Comal County Regional Habitat 

Conservation Plan, Comal County, TX 

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of availability: draft 

environmental impact statement, draft 

habitat conservation plan, and permit 

application; announcement of a public 

hearing. 

SUMMARY: Comal County, Texas 

(Applicant), has applied to the U.S. Fish 

and Wildlife Service (Service) for an 

incidental take permit (TE–223267–0) 

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

Endangered Species Act (Act) of 1973, 

as amended. The requested permit, 

which would be in effect for a period of 

30 years, if granted, would authorize 

incidental take of the following 

federally listed species: Golden-cheeked 

warbler (Dendroica chrysoparia) and 

black-capped vireo (Vireo atricapilla). 

The proposed take would occur in 

Comal County, Texas, as a result of 

activities including, but not limited to: 

Public or private construction and 

development, utility installation and 

maintenance, and public infrastructure 

projects. Comal County has completed a 

draft Habitat Conservation Plan (dHCP) 

as part of the application package. We 

have issued a draft Environmental 

Impact Statement (dEIS) that evaluates 

the impacts of, and alternatives to, 

possible issuance of an incidental take 

permit (ITP). 

DATES: Comment-period end: To ensure 

consideration, we must receive written 

comments by close of business (4:30 

p.m. CDT) on or before September 1, 

2010. 

Public meetings: We will accept oral 

and written comments at a public 

hearing to be held on July 27, 6 p.m. to 

8 p.m., Comal County Commissioners 

Court, 199 Main Plaza, New Braunfels, 

Texas 78130. 

ADDRESSES: For where to review 

documents and submit comments, and 

the public meeting location, see 

Reviewing Documents and Submitting 

Comments in SUPPLEMENTARY

INFORMATION. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Adam Zerrenner, Field Supervisor, U.S. 

Fish and Wildlife Service, 10711 Burnet 

Road, Suite 200, Austin, TX 78758 or 

512–490–0057. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4371 et seq.), this 

notice advises the public that we have 

gathered the information necessary to 

determine impacts and formulate 

alternatives for the EIS related to the 

potential issuance of an ITP to Comal 

County; and that the Applicant has 

developed an HCP which describes the 

measures the applicant has agreed to 

undertake to minimize and mitigate the 

effects of incidental take of federally 

listed species to the maximum extent 

practicable, under section 10(a)(1)(B) of 

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

Background 

Our initial notice of intent to prepare 

an EIS and hold public scoping 

meetings published in the Federal 

Register on October 16, 2008 (73 FR 

61433). A public scoping meeting was 

held on December 4, 2008, at 

Commissioners Court in New Braunfels, 

Texas. The dHCP and the conservation 

programs described in the plan were 

developed in a process involving 

participants and stakeholders from 

potentially affected or interested groups 

in Comal County. The groups are 

organized into a Citizens Advisory 

Committee and a Biological Advisory 

Team that have overseen the 

development of the dHCP. The Comal 

County Web site contains information 

on meetings, documents, and the status 

of the process. 

Section 9 of the Act and its 

implementing regulations prohibit the 

‘‘taking’’ of threatened and endangered 

species. However, under limited 

circumstances, we may issue permits to 

take listed wildlife species incidental to, 

and not the purpose of, otherwise lawful 

activities. 

Proposed Action 

The proposed action involves the 

issuance of an ITP by the Service for 

covered activities in Comal County, 

under section 10(a)(1)(B) of the Act. The 

activities that would be covered by the 

ITP are public or private construction 

and development, utility installation 

and maintenance (including, but not 

limited to, power and cable stations, 

substations, and transmission lines; 

water, sewer, and natural gas pipelines; 

and plants and other facilities), and 

public infrastructure projects such as 

school development, road construction 

and maintenance, and parkland. The 

ITP will cover Comal County, Texas. 

The requested term of the permit is 30 

years. To meet the issuance criteria for 

an ITP, the Applicant has developed 

and will implement the dHCP, which 

describes the conservation measures the 

Applicant has agreed to undertake to 

minimize the potential for and mitigate 

the potential effects of incidental take of 

golden-cheeked warbler and blackcapped vireo to the maximum extent 

practicable. 

Alternatives 

The alternatives to the proposed 

action we are considering as part of this 

process are: 

1. No Action—A countywide HCP 

would not be implemented, and no ITP 

would be issued. This alternative would 

require individuals to seek 

authorization through section 7 

consultation or individual section 10 

permits to address incidental take 

resulting from their actions in Comal 

County or avoid taking actions that 

would result in incidental take. 

2. Modified (Reduced Take and 

Mitigation) HCP—This alternative 

would only cover take of the goldencheeked warbler, and the amount of 

authorized take and mitigation would be 

reduced for this species. 

3. Preferred Alternative (Proposed 

Comal County RHCP)—This alternative 

would involve issuance of a 10(a)(1)(B) 

permit covering impacts to 5,238 acres 

of golden-cheeked warbler habitat and 

1,000 acres of black-capped vireo 

habitat.
