SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the 

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, invite 

review and comment from the public 

and local, State, Tribal, and Federal 

agencies on applications we have 

received for permits to conduct certain 

activities with endangered and 

threatened species under section 

10(a)(1)(A) of the Endangered Species 

Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16 

U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), and our regulations 

in the Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR) at 50 CFR part 17. Documents and 

other information submitted with the 

applications are available for review, 

subject to the requirements of the 

Privacy Act and the Freedom of 

Information Act. 

Background 

The ESA prohibits certain activities 

with endangered and threatened species 

unless authorized by a Federal permit. 

The ESA and our implementing 

regulations in part 17 of title 50 of the 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 

provide for the issuance of such permits 

and require that we invite public 

comment before issuing permits for 

activities involving endangered species. 

A recovery permit issued by us under 

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

authorizes the permittee to conduct 

activities with endangered 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 

The ESA requires that we invite 

public comment before issuing these 

permits. Accordingly, we invite local, 

State, Tribal, and Federal agencies and 

the public to submit written data, views, 

or arguments with respect to these 

applications. The comments and 

recommendations that will be most 

useful and likely to influence agency 

decisions are those supported by 

quantitative information or studies. 

Proposed activities in the following 

permit requests are for the recovery and 

enhancement of propagation or survival 

of the species in the wild.
