Endangered and Threatened Species; 90-Day Finding on Two Petitions To List Porbeagle Sharks
Document Number: 2015-07073
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2015-03-27
Agency: Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
We, NMFS, are accepting two 2010 petitions to list porbeagle sharks (Lamna nasus) on the Federal List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973, as amended. This action is being taken in response to a December 12, 2014, U.S. District Court decision that our previous rejection of the petitions in 2010 was arbitrary and capricious. To ensure a comprehensive review, we are soliciting scientific and commercial data and other information relevant to the status of porbeagle sharks worldwide. We will publish the results of that review and will make a finding as to whether the petitioned action is or is not warranted on or before December 12, 2015.
