We provide this list to the public as a summary of our permit issuances for candidate conservation agreements with assurances, safe harbor agreements, and habitat conservation plans for calendar year 2018, and for recovery permits issued between July 1, 2017, and December 31, 2018.
Final Environmental Impact Statement and Final Habitat Conservation Plan for the Skookumchuck Wind Energy Project, Lewis and Thurston Counties, Washington; Correction
Document Number: 2019-11788
Type: Notice
Date: 2019-06-06
Agency: Fish and Wildlife Service, Department of the Interior
On May 31, 2019, we, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, announced via a Federal Register notice the availability of a final environmental impact statement (EIS) and a final habitat conservation plan addressing the Skookumchuck Wind Energy Project in Lewis and Thurston Counties, Washington. The Skookumchuck Wind Energy Project LLC is requesting an incidental take permit (ITP) covering the take of one threatened species listed under the Endangered Species Act, and two non-listed federally protected species. The final EIS has been prepared in response to the ITP application in accordance with the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act. Our Federal Register notice inadvertently did not give the correct docket number for the public to use to find the announced documents online. In this notice, we correct that error.
