Endangered and Threatened Wildlife
and Plants; Initiation of 5-Year Status
Reviews of Five Listed Species in the
Mountain-Prairie Region
Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice of initiation of reviews;
request for information.
AGENCY:
We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, are initiating 5-year
status reviews of five species under the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended. A 5-year status review is
based on the best scientific and
commercial data available at the time of
the review; therefore, we are requesting
submission of any new information on
these species that has become available
since the last review of the species.
DATES: To ensure consideration in our
reviews, we are requesting submission
of new information no later than
October 4, 2022. However, we will
continue to accept new information
about any listed species at any time.
ADDRESSES: For instructions on how to
submit information for each species, see
the table in the SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION section.
SUMMARY:
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
To
request information, contact the
appropriate person in the table in the
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section, or
for general information, contact Craig
Hansen, Regional Recovery Coordinator,
by phone at 303–236–4748 or by email
at craig_hansen@fws.gov. Individuals in
the United States who are deaf,
deafblind, hard of hearing, or have a
speech disability may dial 711 (TTY,
TDD, or TeleBraille) to access
telecommunications relay services.
Individuals outside the United States
should use the relay services offered
within their country to make
international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We are
initiating 5-year status reviews under
the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (Act; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)
for one plant and four animals in the
Mountain-Prairie Region. A 5-year
status review is based on the best
scientific and commercial data available
at the time of the review; therefore, we
are requesting submission of any such
information that has become available
since the last review for the species.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Why do we conduct 5-year status
reviews?
Under the Act (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.),
we maintain Lists of Endangered and
Threatened Wildlife and Plants (which
we collectively refer to as the List) in
the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at
50 CFR 17.11 (for animals) and 17.12
(for plants). Section 4(c)(2)(A) of the Act
requires us to review each listed
species’ status at least once every 5
years. Our regulations at 50 CFR 424.21
require that we publish a notice in the
Federal Register announcing those
species under active review. For

status reviews, go to https://
www.fws.gov/endangered/what-we-do/
recovery-overview.html, scroll down to
‘‘Learn More about 5-Year Status
Reviews,’’ and click on our factsheet.
What information do we consider in
our review?
A 5-year status review considers all
new information available at the time of
the review. In conducting these reviews,
we consider the best scientific and
commercial data that have become
available since the listing determination
or most recent status review, such as:
(A) Species biology, including but not
limited to population trends,
distribution, abundance, demographics,
and genetics;
(B) Habitat conditions, including but
not limited to amount, distribution, and
suitability;
(C) Conservation measures that have
been implemented that benefit the
species;
(D) Threat status and trends in
relation to the five listing factors (as
defined in section 4(a)(1) of the Act);
and
(E) Other new information, data, or
corrections, including but not limited to
taxonomic or nomenclatural changes,
identification of erroneous information
contained in the List, and improved
analytical methods.
Any new information will be
considered during the 5-year status
review and will also be useful in
evaluating the ongoing recovery
programs for the species.
