AGENCY:
We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (Service), have received
an application from Cardinal Point
Wind Farm, LLC for an incidental take
permit under the Endangered Species
Act, for its Cardinal Point Wind Project
(project). If approved, the permit would
authorize the incidental take of two
endangered species, the Indiana bat and
the northern long-eared bat, and two
species under federal review, the
tricolored bat and little brown bat. The
applicant has prepared a habitat
conservation plan in support of their
application. We also announce the
availability of a draft environmental
assessment, which has been prepared in
response to the permit application in
accordance with the requirements of the
National Environmental Policy Act. We
invite comments from the public and
Federal, Tribal, State, and local
governments.
DATES: We will accept comments on or
before July 27, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Section 9 of the Endangered Species
Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531
et seq.), and its implementing
regulations prohibit the ‘‘take’’ of
animal species listed as endangered or
threatened. ‘‘Take’’ is defined under the
ESA as to ‘‘harass, harm, pursue, hunt,
shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or
collect [listed animal species], or to
attempt to engage in such conduct’’ (16
U.S.C. 1538). However, under section
10(a) of the ESA, we may issue permits
to authorize incidental take of listed
species. ‘‘Incidental take’’ is defined by
the ESA as take that is incidental to, and
not the purpose of, carrying out an
otherwise lawful activity. Regulations
governing incidental take permits (ITP)
for endangered and threatened species,
respectively, are found in the Code of
Federal Regulations at 50 CFR 17.22 and
50 CFR 17.32.

The applicant requests a 6-year ITP
for take of four bat species, including
the federally protected Indiana bat
(Myotis sodalis) and northern long-eared
bat (Myotis septentrionalis), the
tricolored bat (Perimyotis subflavus),
which is proposed for listing, and the
little brown bat (Myotis lucifugus),
which is being considered for listing.
These species are hereafter referred to as
‘‘covered species.’’ The applicant
determined that wind farm activities on
this land are reasonably certain to result
in incidental take of these species. The
activity that could result in incidental
take of the covered species is the
operation of 60 wind turbines occurring
in McDonough and Warrant Counties,
Illinois, on private land. The estimated
level of take from the project is up to
240 Indiana bats, 6 northern long-eared
bats, 18 tricolored bats, and 18 little
brown bats over the 6-year project
duration.
The proposed conservation strategy in
the applicant’s proposed HCP is
designed to avoid, minimize, and
mitigate the impacts of the covered
activity on the covered species. The
biological goals and objectives are to
minimize potential take of the covered
species through on-site minimization
measures and to provide habitat
conservation measures to offset any
impacts from operations of the project.
On-site minimization measures include
feathering turbine blades under specific
conditions that are associated with high
bat use of the project area, as measured
with acoustic bat detectors at the
project. To offset the impacts of the
taking of the covered species, the
applicant proposes to conserve bat
habitat by purchasing credits from a bat
conservation bank in Illinois or through
individually sponsored habitat projects.
The Service requests public comments
on the permit application, which
includes a proposed HCP, and an EA
prepared in accordance with the
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.).
The applicant’s HCP describes the
activities that will be undertaken to
implement the project, as well as the
mitigation and minimization measures
proposed to address the impacts to the
covered species. Pursuant to NEPA, the
EA analyzes the impacts the ITP
issuance would have on the covered
species and the environment.
National Environmental Policy Act
Issuance of an ITP is a Federal action
that triggers the need for compliance
with NEPA. We prepared a draft EA that
analyzes the environmental impacts on
