SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), have received an application from the St. Charles Town Company for a 10-year incidental take permit (permit) under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). The application addresses the potential for take of the federally threatened Preble’s meadow jumping mouse (Zapus hudsonius preblei; PMJM) that is likely to occur incidental to proposed construction of commercial and industrial building space. The documents available for review and comment are the applicant’s habitat conservation plan (HCP), which is part of the permit application, and our draft environmental action statement and low-effect screening form. These documents helped inform our VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:56 Dec 20, 2022 Jkt 259001 conclusion that the activities proposed in the HCP will have a low effect on the species and the human environment. Accordingly, our issuance of a permit qualifies for a categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.). 78125 4321 et seq.) and its implementing regulations (40 CFR 1506.6). Drue DeBerry, Acting Assistant Regional Director, Ecological Services, Mountain-Prairie Region, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. [FR Doc. 2022–27695 Filed 12–20–22; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4333–15–P Applicant’s Habitat Conservation Plan The St. Charles Town Company has submitted a low-effect HCP in support of an application for a permit to address take of the species that is likely to occur as the result of proposed construction of commercial and industrial building space (covered activities) on approximately 16.8 acres (ac) in Douglas County, Colorado. The covered activities are anticipated to affect 3.53 ac of PMJM habitat. The requested permit duration is for 10 years. The biological goals and objectives are to minimize and avoid impacts to PMJM habitat, avoid reduction of PMJM survival and recovery, and restore and enhance PMJM habitat postconstruction. The proposed mitigation and minimization measures include protection of 5.15 acres of high-quality upland and riparian PMJM habitat. Impacts will be minimized by restricting human access to PMJM habitat, limiting the establishment and spread of noxious weeds, and restoration of areas temporarily impacted by construction.
