Notice of Additional Public

Involvement Opportunities/Re-opening

of Comment Period for the Preparation

of an Environmental Impact Statement

to Allow Incidental Take of Multiple

Species by Nonindustrial Private

Landowners in Lewis County, WA

AGENCIES: Fish and Wildlife Servce,

Interior; National Marine Fisheries

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),

Commerce.

ACTION: Notice to re-open public

comment period.

SUMMARY: This notice advises other

agencies and the public that the Fish

and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and

National Marine Fisheries Service

(NMFS) (collectively, the Services) are

re-opening the initial 30-day public

comment period and will hold three

additional scoping workshops to assist

in gathering information for the

preparation of an Environmental Impact

Statement (EIS). This EIS pertains to the

proposed issuance of Incidental Take

Permits by NMFS and USFWS, and

Enhancement of Survival Permits by

USFWS (collectively, Permits) to

nonindustrial forest landowners for

forest-management activities conducted

in Lewis County, WA. The proposed

Permits would authorize take of

federally listed species in accordance

with the Endangered Species Act of

1973, as amended (Act), and certain

other unlisted species should they be

listed in the future. As required by the

Act, a Conservation Plan is being

prepared in voluntary cooperation with

interested Lewis County parties. Since

the Permits are likely to involve

multiple landowners, the Conservation

Plan will be developed as a

programmatic Plan, titled the Family

Forest Conservation Project (Plan). The

USFWS will also use additional

landowner agreements available under

Section 10 of the Act, such as

Enhancement of Survival Permits for

Safe Harbor Agreements and Candidate

Conservation Agreements with

Assurances, as appropriate. This notice

supplements the notice of intent

published in the September 23, 1999,

Federal Register.
