to ensure these
individuals are provided an
accommodation to the greatest extent
possible as provided for in Federal law.
During a review of processes
established for reasonable
accommodation requests related to the
Federal government’s response to the
COVID–19 disease, the Department
identified a need for a focused SORN
under the Privacy Act for records
related to requests for reasonable
accommodation. These records have
been previously maintained under
government-wide SORNs published by
the Office of Personnel Management
(OPM), however, it was determined to
be appropriate for each agency to
establish and maintain its own system
of records for employee requests for
reasonable accommodation. This notice
covers all records and information
related to requests for reasonable
accommodation under Title VII of the
Civil Rights Act of 1964 or the
applicable provisions of the Americans
with Disabilities Act as applied to the
Federal Government through the
Rehabilitation Act that are submitted by,
or on behalf of, Federal employees and
applicants for employment, and the
agency decisions and actions taken on
those requests.
Under Section 501 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (the
Rehabilitation Act), as amended, DOI
must provide reasonable
accommodation upon request from a
qualified employee with a disability that
would enable the employee to perform
the essential functions of the employee’s
position unless no accommodation can

be provided that does not impose an
undue hardship on the Department. A
reasonable accommodation is an
adjustment or alteration that enables a
qualified person with a disability to
apply for a job, perform job duties, or
enjoy benefits and privileges of
employment. A ‘‘disability’’ means a
physical or mental impairment that
substantially limits one or more major
life activities. An impairment that is
episodic may constitute a disability if it
substantially limits one or more major
life activities when active. A qualified
employee is an employee who satisfies
the requisite skills, experience,
education, and other job-related
requirements as defined by applicable
law. In other words, an employee is
qualified if the employee can perform
the essential functions of the employee’s
position with or without a reasonable
accommodation.
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of
1964 requires agencies to reasonably
accommodate the sincerely held
religious beliefs, observances, and
practices of an employee unless doing
so would impose an undue hardship to
the agency. An accommodation for a
sincerely held religious belief is any
adjustment to the work environment
that will resolve, or reduce to a
reasonable level, the conflict between an
employee’s sincerely held religious
belief, observance, or practice and an
employment requirement.
II. Privacy Act
The Privacy Act of 1974, as amended,
embodies fair information practice
principles in a statutory framework
governing the means by which Federal
agencies collect, maintain, use, and
disseminate individuals’ records. The
Privacy Act applies to records about
individuals that are maintained in a
‘‘system of records.’’ A ‘‘system of
records’’ is a group of any records under
the control of an agency from which
information is retrieved by the name of
an individual or by some identifying
number, symbol, or other identifying
particular assigned to the individual.
The Privacy Act defines an individual
as a United States citizen or lawful
permanent resident. Individuals may
request access to their own records that
are maintained in a system of records in
the possession or under the control of
DOI by complying with DOI Privacy Act
regulations at 43 CFR part 2, subpart K,
and following the procedures outlined
in the Records Access, Contesting
Record, and Notification Procedures
sections of this notice.
The Privacy Act requires each agency
to publish in the Federal Register a
description denoting the existence and

Endangered Species; Recovery Permit Applications
AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.
ACTION: Notice of receipt of permit applications; request for comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, have received
applications for permits, permit renewals, and/or permit amendments to
conduct activities intended to enhance the propagation or survival of
endangered species under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended. We invite the public and local, State, Tribal, and Federal
agencies to comment on these applications. Before issuing any of the
requested permits, we will take into consideration any information that
we receive during the public comment period.
DATES: We must receive written data or comments on the applications by
December 3, 2021.
ADDRESSES: Reviewing Documents: Documents and other information
submitted with the applications are available for review, subject to
the requirements of the Privacy Act and Freedom of Information Act.
Submit a request for a copy of such documents to Karen Marlowe (see FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT).
Submitting Comments: If you wish to comment, you may submit
comments by one of the following methods:
U.S. mail: U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Regional Office,
Ecological Services, 1875 Century Boulevard, Atlanta, GA 30345 (Attn:
Karen Marlowe, Permit Coordinator).
Email: [email protected]. Please include your name and
return address in your email message. If you do not receive a
confirmation from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service that we have
received your email message, contact us directly at the telephone
number listed in FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Karen Marlowe, Permit Coordinator,
404-679-7097 (telephone), [email protected] (email), or 404-679-
7081 (fax). Individuals who are hearing or speech impaired may call the
Federal Relay Service at 1-800-877-8339 for TTY assistance.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We invite review and comment from the public
and local, State, Tribal, and Federal agencies on applications we have
received for permits to conduct certain activities with endangered and
threatened species under section 10(a)(1)(A) of the Endangered Species
Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), and our
regulations in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at 50 CFR part 17.
With some exceptions, the ESA prohibits take of listed species unless a
Federal permit is issued that authorizes such take. The ESA's
definition of ``take'' includes hunting, shooting, harming, wounding,
or killing, and also such activities as pursuing, harassing, trapping,
capturing, or collecting.
A recovery permit issued by us under section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA
authorizes the permittee to take endangered or threatened species while
engaging in activities that are conducted for scientific purposes that
promote recovery of species or for enhancement of propagation or
survival of species. These activities often include the capture and
collection of species, which would result in prohibited take were a
permit not issued. Our regulations implementing section 10(a)(1)(A) for
these permits are found 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.
[[Page 60643]]
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.
Before including your address, phone number, email address, or
other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be
aware that your entire comment--including your personal identifying
information--may be made publicly available at any time. While you can
ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be
able to do so.
