SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The Act (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) 

prohibits activities with endangered and 

threatened species unless a Federal 

permit allows such activity. Along with 

our implementing regulations in the 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at 50 

CFR 17, the Act provides for permits, 

and requires that we invite public 

comment before issuing these permits. 

A permit granted by us under section 

10(a)(1)(A) of the Act authorizes 

applicants to conduct activities with 

U.S. endangered or threatened species 

for scientific purposes, enhancement of 

propagation or survival, or interstate 

commerce (the latter only in the event 

that it facilitates scientific purposes or 

enhancement of propagation or 

survival). 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.

agencies, and the public to comment on

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) 

In compliance with NEPA (42 U.S.C.

determination that the proposed 

activities in these permits are 

categorically excluded from the 

requirement to prepare an
