Applicants’ Proposed Project 

We received an application from the 

co-applicants for an incidental take 

permit, along with a proposed habitat 

conservation plan. The co-applicants 

request a transfer and 15-year renewal of 

an ITP under section 10(a)(1)(B) of the 

Act (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). If we 

approve the application, the coapplicants anticipate taking a total of 

approximately 18.59 acres of skink 

breeding, feeding, and sheltering 

habitat, incidental to land preparation 

and construction in Sections 9, 10, and 

15, Township 26 South, Range 23 East, 

Polk County, Florida. The co-applicants 

currently have a specific site plan that 

includes the construction of one or more 

residences, buildings, roads, green 

areas, structures, and parking areas, and 

installation of associated utilities. The 

co-applicants propose to transfer and 

renew this project without changes, and 

have complied with all the mitigation 

requirements set forth in the initial 

review and permitting of the project. 

The co-applicants propose to 

minimize impacts to skinks by 

preserving a total of 71.14 acres of 

suitable skink habitat on site. The 

preservation parcel has been put under 

a conservation easement granted to Polk 

County and will be managed in 

perpetuity. The Service listed the sand 

skink and the blue-tailed mole skink as 

threatened in 1987 (November 6, 1987; 

52 FR 42658, effective December 7, 

1987). 

Our Preliminary Determination 

The Service has made a preliminary 

determination that the co-applicants’ 

project, including the mitigation 

measures, will individually and 

cumulatively have a minor or negligible 

effect on the species covered in the 

HCP. Therefore, issuance of the ITP is 

a ‘‘low-effect’’ action and qualifies as a 

categorical exclusion under the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (40 

CFR 1506.6), as provided by the 

Department of the Interior Manual (516 

DM 2 Appendix 1 and 516 DM 6 

Appendix 1). We base our preliminary 

determination that issuance of the ITP 

qualifies as a low-effect action on the 

following three criteria: (1) 

Implementation of the project would 

result in minor or negligible effects on 

federally listed, proposed, and 

candidate species and their habitats; (2) 

Implementation of the project would 

result in minor or negligible effects on 

other environmental values or 

resources; and (3) Impacts of the project, 

considered together with the impacts of 

other past, present, and reasonably 

foreseeable similarly situated projects, 

would not result, over time, in 

cumulative effects to environmental 

values or resources that would be 

considered significant. This preliminary 

determination may be revised based on 

our review of public comments that we 

receive in response to this notice. 

Next Steps 

The Service will evaluate the HCP 

and comments submitted thereon to 

determine whether the application 

meets the requirements of section 10(a) 

of the Act. The Service will also 

evaluate whether issuance of the section 

10(a)(1)(B) ITP complies with section 7 

of the Act by conducting an intraService section 7 consultation. The 

results of this consultation, in 

combination with the above findings, 

will be used in the final analysis to 

determine whether or not to transfer and 

renew the ITP. If it is determined that 

the requirements of the Act are met, the 

ITP will be transferred and renewed. 

Authority: We provide this notice under 

Section 10 of the Endangered Species Act (16 

U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) and NEPA regulations 

(40 CFR 1506.6).
