Fish and Wildlife Service November 25, 2024 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), are extending the comment period on our September 24, 2024, proposed rule to revise critical habitat for Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris) and to designate critical habitat for Antillean manatee (T. m. manatus) under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (Act), as amended. We are extending the proposed rule's comment period for 60 days to give all interested parties an additional opportunity to comment on the proposed rule. Comments previously submitted need not be resubmitted as they are already incorporated into the public record and will be fully considered in the final rule.
