Endangered Species; Receipt of 

Recovery Permit Applications 

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of receipt of permit 

applications; request for comments. 

SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and 

Wildlife Service, have received 

applications for permits to conduct 

scientific research to promote 

conservation or other activities intended 

to enhance the propagation or survival 

of endangered or threatened species 

under the Endangered Species Act. We 

invite the public and local, State, Tribal, 

and Federal agencies to comment on 

these applications. Before issuing the 

requested permits, we will take into 

consideration any information that we 

receive during the public comment 

period. 

DATES: We must receive any written 

comments on or before November 4, 

2024. 

ADDRESSES: Use one of the following 

methods to request documents or 

submit comments. Requests and 

comments should specify the 

applicant’s name and application 

number (e.g., PER0001234): 

• Email: permitsR5ES@fws.gov. 

• U.S. Mail: Abby Goldstein,

Wildlife Service, 300 Westgate Center

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Abby Goldstein, 413–253–8212 (phone), 

or permitsR5ES@fws.gov (email). 

Individuals in the United States who are 

deaf, deafblind, hard of hearing, or have 

a speech disability may dial 711 (TTY, 

TDD, or TeleBraille) to access 

telecommunications relay services. 

Individuals outside the United States 

should use the relay services offered 

within their country to make 

international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the 

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, invite 

the public to comment on applications 

for permits under section 10(a)(1)(A) of 

the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as 

amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). 

The requested permits would allow the 

applicants to conduct activities 

intended to promote recovery of species 

that are listed as endangered under the 

ESA. 

Background 

With some exceptions, the ESA 

prohibits activities that constitute take 

of listed species, unless a Federal permit 

is issued that allows such activity. The 

ESA’s definition of ‘‘take’’ includes such 

activities as pursuing, harassing, 

trapping, capturing, or collecting, in 

addition to hunting, shooting, harming, 

wounding, or killing. 

A recovery permit issued by us under 

section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA 

authorizes the permittee to conduct 

activities with endangered or threatened 

species for scientific purposes that 

promote recovery or for enhancement of 

propagation or survival of the species. 

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. 

Permit Applications Available for 

Review and Comment 

We invite local, State, and Federal 

agencies; Tribes; and the public to 

comment on the applications in table 1.
