Basin 

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: We, the Fish and Wildlife 

Service (Service), give notice that we are 

suspending import of and foreign 

commerce in beluga sturgeon (Huso 

huso) caviar and meat originating in the 

Caspian Sea littoral states of Azerbaijan, 

the Islamic Republic of Iran, 

Kazakhstan, the Russian Federation, and 

Turkmenistan effective immediately. 

This suspension includes shipments 

that have been exported directly from 

these countries, re-exported through an 

intermediary country, or transported as 

personal or household effects, and it 

prohibits foreign commerce in the 

course of a commercial activity. We are 

taking this action under the special rule 

that was promulgated to control the 

trade of threatened beluga sturgeon 

(Huso huso) (70 FR 10493; March 4, 

2005). Interstate commerce in beluga 

sturgeon caviar or meat from the 

Caspian Sea basin that was legally 

imported into the United States before 

the trade suspension is not prohibited. 

DATES: This notice is effective 

September 30, 2005. 

ADDRESSES: Caspian Sea littoral states 

wishing to provide information that may 

allow us to lift this trade suspension 

may submit it by any one of several 

methods: 

1. You may submit written 

information to Robert R. Gabel, Chief,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 

21, 2004, we listed beluga sturgeon as 

threatened (69 FR 21425) under the 

Endangered Species Act of 1973, as 

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

We subsequently published a special 

rule concerning beluga sturgeon (70 FR 

10493; March 4, 2005) under section 

4(d) of the Act. The special rule, located 

at 50 CFR 17.44(y) of our regulations, 

promotes the conservation of the species 

by allowing the import, export or reexport, and interstate and foreign 

commerce of beluga sturgeon caviar and 

meat, without threatened species 

permits otherwise required under 50 

CFR 17.32, from littoral states in the 

Caspian and Black Sea basins that 

demonstrate progress on measures to 

protect and recover the species. The 

special rule requires countries wishing 

to export beluga sturgeon caviar or meat 

to the United States under this 

exemption to provide, by September 6, 

2005, copies of basin-wide cooperative 

management plans for beluga sturgeon 

agreed to by all littoral states in the 

Black Sea or Caspian Sea basin along 

with copies of national laws and 

regulations implementing the 

management plans. 

Import of and foreign commerce in 

Caspian Sea beluga sturgeon 

suspended. We have not received a 

management plan or copies of national
