SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 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. Documents and
other information submitted with the
applications are available for review,
subject to the requirements of the
Privacy Act and the Freedom of
Information Act.
Background
The ESA prohibits certain activities
with endangered and threatened species
unless authorized by a Federal permit.
The ESA and our implementing
regulations in part 17 of title 50 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)
provide for the issuance of such permits
and require that we invite public
comment before issuing permits for
activities involving endangered species.
A recovery permit issued by us under
section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA
authorizes the permittee to conduct
activities with endangered species for
scientific purposes that promote
recovery or for enhancement of
propagation or survival of the species.
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.
Permit Applications Available for
Review and Comment
The ESA requires that we invite
public comment before issuing these
permits. Accordingly, we invite local,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We have
received an application from the County

Sfmt 4703
of San Diego (applicant) for an
incidental take permit under the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).
The application addresses the potential
take of the Quino checkerspot butterfly
(Euphydryas editha quino), federally
listed as endangered, and the western
spadefoot (Spea hammondii), an
amphibian species federally proposed as
threatened, incidental to otherwise
lawful activities at the Alpine Park
(project) site, as described in the
applicant’s draft habitat conservation
plan (conservation plan). The proposed
project would be located in the
community of Alpine in San Diego
County, California.
Background
Section 9 of the ESA (16 U.S.C. 1538)
and Federal regulations promulgated
pursuant to section 4(d) of the ESA (16
U.S.C. 1533) prohibit the take of
endangered and threatened animals
without special exemption. Under
section 10(a)(1)(B) of the ESA (16 U.S.C.
1539), we may issue permits to
authorize take of listed fish and wildlife
species that is incidental to, and not the
purpose of, carrying out an otherwise
lawful activity. Regulations governing
permits for endangered and threatened
species are set forth in title 50 of the
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at
part 17, sections 17.22 and 17.32.
The National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.)
requires Federal agencies to analyze
their proposed actions to determine
whether the actions may significantly
affect the human environment. In the
NEPA analysis, the Federal agency will
identify the effects, as well as possible
mitigation for effects on environmental
resources, that could occur with the
implementation of the proposed action
and alternatives. The Federal action in
this case is the Service’s proposed
issuance of an incidental take permit for
the federally endangered Quino
checkerspot butterfly and the federally
proposed threatened western spadefoot.
Permit Application
The applicant has submitted a draft
conservation plan that describes the
activities that would be covered by the
permit, including construction of the
active recreation park and impacts
associated with habitat maintenance
and restoration. To minimize the risk of
incidental take, the applicant would
employ seasonal restrictions and
preconstruction surveys and potential
translocation. To mitigate the impact of
the incidental take, the applicant
proposes to protect and manage the
67.5-acre Alpine Park Preserve, enhance

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,
invite review and comment from the public and local, State, Tribal, and

conduct certain activities with endangered and threatened species under
section 10(a)(1)(A) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended

Federal Regulations (CFR) at 50 CFR part 17. Documents and other
information submitted with the applications are available for review,
subject to the requirements of the Privacy Act and the Freedom of

Background
The ESA prohibits certain activities with endangered and threatened
species unless authorized by a Federal permit. The ESA and our
implementing regulations in part 17 of title 50 of the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) provide for the issuance of such permits and require
that we invite public comment before issuing permits for activities
involving endangered species.
A recovery permit issued by us under section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA
authorizes the permittee to conduct activities with endangered species
for scientific purposes that promote recovery or for enhancement of
propagation or survival of the species. 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.
Permit Applications Available for Review and Comment
The ESA requires that we invite public comment before issuing these
permits. Accordingly, we invite local,
[[Page 7151]]
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

requests are for the recovery and enhancement of propagation or
survival of the species in the wild.
