Receipt of Application for Renewal of
an Incidental Take Permit for the Sand
Skink; Lake County, FL; Categorical
Exclusion
Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice of availability; request
for comments.
AGENCY:
We, the Fish and Wildlife
Service (Service), announce receipt of
an application from Sunterra
Communities, LLC (applicant) for
renewal of an incidental take permit
(ITP) under the Endangered Species Act.
If granted, the renewed ITP would
authorize take of the federally listed as
threatened sand skink (Neoseps
reynoldsi) incidental to the construction
of a residential and commercial
development in Lake County, Florida.
The applicant requests the renewal of
the ITP to extend the expiration date for
5 additional years. There is no request
for additional take or increases in
development levels. The proposed
renewal maintains the existing levels of
take and renews the permit through
June 14, 2029. We request public
comment on the application, which
includes the applicant’s original
unchanged habitat conservation plan
(HCP), and the Service’s determination
that the proposed renewal remains
eligible for a categorical exclusion
pursuant to the Council on
Environmental Quality’s National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
regulations, the Department of the
Interior’s (DOI) NEPA regulations, and
the DOI Departmental Manual. To make
this preliminary determination, we used
our existing environmental action
statement and low-effect screening form,
both of which are also available for

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the
Fish and Wildlife Service (Service),
announce receipt of an application from
Sunterra Communities, LLC for renewal
of incidental take permit (ITP) number
TE13200D–0 under the Endangered
Species Act (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et
seq.). The applicant requests the
renewal of the ITP for 5 additional
years. The proposed ITP renewal would
E:\FR\FM\01NON1.SGM
01NON1
87396
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 212 / Friday, November 1, 2024 / Notices
grant the applicant additional time to
complete the residential and
commercial development. The
amendment to renew does not include
any changes in the covered area,
activity, amount or type of take, or
species to be covered by the permit. The
applicant’s existing habitat conservation
plan (HCP) provides measures to
mitigate for the incidental take of the
species.
We request public comment on the
renewal application, which includes the
applicant’s HCP, and on the Service’s
preliminary determination that this
proposed ITP renewal qualifies as low
effect, and qualifies for a categorical
exclusion pursuant to the Council on
Environmental Quality’s National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
regulations (40 CFR 1501.4), the
Department of the Interior’s (DOI) NEPA
regulations (43 CFR 46), and the DOI’s
Departmental Manual (516 DM
8.5(C)(2)). To make this preliminary
determination, we used our
environmental action statement and
low-effect screening form, both of which
are also available for public review.

Proposed Project Renewal
The applicant requests to extend the
ITP expiration date for 5 additional
years and does not propose any other
changes that alter the original review
analyses by the Service. There is no
request for additional take or increases
in development levels; the proposed
time extension maintains the existing
levels of take, and would merely extend
the covered activities out to June 14,
2029, instead of June 14, 2024.
Our Preliminary Determination
The Service has made a preliminary
determination that the applicant’s
proposed permit renewal, extending the
expiration date of the original ITP for 5
additional years, would individually
and cumulatively have a minor effect on
the covered species and the human
environment. Therefore, we have
preliminarily determined that renewal
of the ITP for this project would be a
low-effect ITP that individually or
cumulatively would have a minor effect
on the species and qualifies for
application of a categorical exclusion
pursuant to the Council on
Environmental Quality’s NEPA
regulations, DOI’s NEPA regulations,
and the DOI Departmental Manual. A
low-effect ITP is one that would result
in (1) minor or nonsignificant effects on
species covered in the HCP; (2)
nonsignificant effects on the human
environment; and (3) impacts that,
when added together with the impacts
of other past, present, and reasonable
VerDate Sep<11>2014

foreseeable actions, would not result in
significant cumulative effects to the
human environment.

The Service will evaluate the
application and any comments received
to determine whether to renew the
current permit. We will also conduct an
intra-Service consultation pursuant to
section 7 of the ESA to evaluate the
effects of the proposed take. After
considering the preceding and other
matters, we will determine whether the
permit issuance criteria of section
10(a)(1)(B) of the ESA have been met. If
met, the Service will issue a renewal of
this ITP (TE13200D–0) under number
PER11067884 to Sunterra Communities,
LLC.
