50 CFR Part 17

RIN 1018–AC33

Endangered and Threatened Wildlife

and Plants; Final Designation of

Critical Habitat for the Marbled

Murrelet

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service,

Interior.

ACTION: Final rule.

SUMMARY: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife

Service originally proposed to designate

critical habitat for the marbled murrelet

(Brachyramphus marmoratus

marmoratus) in Washington, Oregon,

and California on January 27, 1994 (59

FR 3811). Based on comments received

on the original proposal and additional

information, the Service published a

supplemental proposed designation of

critical habitat for the marbled murrelet

on August 10, 1995 (60 FR 40892).

The marbled murrelet is listed as a

threatened species under the

Endangered Species Act (Act). It is a

small seabird of the Alcidae family that

forages in the near-shore marine

environment and nests in large trees in

coniferous forests. Located primarily on

Federal land, and to a lesser extent on

State, county, city, and private lands,

this final critical habitat rule would

provide additional protection

requirements under section 7 of the Act

with regard to activities that are funded,

authorized, or carried out by a Federal

agency. Section 4 of the Act requires the

Service to designate critical habitat for

listed species on the basis of the best

scientific information available and to

consider the economic and other

relevant impacts of including particular

areas in the designation.

EFFECTIVE DATE: June 24, 1996.

ADDRESSES: The complete file for this

rule is available at the U.S. Fish and

Wildlife Service, Oregon State Office,

2600 S.E. 98th Avenue, Suite 100,

Portland, Oregon 97266. The file for this

rule will be available for public

inspection, by appointment, during

normal business hours at the above

address.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

Previous Federal Actions

On January 15, 1988, the U.S. Fish

and Wildlife Service (Service) received

a petition to list the North American

subspecies of the marbled murrelet

(Brachyramphus marmoratus

marmoratus) in Washington, Oregon,

and California as a threatened species

under the Endangered Species Act. On

October 17, 1988, the Service published

a finding that the petition had presented

substantial information to indicate that

the requested action may be warranted

(53 FR 40479). Because of the increased

research effort and new information

available, the status review period was

reopened, with the concurrence of the

petitioners, from March 5, 1990, through

May 31, 1990 (55 FR 4913).

On June 20, 1991, the Service

published a proposal to list the marbled

murrelet in Washington, Oregon, and

California as a threatened species (56 FR

28362). The comment period was

reopened for 30 days on January 30,

1992, to gather the most updated

information about the species (57 FR

3804). On October 1, 1992, following an

order by the U.S. District Court for the

Western District of Washington denying

a 6-month extension, the Service

published the final rule listing the

marbled murrelet in Washington,

Oregon, and California as a threatened

species (57 FR 45328). In February 1993,

the Service appointed a Recovery Team

to develop a recovery plan for the

marbled murrelet.

On November 2, 1993, the U.S.

District Court for the Western District of

Washington granted a motion by the

plaintiffs in Marbled Murrelet v. Babbitt

to compel a proposed designation of

critical habitat. In the ruling, the court

ordered the Secretary of the Interior to

propose designating critical habitat for

the marbled murrelet no later than

January 21, 1994, and to make a final

designation of critical habitat as soon as

reasonably possible under applicable

law.

On January 27, 1994, the Service

published a proposed rule for the

designation of critical habitat for the

marbled murrelet (59 FR 3811). Public

comment was due by April 27, 1994. On

March 14, 1994, the Service received a

request for a public hearing. To allow

additional comment, the public

comment period was reopened for 30

days on May 9, 1994. The public

hearing was conducted on May 24,

1994, in North Bend, Oregon.

Based on comments received from the

Marbled Murrelet Recovery Team, other

commenters, and additional

information, the Service significantly

amended its proposed critical habitat

designation and published a

supplemental proposed rule on August

10, 1995 (60 FR 40892). The Service

held five public hearings on the

supplemental proposed rule in

Washington, Oregon, and California

during the public comment period.

Public comment was accepted through

October 10, 1995.

Based on the Service’s interpretation

of Public Law 104–6 as prohibiting the

expenditure of funds for making a final

determination of critical habitat, the

record was closed and the comments

archived at the end of the public

comment period. On February 29, 1996,

Judge Rothstein denied a motion to

vacate her previous order on completion

of the designation of critical habitat and

ordered the Service to complete the

final designation by May 15, 1996. This

rule complies with that order.

Ecological Considerations

The marbled murrelet is a small

seabird of the Alcidae family. The North

American subspecies ranges from the

Aleutian Archipelago in Alaska,

eastward to Cook Inlet, Kodiak Island,

Kenai Peninsula and Prince William

Sound, south along the coast through

the Alexander Archipelago of Alaska,

British Columbia, Washington, and

Oregon to central California. Some

wintering birds are found in southern

California. A separate subspecies

(Brachyramphus marmoratus perdix)

occurs in Asia. Though recent genetic

analysis indicates that the two

subspecies may warrant full specific

status (Friesen et al. 1994), a status

change has not yet been recognized.

Marbled murrelets spend most of their

lives in the marine environment where

they feed primarily on small fish and

invertebrates in near-shore marine

waters. They forage by pursuit diving in

waters generally up to 80 meters (260

feet) deep and 0.3 to 2 kilometers (0.2

to 1.2 miles) off-shore. Pairs are often

seen diving simultaneously, which

researchers suggest may increase

foraging efficiency (Strachan et al.

1995). Courtship behaviors have been

observed at sea although copulation

rarely has been witnessed. Marbled

murrelets also aggregate, loaf, preen,

and exhibit wing-stretching behaviors

on the water.

Marbled murrelets nest inland in

Washington, Oregon, and California,

typically in large-diameter old-growth

trees in low-elevation forests with

multi-layered canopies (Hamer and

Nelson 1995b). Marbled murrelets have

been found occasionally on rivers and
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations 26257

inland lakes (Carter and Sealy 1986;

Strachan et al. 1995).

Dispersal mechanisms are not well

understood, however, social interactions

may play an important role. The

presence of marbled murrelets in a

forest stand may attract other pairs to

currently unoccupied habitat within the

vicinity. This may be one of the reasons

marbled murrelets have been observed

in habitat not currently suitable for

nesting, but in close proximity to known

nesting sites (Hamer and Cummins

1990, Hamer et al. 1991, Suddjian

1995). Although marbled murrelets

appear to be solitary in their nesting

habits, they are frequently detected in

groups in the forest (Nelson and Peck

1995; USFWS 1995a). Two nests

discovered in Washington during 1990

were located within 46 meters (150 feet)

of each other (Hamer and Cummins

1990), and two nests discovered in

Oregon during 1994 were located within

33 meters (100 feet) of each other (S. K.

Nelson, Oregon Cooperative Wildlife

Research Unit, pers. comm. 1995).

Therefore, unoccupied habitat in the

vicinity of occupied habitat may be

more important for recovering the

species than suitable habitat isolated

from occupied habitat (USFWS 1995a).

Similarly, murrelets are more likely to

discover newly developing habitat in

proximity to occupied sites.

Nesting occurs over an extended

period from late March to late

September (Carter and Sealy 1987;

Hamer and Nelson 1995b). During the

breeding period, the female marbled

murrelet lays a single egg in a tree

containing a suitable nesting platform

(e.g., large or forked limbs, dwarf

mistletoe (Arceuthobium spp.)

infections, witches’ brooms, deformities,

etc. (Hamer and Nelson 1995b). Both

sexes incubate the egg in alternating 24-

hour shifts for approximately 30 days,

and the young fledge after an additional

27 to 40 days (Simons 1980; Hirsch et

al. 1981; Singer et al. 1991; Hamer and

Nelson 1995a; Nelson and Hamer

1995a). Adults feeding young fly from

ocean feeding areas to nest sites at all

times of the day, but most often at dusk

and dawn (Nelson and Hamer 1995a).

Chicks are fed at least once a day. The

adults usually carry only one fish at a

time to the young (Hamer and Cummins

1991; Singer et al. 1992; Nelson and

Hamer 1995a). The young are semiprecocial. Before leaving the nest, the

young molt into a distinctive juvenile

plumage. A fledgling’s first flight is from

the nest directly to the marine

environment (Hamer and Cummins

1991).

Marbled murrelets have been

observed at some inland sites during all

months of the year (Paton et al. 1987;

Naslund 1993). Attendance at breeding

sites during the non-breeding season

may enhance pair bond maintenance,

facilitate earlier breeding, or reinforce

familiarity with flight paths to breeding

sites (Naslund and O’Donnell 1995;

O’Donnell et al. 1995).

With respect to critical habitat, the

Service considered two components of

marbled murrelet habitat that are

biologically essential—(1) terrestrial

nesting habitat and associated forest

stands, and (2) marine foraging habitat

used during the breeding season.

Forested areas with conditions that

support nesting marbled murrelets are

referred to as ‘‘suitable nesting habitat.’’

Marine areas with conditions that

support foraging marbled murrelets are

referred to as ‘‘suitable foraging

habitat.’’ Because only terrestrial habitat

is being designated as critical habitat,

the primary focus of this description

will be on the terrestrial environment.

Throughout the forested portion of the

species’ range, marbled murrelets

typically nest in forested areas

containing characteristics of older

forests (Binford et al. 1975; Hamer and

Cummins 1991; Quinlan and Hughes

1990; Kuletz 1991; Singer et al. 1991,

1992; Hamer et al. 1994; Hamer and

Nelson 1995b; Ralph et al. 1995a). The

marbled murrelet population in

Washington, Oregon, and California

nests in most of the major types of

coniferous forests in the western

portions of these states, wherever older

forests remain inland of the coast.

Although marbled murrelet nesting

habitat characteristics are somewhat

variable throughout the range of the

species, some general habitat attributes

are characteristic throughout its range,

including the presence of nesting

platforms, adequate canopy cover over

the nest, landscape condition, and

distance to the marine environment.

Individual tree attributes that provide

conditions suitable for nesting include

large branches (average of 32

centimeters (13 inches), range of 10 to

81 centimeters (4 to 32 inches) in

Washington, Oregon, and California) or

forked branches, deformities (e.g.,

broken tops), dwarf mistletoe infections,

witches’ brooms, or other structures

large enough to provide a platform for

a nesting adult murrelet (Hamer and

Cummins 1991; Singer et al. 1991, 1992;

Hamer and Nelson 1995b). These

structures are typically found in oldgrowth and mature forests, but may be

found in a variety of forest types

including younger forests containing

remnant large trees.

Northwestern forests and trees

typically require 200 to 250 years to

attain the attributes necessary to support

marbled murrelet nesting, although

characteristics of nesting habitat

sometimes develop in younger coastal

redwood (Sequoia sempervirens) and

western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla)

forests. Forests with older residual trees

remaining from previous forest stands

may also develop into nesting habitat

more quickly than those without

residual trees. These remnant attributes

can be products of fire, wind storms, or

previous logging operations that did not

remove all of the trees (Hansen et al.

1991; McComb et al. 1993). Other

factors that may affect the time required

to develop suitable nesting habitat

characteristics include site productivity

and microclimate.

Through the 1995 nesting season, at

least 95 active or previously used tree

nests had been located in North

America, including 9 in Washington, 41

in Oregon, and 12 in California (S. K.

Nelson, pers. comm. 1996; W. Ritchie,

Washington Dept. of Fish and Wildlife,

pers. comm. 1996; Binford et al. 1975;

Quinlan and Hughes 1990; Hamer and

Cummins 1990, 1991; Kuletz 1991;

Singer et al. 1991, 1992; Hamer and

Nelson 1995b). All of the nests for

which data are available in Washington,

Oregon, and California were in large

trees that were more than 81 centimeters

(32 inches) diameter at breast height

(dbh) (Hamer and Nelson 1995b). Of the

37 nests for which data were available,

70 percent were on a moss substrate and

30 percent were on litter, such as bark

pieces, conifer needles, small twigs, or

duff. Fifty-nine percent of the nests

were on large or deformed branches, 16

percent were on forked limbs, 6 percent

were on a limb where it attached to the

tree bole, 11 percent were on dwarf

mistletoe, and 8 percent were on other

structures (Hamer and Nelson 1995b; T.

Hamer, Hamer Environmental, pers.

comm. 1995).

More than 94 percent of the nests for

which data were available were in the

top half of the nest trees, which may

allow easy nest access and provide

shelter from potential predators and

weather. Canopy cover directly over the

nests was typically high (average 84

percent; range 5 to 100 percent) in

Washington, Oregon, and California

(Hamer and Nelson 1995b; T. Hamer,

pers. comm. 1995). This cover may

provide protection from predators and

weather. Such canopy cover may be

provided by trees adjacent to the nest

tree, and/or by the nest tree itself.

Canopy closure of the nest stand/site

varied between 12 and 99 percent and

averaged 48 percent (Hamer and Nelson

1995b; T. Hamer, pers. comm. 1995).
26258 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

Nests have been located in forested

areas dominated by coastal redwood,

Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii),

mountain hemlock (Tsuga mertensiana),

Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis), western

hemlock, and western redcedar (Thuja

plicata) (Binford et al. 1975; Quinlan

and Hughes 1990; Hamer and Cummins

1991; Singer et al. 1991, 1992; Hamer

and Nelson 1995b). Individual nests in

Washington, Oregon, and California

have been located in Douglas-fir, coastal

redwood, western hemlock, western

redcedar, and Sitka spruce trees.

For nesting habitat to be accessible to

marbled murrelets, it must occur close

enough to the marine environment for

murrelets to fly back and forth. The

farthest inland distance for a known

occupied site is 84 kilometers (52 miles)

in Washington. The farthest known

inland occupied sites in Oregon and

California are 61 and 56 kilometers (38

and 35 miles), respectively. Occupied

sites are defined as forest stands where

marbled murrelets have been observed

exhibiting behaviors associated with

nesting. Additionally, detections (not

occupied sites) have been documented

farther inland in Oregon (S. K. Nelson,

pers. comm. 1995) and California.

Marbled murrelet nests are difficult to

locate for several reasons—(1) nests are

generally located high in the canopy; (2)

adults and juveniles have cryptic

plumage during most of the nesting

season; (3) adults are often (but not

always) extremely quiet in the vicinity

of nests (Nelson and Peck 1995); and (4)

adults may show activity near the nest

only once per day, usually under low

light conditions. Therefore,

identification of occupied sites and

suitable nesting habitat are the best

indicators of potential nest sites.

Indicators of occupied habitat include

active nests; egg shell fragments; young

found on the forest floor; marbled

murrelets seen flying through the forest

beneath the canopy, landing in trees,

circling above the canopy, and calling

from a stationary perch; or large

numbers of murrelets heard calling from

in and around a forest stand.

Inland, marbled murrelets are

generally easier to detect at high-use

sites during the spring and late summer

when breeding activities peak (Paton

and Ralph 1988; Nelson 1989). Inland

detections of the species are less

frequent during the early fall when

murrelets have presumably completed

breeding and are undergoing a flightless

molt at sea. Similarly, murrelets may be

more difficult to detect in areas that

support low numbers of reproducing

pairs, perhaps because birds occurring

in lower densities appear to be less

vocal (Rodway et al. 1993; Dillingham et

al. 1995).

Marbled murrelets spend most of their

lives in the marine environment where

they consume a diversity of prey

species. Areas that support populations

of prey species juxtaposed with nesting

areas are essential to maintaining

successfully reproducing marbled

murrelet populations (Burkett 1995).

Murrelets often aggregate near local food

concentrations, resulting in a clumped

distribution in the marine environment

(Sealy and Carter 1984). Prey breeding

areas (e.g., near-shore kelp beds, sand or

gravel beaches, sand banks, etc.) and

areas where prey may concentrate (e.g.,

near-shore upwellings, waters at the

mouths of bays and coastal rivers,

eddies in the vicinity of headlands, river

mouths and associated plumes, and

tidal rips, etc.) are likely the most

important features determining murrelet

foraging opportunities (Ainley et al.

1995; Hunt 1995). Human-caused

disturbances (e.g., intense commercial

or recreational fishing) may affect prey

density or accessibility.

Most of the information available

about prey species of marbled murrelets

is from the Gulf of Alaska and British

Columbia, and is summarized by

Burkett (1995). Marbled murrelets

generally forage in near-shore marine

waters at distances of 0.3 to 2 kilometers

(0.2 to 1.2 miles) from shore; however,

they occur at distances up to 24

kilometers (14 miles) from shore in

reduced numbers. Marine systems

producing sufficient prey to support

marbled murrelets provide suitable

foraging habitat for the species.

Marbled murrelets have been reported

feeding on a wide variety of small fish

and invertebrates, indicating their

flexibility and capability to use

alternative prey sources. Prey include

Pacific sandlance (Ammodytes

hexapterus), Pacific herring (Clupea

harengus), northern anchovy (Engraulis

mordax), osmerids, sea perch

(Cymatogaster aggregata), euphausiids

(Euphausia pacifica and Thysanoessa

spinifera), mysids (Neomysis spp.), and

amphipods, among others (Sealy 1975;

Sanger 1987; Sanger and Jones 1981;

Carter and Sealy 1990; Strong et al.

1993; Burkett 1995). Fish are an

important component of the diet during

the summer, which coincides with the

nestling and fledgling periods, while

euphausiids, mysids, and amphipods

seem to be more important in the winter

and spring in some areas (Munro and

Clemens 1931; Sealy 1975; Krasnow and

Sanger 1982; Sanger 1983, 1987; Carter

1984; Carter and Sealy 1990; Vermeer

1992; Burkett 1995).

Prior to euroamerican settlement in

the Pacific Northwest, nesting habitat

for the marbled murrelet was welldistributed, particularly in the wetter

portions of its range in Washington,

Oregon, and California. This habitat was

generally found in large, contiguous

blocks (Ripple 1994) as described under

the Management Considerations section

of this rule. The Recovery Team and

others (Ralph et al. 1995b) considered

the loss of nesting habitat to be one of

the primary factors limiting current

population size from British Columbia

to California.

Areas where marbled murrelets are

concentrated at sea during the breeding

season are likely determined by a

combination of terrestrial and marine

conditions. However, nesting habitat

appears to be the most important factor

affecting marbled murrelet distribution

and numbers. Recent marine survey

data confirm earlier conclusions (60 FR

40892) that marine observations of

murrelets during the nesting season

generally correspond to the largest

remaining blocks of suitable forest

nesting habitat (Nelson et al. 1992;

Ralph et al. 1995b; Ralph and Miller

1995; Strong 1995; Varoujean et al.

1994). For example, suitable nesting

habitat data from aggregated GIS

databases (S. Holzman, U.S. Fish and

Wildlife Service, pers. comm. 1996)

were overlain on the aerial survey data

provided by Varoujean et al. (1994) and

the boat survey data provided by Strong

(1995). Highest densities of murrelets

seen in 1992, 1993, 1994, and 1995

closely corresponded with the presence

of large blocks of suitable nesting

habitat on the coasts of northern coastal

Washington and central and southern

coastal Oregon.

Consistent with Varoujean et al.’s

(1994) 1993 and 1994 aerial surveys,

Thompson (1996) found murrelets to be

more numerous along Washington’s

northern outer coast and less abundant

along the southern coast. He reported

that this distribution appears to be

correlated with (1) proximity of old

growth forest, (2) the distribution of

rocky shoreline/substrate versus sandy

shoreline/substrate, and (3) abundance

of kelp; his analysis of these variables is

continuing. In British Columbia,

Rodway et al. (1995) observed murrelets

aggregating on the water close to

breeding areas at the beginning of the

breeding season and, for one of their

two study areas, again in July as young

were fledging. Burger (1995) reported

that the highest at-sea murrelet densities

in both 1991 and 1993 were seen

immediately adjacent to two tracts of

old-growth forest, while areas with very
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations 26259

low densities of murrelets were adjacent

to heavily logged watersheds.

In contrast, where nesting habitat is

limited in southwest Washington,

northwest Oregon, and portions of

California, few marbled murrelets are

found at sea during the nesting season

(Ralph and Miller 1995; Ralph et al.

1995b; Strong 1995; Varoujean and

Williams 1995; Thompson 1996). The

area between the Olympic Peninsula in

Washington and Tillamook County in

Oregon (160 kilometers (100 miles)) has

few occupied sites or sightings at sea of

marbled murrelets. In California,

approximately 480 kilometers (300

miles) separate the large breeding

populations to the north in Humboldt

and Del Norte Counties from the

southern breeding population in San

Mateo and Santa Cruz Counties.

Currently this reach contains few

marbled murrelets during the breeding

season; however, the area likely

contained significant numbers of

marbled murrelets before extensive

logging (Paton and Ralph 1988, Larsen

1991).

In addition to the proximity of

suitable nesting habitat, it is likely that

marine factors such as prey abundance

influence the local distribution of

breeding murrelets (Ralph and Miller

1995; Strachen et al. 1995; Strong 1995).

The influence of prey distribution and

abundance on the distribution of other

alcids has been well documented

(Bradstreet and Brown 1985). In general,

nesting murrelets, which must return to

their nest at least once per day, must

balance the energetic costs of foraging

trips with the benefits for themselves

and their young (Skutch 1979; Ydenberg

1989; USFWS 1995a). Therefore,

breeding adults are energetically

justified in taking relatively long

foraging trips only when they can gain

access to high quality foraging areas

(Bradstreet and Brown 1985; Gaston

1985; Carter and Sealy 1990). Breeding

murrelets are known to cover large areas

at sea to take advantage of foraging

opportunities (Carter and Sealy 1990;

Ralph and Miller 1995; Rodway et al.

1995). Therefore, use of marine habitat

is constrained during the breeding

season by its distance from nesting

habitat and the quality of forage

resources available. This is consistent

with the observed juxtaposition of

suitable nesting habitat and distribution

of murrelets during the breeding season

described above, and it may explain the

differences observed in marine

distribution patterns between murrelets

and other non-forest nesting seabirds

(Varoujean et al. 1994). During years of

low prey availability, the distance from

nesting areas to adequate foraging areas

is probably a critical determinant of

reproductive success (USFWS 1995a).

Marbled murrelets can be adversely

affected by impacts to their nesting

habitat, marine foraging habitat, and

food supply, as well as direct mortality

from human activities such as oil spills

and gillnet fisheries. These impacts, and

the resulting decline from historical

population levels, formed the basis for

the listing of the species as threatened

in 1992 (57 FR 45328). Based on an

analysis of likely ranges of fecundity

and survivorship of this species,

Beissinger (1995) developed a

population model that estimated that

marbled murrelets in Washington,

Oregon, and California may be declining

at a rate between 4 and 6 percent per

year. These results are consistent with

the evidence of a long-term decline from

historical populations.

This decline may be a result of several

factors. In addition to habitat loss and

fragmentation, which may reduce

nesting success, declines may be

exacerbated by high mortality rates of

the young of the year prior to reaching

the ocean, and high mortality rates of

juveniles and adults in the marine and

terrestrial environments.

Marbled murrelets are believed to be

highly vulnerable to predation when on

the nesting grounds, and the species has

evolved a variety of morphological and

behavioral characteristics indicative of

selection pressures from predation

(Ralph et al. 1995b). For example,

plumage and eggshells exhibit cryptic

coloration, and adults fly to and from

nests by indirect routes and often under

low-light conditions (Nelson and Hamer

1995a). Potential nest predators include

the common raven (Corvus corax),

Steller’s jay (Cyanocitta stelleri),

American crow (Corvus

brachyrhynchos), gray jay (Perisoreus

canadensis), great horned owl (Bubo

virginianus), sharp-shinned hawk

(Accipiter striatus), Cooper’s hawk

(Accipiter cooperii), northern goshawk

(Accipiter gentilis), raccoon (Procyon

lotor), marten (Martes americana),

Townsend chipmunk (Eutamias

townsendii), northern flying squirrel

(Glaucomys sabrinus), Douglas squirrel

(Tamiasciurus douglasi), and fisher

(Martes pennanti) (Marzluff et al. 1996).

Ravens, Steller’s jays, and possibly great

horned owls are known predators of

eggs or chicks (Nelson and Hamer

1995b).

From 1974 through 1993, of those

marbled murrelet nests in Washington,

Oregon, and California where success/

failure was documented, approximately

64 percent of the nests failed. Of those

nests, 57 percent failed due to predation

(Nelson and Hamer 1995b). The

relatively high predation rate could be

biased because nests near forest edges

may be more easily located by observers

and more susceptible to predation and

because observers may attract predators.

Hamer and Nelson (1995b) believed that

researchers had minimal impacts on

predation in most cases because the

nests were monitored from a distance

and relatively infrequently, and

precautions were implemented to

minimize predator attraction.

Several possible reasons exist for the

high observed predation rates of

marbled murrelet nests. The first

possibility is that these high predation

rates are normal, although it is unlikely

that a stable population could have been

maintained under the predation rates

presently being observed (Beissinger

1995).

Another reason could be that

populations of marbled murrelet

predators such as corvids (jays, crows,

and ravens) and great horned owls are

increasing in the western United States,

largely in response to habitat changes

and food sources provided by humans

(Robbins et al. 1986; Rosenberg and

Raphael 1986; Johnson 1993; Marzluff et

al. 1994, 1996; National Biological

Service 1996), resulting in increased

predation rates on marbled murrelets. It

has also been proposed that creation of

excessive forest edge habitat may

increase the vulnerability of murrelet

nests to predation and ultimately lead to

higher rates of predation. Edge effects

have been implicated in increased forest

bird nest predation rates for other

species of birds (Chasko and Gates 1982;

Yahner and Scott 1988).

The potential relationship between

forest fragmentation, edge, and adverse

effects on forest nesting birds has

received increased attention during the

last few decades. In a comprehensive

review of the many studies on this

topic, Paton (1994) concluded that

‘‘strong evidence exists that avian nest

success declines near edges.’’ Small

patches of habitat have a greater

proportion of edge than do large patches

of the same shape (Schieck et al. 1995).

However, Paton (1994) noted that many

of these studies involved lands where

forests and agricultural or urban areas

interface, or they involved experiments

with ground nests that are not readily

applicable to canopy nesters such as

marbled murrelets. Paton (1994)

therefore stressed the need for studies

specific to forests fragmented by timber

harvest in the Pacific Northwest and

elsewhere.

Some research on this topic has been

conducted in areas dominated by timber

production and using nests located off

the ground (Ratti and Reese 1988;
26260 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

Rudnicky and Hunter 1993; Marzluff et

al. 1996; Vander Haegen and DeGraaf in

press). Vander Haegen and DeGraaf (in

press) found that nests in shrubs less

than 75 meters from an edge were three

times as likely to be depredated than

nests greater than 75 meters from an

edge. Likewise, Rudnicky and Hunter

(1993) found that shrub nests on the

forest edge were depredated almost

twice as much as shrub nests located in

the forest interior. They also observed

that shrub nests were taken primarily by

avian predators such as crows and jays,

which is consistent with the predators

believed to be impacting murrelets,

while ground nests were taken by large

mammals such as raccoons and skunks.

Ratti and Reese (1988) did not find the

edge relationship documented by

Rudnicky and Hunter (1993), Vander

Haegen and DeGraaf (in press), and

others cited in Paton (1994). However,

Ratti and Reese (1988) did observe

lower rates of predation near ‘‘feathered

edges’’ compared to ‘‘abrupt’’ edges

(e.g., clearcut or field edges), and

suggested that the vegetative complexity

of the feathered edge may better

simulate natural edge conditions than

do abrupt edges. These authors also

concluded that their observations were

consistent with Gates and Gysel’s (1978)

hypothesis that birds are poorly adapted

to predator pressure near abrupt

artificial edge zones.

Studies of artificial and natural nests

conducted in Pacific Northwest forests

also indicate that predation of forest

bird nests may be affected by habitat

fragmentation, forest management, and

land development (Hansen et al. 1991;

Vega 1993; Bryant 1994; C. Chambers,

Oregon State University, pers. comm.

1994; Nelson and Hamer 1995b;

Marzluff et al. 1996). Nelson and Hamer

(1995b), in the only direct measure of

marbled murrelet reproductive success,

found that successful murrelet nests

were further from edge than

unsuccessful nests. Marzluff et al.

(1996) are conducting the only

experimental predation study that uses

simulated marbled murrelet nests, and

they have documented predation of

artificial murrelet nests by birds and

arboreal mammals. Although the study

is still continuing, preliminary results

indicate that proximity to human

activity and landscape contiguity may

interact to determine rate of predation

(J. Marzluff, pers. comm. 1996). Interior

forest nests in contiguous stands far

from human activity appear to

experience the least predation (Marzluff

et al. 1996).

In addition to studies of edge effects,

some research has been initiated to look

at the importance of stand size. Among

all Pacific Northwest birds, the marbled

murrelet is considered to be one of the

most sensitive to forest fragmentation

(Hansen and Urban 1992). Murrelet nest

stand size in Washington, Oregon, and

California varied between 3 and 1,100

hectares (7 and 2,717 acres) and

averaged 206 hectares (509 acres)

(Hamer and Nelson 1995b). Nelson and

Hamer (1995b) found that successful

murrelets tended to nest in larger stands

than did unsuccessful murrelets, but

these results were not statistically

significant. Miller and Ralph (1995)

compared murrelet survey detection

rates among four stand size classes in

California. Recording a relatively

consistent trend, they observed that a

higher percentage of large stands (33.3

percent) had occupied detections when

compared to smaller stands (19.8

percent), while a greater percentage of

the smallest stands (63.9 percent) had

no presence or occupancy detections

when compared to the largest stands

(52.4 percent) (Miller and Ralph 1995).

However, these results were not

statistically significant, and the authors

did not conclude that murrelets

preferentially select or use larger stands.

The authors suggested the effects of

stand size on murrelet presence and use

may be masked by other factors such as

stand history and proximity of a stand

to other old-growth stands. Schieck et

al. (1995) found that murrelet presence

and abundance was positively

correlated with old-growth stand size in

British Columbia, but their data were

not statistically significant. Rodway et

al. (1993) recommended caution when

interpreting murrelet detection data,

such as that used by Miller and Ralph

(1995) and Schieck et al. (1995), because

numbers of detections at different sites

may be affected by variation caused by

weather, visibility, and temporal shifts.

In addition to stand size, general

landscape condition may influence the

degree to which marbled murrelets nest

in an area. In Washington, marbled

murrelet detections increased when oldgrowth/mature forests comprised more

than 30 percent of the landscape (Hamer

and Cummins 1990). Hamer and

Cummins (1990) found that detections

of marbled murrelets decreased in

Washington when the percentage of

clear-cut/meadow in the landscape

increased above 25 percent.

Additionally, Raphael et al. (1995)

found that the percentage of old-growth

forest and large sawtimber was

significantly greater within 0.8-

kilometer (0.5-mile) of sites (203-hectare

(501-acre) circles) that were occupied by

murrelets than at sites where they were

not detected. Raphael et al. (1995)

suggested tentative guidelines based on

this analysis that sites with 35 percent

old-growth and large sawtimber in the

landscape are more likely to be

occupied. In California, Miller and

Ralph (1995) found that the density of

old-growth cover and the presence of

coastal redwood were the strongest

predictors of murrelet presence.

Although ongoing research should

shed more light on the specific factors

that affect murrelet nest predation and

stand size preferences, the best available

information strongly suggests that

marbled murrelet reproductive success

may be adversely affected by forest

fragmentation associated with certain

land management practices. Based on

this information, the Service concludes

that the maintenance and development

of suitable habitat in relatively large

contiguous blocks as described in this

rule and the draft Marbled Murrelet

(Washington, Oregon, and California

Population) Recovery Plan (draft

Recovery Plan) (USFWS 1995a) will

contribute to the recovery of the

marbled murrelet. These blocks of

habitat should contain the structural

features and spatial heterogeneity

naturally found at the landscape level,

the stand level, and the individual tree

level in Pacific Northwest forest

ecosystems (Hansen et al. 1991; Hansen

and Urban 1992; Ripple 1994; Bunnell

1995; Raphael et al. 1995; Schieck et al.

1995).

In addition to predation at the nest,

adult and juvenile murrelets are

vulnerable elsewhere in the terrestrial

and marine environments. For example,

in the terrestrial environment adult

marbled murrelets have been preyed

upon by sharp-shinned hawks,

peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus),

bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus),

and possibly merlins (F. columbarius)

(Marks and Naslund 1994).

In the marine environment, oil spills

and commercial net fisheries adversely

affect marbled murrelets. Clean water is

important for survival and completion

of the murrelet’s life cycle and for the

conservation of the species. Clean,

unpolluted water is essential for

maintaining the health of individual

marbled murrelets and prey species, and

for providing areas for social

interactions and other behaviors.

Marbled murrelets have a high

vulnerability to oiling, and oil spills

have had catastrophic effects when large

spills have occurred in the vicinity of

murrelet concentrations. Impacts have

been particularly severe in Prince

William Sound in Alaska, western

Washington, and central California

(Carter and Kuletz 1995). The 45

marbled murrelets recovered after the
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations 26261

Tenyo Maru spill in 1991 at the mouth

of the Strait of Juan de Fuca in

Washington was the greatest number of

murrelets recovered in any oil spill,

with the exception of the Exxon Valdez

oil spill, and represented a significant

portion of the local population (Carter

and Kuletz 1995). Oil spills may also

affect forage fish populations (Irons

1992; Oakley and Kuletz 1994; Piatt and

Anderson In press), reduce reproductive

success, and disrupt breeding activity

(Carter and Kuletz 1995). Chronic oil

pollution can cause mortality through

oiling and ingestion of oil. Other forms

of pollution may also affect birds

directly through toxic effects on their

food supply.

Mortality of marbled murrelets from

entanglement and drowning in fishing

nets has declined in recent years in

Washington, Oregon, and California, as

fishing effort has declined and

regulations to reduce mortality have

been implemented. However, mortality

is still a concern, particularly in

Washington. Gillnet fisheries are most

significant as a threat to murrelets in the

marine environment in Washington,

although closures of some areas,

specifically to protect marbled

murrelets, were implemented in the

1995 season (USFWS 1995b, 1995c).

Gillnet fisheries no longer occur in

Oregon, with the exception of those in

the Columbia River. In California,

fishing regulations protect most

murrelets from this type of mortality

(Carter et al. 1995).

Gillnet fisheries may occur at the

mouth of the Columbia River, in

Willapa Bay, Grays Harbor, the Strait of

Juan de Fuca, and Puget Sound,

although fishing efforts in coastal

fisheries have been greatly reduced

because of depressed salmon

(Oncorhynchus spp.) runs. An observer

program in 1994 in the all-citizens and

Tribal sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus

nerka) drift gillnet fishery of north Puget

Sound, which is the most significant

fishery in Puget Sound, estimated an

entanglement of 15 murrelets, with a

range of 2 to 59 murrelets (Pierce et al.

1996). A National Marine Fisheries

observer program for marine mammals

on the outer coast fisheries of

Washington, where low numbers of

marbled murrelets are present, did not

document marbled murrelet mortality

(Jeffries and Brown 1993). However, a

number of entangled birds of the

Alcidae family were not identified to

species. Entanglement in other

Washington drift net and set gillnet

fisheries has also been documented

(Speich and Wahl 1989; Craig and Cave

1994; BIA 1994; J. Grettenberger,

USFWS, pers. comm. 1995). Observer

programs in 1993 and 1994 in Puget

Sound salmon purse seine fisheries

indicated that entanglement rates of

marbled murrelets were much lower

with this gear type (Natural Resources

Consultants 1995). To date, there has

not been any documented murrelet

mortalities from gillnet fisheries at the

mouth of the Columbia River.

It is likely that marbled murrelets, like

many other seabirds, are affected by

fluctuations in marine environmental

conditions such as El Nin ̃o events

(USFWS 1995a). In general, increased

mortality of adult seabirds and

decreased reproductive efforts have

been linked with El Nin ̃ o episodes when

food supplies are depressed (Schrieber

and Schrieber 1984; Hodder and

Graybill 1985; Boekelheide et al. 1990),

although there may be marked

differences in effects across regions and

among species with different foraging

styles (Hatch 1987). Marbled murrelets

are relatively opportunistic foragers and

probably have a great flexibility in prey

choice (USFWS 1995a). This capability

may enable them to respond, to some

degree, to changes in prey availability

caused by fluctuating environmental

conditions (USFWS 1995a). In general,

unfavorable conditions can result in

adult mortality and reduced

productivity. However, a seabird’s

relatively long life span is an adaptation

which allows an individual to

reproduce successfully despite adverse

conditions during its lifetime. This life

history strategy serves to maintain a

population despite environmental

fluctuations (USFWS 1995a). However,

cumulative impacts (including nest

habitat loss, oil spills, etc.), in addition

to repeated El Nin ̃ o events in localized

areas over a short time period could

cause serious population declines or

extirpations (USFWS 1995a).

Management Considerations

Marbled murrelets are found in forests

containing a variety of forest structure,

which is in part the result of varied

management practices and natural

disturbance (Hansen et al. 1991;

McComb et al. 1993). In many areas,

management practices have resulted in

fragmentation of the remaining older

forests and creation of large areas of

younger forests that have yet to develop

habitat characteristics suitable for

marbled murrelet nesting (Hansen et al.

1991). Past and current forest

management practices have also

resulted in a forest age distribution

skewed toward younger even-aged

stands at a landscape scale (Hansen et

al. 1991; McComb et al. 1993).

In many portions of the range of the

marbled murrelet during the last 50–70

years, forest management has

concentrated on clear-cut logging

(Hansen et al. 1991). After forests are

clear-cut, the sites are traditionally

replanted to a single or few tree species

and maintained as even-aged stands for

maximum wood-fiber production. Sitepreparation and management activities

may further decrease species diversity

(Hansen et al. 1991). These methods

include prescribed burning and the use

of herbicides or mechanical methods to

control competing vegetation.

Prior to the widespread application of

clearcut timber harvest, historical

logging practices in some portions of the

species’ range consisted of more

selective timber harvest, leaving

remnant patches of forests of varying

ages with older forest characteristics.

The uneven-aged management practices

used in these areas usually resulted in

more diverse forests that may currently

provide some nesting habitat where a

few trees containing suitable marbled

murrelet nesting structure remain

(Hansen et al. 1991).

Current and historic loss of marbled

murrelet nesting habitat is generally

attributed to timber harvest and land

conversion practices, although, in some

areas, natural catastrophic disturbances

such as forest fires have caused losses

(Hansen et al. 1991; Ripple 1994;

Bunnell 1995). Reduction of the

remaining older forest has not been

evenly distributed in western

Washington, Oregon, and California.

Timber harvest has been concentrated at

lower elevations and in the Coast

Ranges (Thomas et al. 1990), generally

overlapping the range of the marbled

murrelet.

Habitat for marbled murrelets has

been generally declining since the

arrival of European settlers. Bolsinger

and Waddell (1993) estimated that oldgrowth forest in Washington, Oregon,

and California has declined by twothirds statewide during the last five

decades. Information specific to the

range of the marbled murrelet is not

available. Historic forest conditions

have been estimated for western

Washington and Oregon by several

authors. Marbled murrelet habitat

represents a significant portion of area

included in these estimates; therefore,

trends in habitat are assumed to follow

the same general pattern identified for

the larger area.

Although the extent of mature and

old-growth forest before the 1800s is

difficult to quantify, western

Washington and Oregon are estimated to

have been covered by approximately 9.7

to 12.8 million hectares (24 to 32

million acres) of forest at the time of

euroamerican settlement in the early to
26262 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

mid-1800s, of which about 5.6 to 7.9

million hectares (14 to 20 million acres)

(60 to 70 percent) are estimated to have

been old-growth (Society of American

Foresters Task Force 1983; Spies and

Franklin 1988; Morrison 1988; Norse

1988; Booth 1991; Ripple 1994). As of

1991, there were approximately 1.4

million hectares (3.4 million acres) of

old-growth forest remaining in western

Washington and Oregon, an 82 percent

reduction from estimated prelogging

levels (Booth 1991).

Estimates for a similar time period in

northwestern California are not as

precise, but suggest there were between

526,000 and 1.3 million hectares (1.3

and 3.2 million acres) of old-growth

Douglas-fir/mixed conifer forest and

approximately 890,000 hectares (2.2

million acres) of old-growth coastal

redwood forest (Society of American

Foresters Task Force 1983; Laudenslayer

1985; Fox 1988; California Department

of Forestry and Fire Protection 1988;

Morrison 1988). Currently there are

approximately 28,000 hectares (70,000

acres) of old-growth coastal redwood

forest remaining in California (Larsen

1991).

Some of the forests that were affected

by past natural disturbances, such as

forest fires and windthrow, currently

provide suitable nesting habitat for

marbled murrelets because they retain

scattered individual or clumps of large

trees that provide structure for nesting

(Hansen et al. 1991; McComb et al.

1993; Bunnell 1995). This is particularly

true in coastal Oregon where extensive

fires occurred historically. Marbled

murrelet nests have been found in

remnant old-growth trees in mature

forests in Oregon.

Forests providing suitable nesting

habitat and nest trees generally require

200 to 250 years to develop

characteristics that supply adequate nest

platforms for marbled murrelets. This

time period may be shorter in redwood

and western hemlock forests and in

areas where significant remnants of the

previous stand remain. Intensively

managed forests in Washington, Oregon,

and California have been managed on

average cutting rotations of 70 to 120

years (USDI 1984; USDA 1988). Cutting

rotations of 40 to 50 years are common

for some private lands. Timber harvest

strategies on Federal lands and some

private lands have emphasized

dispersed clear-cut patches and evenaged management. Forest lands that are

intensively managed for wood fiber

production are generally prevented from

developing the characteristics required

for marbled murrelet nesting. Suitable

nesting habitat that remains under these

harvest patterns is highly fragmented.

Previous Management Efforts

Since 1990, several different

approaches to management of older

forests and their associated species

(including marbled murrelets) have

been developed through various Federal

efforts. These include the Interagency

Scientific Committee’s Conservation

Strategy for the Northern Spotted Owl

(Thomas et al. 1990), the Scientific

Panel on Late Successional Forest

ecosystems commissioned by the U.S.

House of Representatives (Johnson et al.

1991), the designation of spotted owl

critical habitat by the Service (57 FR

1796), and the U.S. Forest Service’s

(Forest Service) Scientific Analysis

Team Report (Thomas et al. 1993). All

of these efforts would have provided

some level of protection to marbled

murrelets but most did not address

murrelets specifically or provide a

framework for a specific marbled

murrelet management strategy.

In July 1993, the Service, Forest

Service, U.S. Bureau of Land

Management, National Park Service,

National Marine Fisheries Service, and

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

released the Report of the Forest

Ecosystem Management Assessment

Team (FEMAT Report) (USDA et al.

1993a). Information from this report was

used in developing the Final

Supplemental Environmental Impact

Statement on Management of Habitat for

Late-Successional and Old-Growth

Forest Related Species Within the Range

of the Northern Spotted Owl (USDA et

al. 1993b) and the Record of Decision

for Amendments to the Forest Service

and Bureau of Land Management

Planning Documents Within the Range

of the Northern Spotted Owl (ROD).

This ROD is referred to as the Northwest

Forest Plan (USDA and USDI 1994). The

FEMAT report and ROD provide a

specific marbled murrelet management

strategy for Federal lands.

Within the range of the marbled

murrelet, the Northwest Forest Plan

designates a system of Late-Successional

Reserves, which provides large areas

expected to eventually develop into

contiguous, unfragmented forest. In

addition to Late-Successional Reserves,

the Northwest Forest Plan designates a

system of Adaptive Management Areas,

where efforts focus on answering

management questions, and matrix

areas, where most forest production

occurs. Administratively withdrawn

lands, as described in the individual

National Forest or Bureau of Land

Management land use plans, are also

part of the Northwest Forest Plan.

Specific measures in the Northwest

Forest Plan protect all occupied

murrelet sites on Federal lands outside

of the Federal reserve system. These

measures include surveys prior to

activities that may affect habitat and

protection of contiguous marbled

murrelet nesting and recruitment habitat

(stands capable of becoming suitable

nesting habitat within 25 years) within

0.8-kilometer (0.5-mile) of areas

occupied by murrelets.

An assessment of population viability

of marbled murrelets was conducted by

the FEMAT. The assessment group

concluded that ‘‘We believe there is

only about a 60 percent likelihood (with

a range of 50 to 75 percent) that the

marbled murrelet population on Federal

lands would be stable and well

distributed after 100 years, regardless of

which option is selected.’’ An

additional assessment based only on the

projected habitat condition at 100 years

concluded that there was an 80 percent

likelihood that nesting habitat would be

well distributed on Federal lands at 100

years under the option most similar to

the current Northwest Forest Plan.

The Service recognizes the value of

the Northwest Forest Plan (USDA and

USDI 1994) and acknowledges its

integral role in marbled murrelet

conservation. The Northwest Forest

Plan complements this critical habitat

designation by stressing the need for

protection of large, unfragmented areas

of suitable nesting habitat that are welldistributed throughout the species’

range, with special emphasis on areas

close to the marine environment.

Concurrently with the

implementation of the Northwest Forest

Plan, the Marbled Murrelet Recovery

Team continues to work on a Recovery

Plan that will outline a strategy for

recovering the species. The Recovery

Plan, which builds on the Northwest

Forest Plan, also addresses management

needs on non-Federal lands and in the

marine environment.

The Marbled Murrelet Recovery Team

is completing a final Recovery Plan that

will outline a strategy for recovering the

species. The draft Recovery Plan

(USFWS 1995a) suggested the

establishment of six Marbled Murrelet

Conservation Zones where viable

populations of murrelets should be

maintained in Washington, Oregon, and

California. The Recovery Team would

designate the Marbled Murrelet

Conservation Zones to address differing

needs for recovery actions in portions of

the marbled murrelet’s range and to

maintain well-distributed populations.

The zones are generally described as

follows: (1) the Puget Sound

Conservation Zone includes all the

waters of Puget Sound, the eastern

waters of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations 26263

associated inland habitat extending 80

km (50 miles) from eastern Puget Sound

and bisecting of the Olympic Peninsula;

(2) the Western Washington Coast Range

Conservation Zone includes the outer

coast of Washington, the western waters

of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and

associated inland habitat extending

inland to the midpoint of the Olympic

Peninsula and in southwest Washington

as far as 80 km (50 miles) from the

Pacific Ocean shoreline; (3) the Oregon

Coast Range Conservation Zone

includes most of the coastal waters of

Oregon (between the Columbia River

and Coos Bay) within 2 km (1.2 miles)

of the shoreline and associated inland

habitat extending inland a distance of

56 km (35 miles); (4) the Siskiyou Coast

Range Conservation Zone includes a

portion of the coastal waters of Oregon

and California (between Coos Bay,

Oregon and the southern boundary of

Humboldt County, California) within 2

km (1.2 miles) of the shoreline and

associated inland habitat extending

inland a distance of 56 km (35 miles)

from the Pacific Ocean shoreline; (5) the

Mendocino Conservation Zone includes

a portion of the California coastal waters

(from the Humboldt County line to the

mouth of San Francisco Bay) within 2

km (1.2 miles) of the shoreline and

associated inland habitat extending

inland a distance of up to 40 km (25

miles) from the Pacific Ocean shoreline;

and (6) the Santa Cruz Mountains

Conservation Zone includes a portion of

the central California coastal waters

(from the mouth of San Francisco Bay

to Point Sur, Monterey County) within

2 km (1.2 miles) of the shoreline and

associated inland habitat extending

inland a distance of up to 24 km (15

miles) from the Pacific Ocean shoreline

(USFWS 1995a).

In the marine environment, several

laws apply that benefit murrelets

directly or indirectly. The Oil Pollution

Act of 1990 addresses the development

of a national planning and response

system for spills in marine and

freshwater environments. A variety of

planning efforts are underway that

address responses to worst-case

discharges of oil or hazardous

substances, and mitigation or

prevention of a substantial threat of

discharge from a vessel, offshore

facility, or onshore facility. Planning

efforts include the development of a

national contingency plan, regional area

contingency plans, and local geographic

response plans. The Service has worked

extensively with the U.S. Coast Guard,

industry representatives, local response

communities, and other State, Federal,

and Tribal natural resource trustees to

develop area contingency plans and

geographic response plans for Pacific

coastal areas. These plans address

mechanical recovery, use of dispersants,

in-situ burning, shoreline cleanup,

protection of sensitive areas, and

protection, rescue, and rehabilitation of

fish and wildlife. These planning efforts

and associated spill exercises should

help prevent or minimize the impact of

spills on natural resources.

Several other marine laws address

threats to murrelets. These include the

Clean Water Act, which regulates the

discharge of pollution into marine

waters and establishes National

Contingency plans to minimize damage

from oil spills; the Coastal Zone

Management Act, which establishes the

Coastal Nonpoint Source Pollution

Control Program; the Marine Protection,

Research and Sanctuaries Act, which

restricts ocean dumping of waste,

including dredged materials, and

establishes marine sanctuaries; and the

Outer Continental Shelf Act, which

regulates offshore oil development.

Mortality of marbled murrelets in

commercial net fisheries in Washington

is being addressed through changes in

State and Tribal regulations. In 1995,

the State of Washington and the Tribes

instituted area closures in a number of

areas with high densities of marbled

murrelets to reduce the potential for

entanglement. In 1995, the first year of

a 2-year study to evaluate modified

gillnets designed to reduce seabird

entanglement was completed, and the

initial results were encouraging (Melvin

and Conquest 1996). Research was also

conducted in 1995 to evaluate the extent

of fisheries/murrelet overlap and factors

that affect entanglement. Educational

programs have been implemented that

provide material to fishermen on

marbled murrelet identification and

distribution. As a result of section 7

consultation, observer programs were

required in 1993 and 1994 to evaluate

and quantify the extent of marbled

murrelet mortality in purse seine and

gillnet salmon fisheries (USFWS 1995b,

1995c).

Finally, the Forest Service published

the ‘‘Ecology and Conservation of the

Marbled Murrelet,’’ a compilation of

original studies and literature reviews

that represents the most current treatise

on marbled murrelets (Ralph et al.

1995a). The document is particularly

valuable for management, because it has

assembled and synthesized most of

what is known about the marbled

murrelet.

Critical Habitat

Critical habitat is defined in section

3(5)(A) of the Act as ‘‘(i) the specific

areas within the geographical area

occupied by the species, at the time it

is listed * * * on which are found those

physical or biological features (I)

essential to the conservation of the

species and (II) which may require

special management considerations or

protection; and (ii) specific areas

outside the geographical area occupied

by a species at the time it is listed * * *

upon a determination * * * that such

areas are essential for the conservation

of the species.’’ 16 U.S.C. 1532(5)(A).

The term ‘‘conservation,’’ as defined in

section 3(3) of the Act, means ‘‘* * * to

use and the use of all methods and

procedures which are necessary to bring

any endangered species or threatened

species to the point at which the

measures provided pursuant to this Act

are no longer necessary * * *’’ 16

U.S.C. 1532(3).

Role in Species Conservation

The use of the term ‘‘conservation’’ in

the definition of critical habitat

indicates that its designation would

include habitat essential to a species’

eventual recovery and delisting.

However, when critical habitat is

designated at the time a species is listed

or before a recovery plan is completed,

the Service frequently does not know all

of the habitat areas that are essential for

a species’ recovery. Thus, the Act

provides that critical habitat

designations may be revised from time

to time (16 U.S.C. 1533(a)(3)(B)).

The designation of critical habitat is

only one of several measures available

to contribute to the conservation of a

listed species. Critical habitat helps

focus conservation activities by

identifying areas that contain essential

habitat features (primary constituent

elements), thus alerting Federal agencies

and the public to the importance of an

area in the species’ conservation.

Critical habitat also identifies areas that

may require special management or

protection. The identification of these

areas may be helpful in planning

federally regulated land use activities.

The added emphasis on these areas for

conservation of the species may shorten

the time needed to achieve recovery.

Critical habitat receives consideration

under section 7 of the Act with regard

to actions carried out, authorized, or

funded by a Federal agency. As such,

designation may affect non-Federal

lands only where such a Federal nexus

exists. Federal agencies must insure that

their actions are not likely to result in

destruction or adverse modification of

critical habitat. Aside from this added

consideration under section 7, the Act

does not provide any additional

protection to lands designated as critical
26264 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

habitat. Designating critical habitat does

not create a management plan for the

areas; does not establish numerical

population goals or prescribe specific

management actions (inside or outside

of critical habitat); and does not have a

direct effect on areas not designated as

critical habitat. Specific management

recommendations for critical habitat are

addressed in recovery plans,

management plans, and in section 7

consultation.

In Washington, specific State Forest

Practices rules are triggered by Federal

critical habitat designation covering

private lands. Under Forest Practices

rules, a forest management activity

within designated critical habitat is

classified as a ‘‘Class IV—special’’ forest

practice. The applicant for the forest

practices permit must submit, in

addition to the usual information for the

Forest Practices permit, an

environmental checklist under the State

Environmental Policy Act (SEPA). This

checklist covers all resources, not just

the species or critical habitat in

question. The Washington Department

of Natural Resources (WDNR) then

makes a threshold determination from

this information. The WDNR may make

a determination of nonsignificance,

mitigated determination of

nonsignificance, or a determination of

significance. If a determination of

nonsignificance or mitigated

determination of nonsignificance is

reached, the action can proceed. If a

determination of significance is made,

preparation of an Environmental Impact

Statement is required. This includes

public involvement, and may involve

significant time delays and costs.

However, the State Forest Practices

Board has the option to exclude any

Federal critical habitat from this

designation under a Class IV special.

State regulations exclude from critical

habitat, and Class IV—Special review

requirements, areas covered by a

conservation plan and permit approved

the Service. State agencies are required

to conduct SEPA review on all State

land projects, so the designation of

critical habitat designation will have

less effect on their process.

In Oregon, State laws and regulations

do not recognize critical habitat.

Therefore, no effect can be attributed to

Federal critical habitat through Oregon

State law for critical habitat designated

on non-federal land.

In California, the California

Endangered Species Act (CESA)

contains a similar concept to critical

habitat called essential habitat. The

State does not necessarily designate

essential habitat in terms of mapped and

described areas, as does critical habitat.

Laws and regulations do not specifically

defer to or recognize Federal critical

habitat. California Department of Fish

and Game biologists, in their normal

CESA and California Environmental

Quality Act (CEQA) review of proposed

activities, may be aware of critical

habitat and consider it in lieu of

essential habitat. However, there is no

requirement to do so, nor any prescribed

manner for treating critical habitat. In

the absence of critical habitat, State

biologists continue to consider the

concept of essential habitat. While State

biologists may use Federal critical

habitat during CESA and CEQA reviews,

the impact is not expected to exceed

impacts under the above laws in the

absence of critical habitat.

Primary Constituent Elements

A designation of critical habitat

begins by identifying areas essential to

conservation of a species. In

determining which areas to designate as

critical habitat, the Service considers

those physical and biological features

essential to a species’ conservation and

that may require special management

considerations or protection. Such

physical and biological features, as

stated in 50 CFR 424.12, include, but are

not limited to, the following:

(1) Space for individual and

population growth, and for normal

behavior;

(2) Food, water, air, light, minerals or

other nutritional or physiological

requirements;

(3) Cover or shelter;

(4) Sites for breeding, reproduction,

rearing of offspring; and

(5) Habitats that are protected from

disturbance or are representative of the

historic geographical and ecological

distributions of a species.

The Service is required to base critical

habitat designations on the best

scientific data available (16 USC

1533(b)(2)). In designating critical

habitat for the marbled murrelet in

Washington, Oregon, and California, the

Service has reviewed its overall

approach to the conservation of the

species. For a thorough discussion of

the ecology and life history of this

subspecies, see the Service’s Biological

Report (Marshall 1988); the final listing

rule published in the Federal Register

on October 1, 1992 (57 FR 45328); The

Status and Conservation of the Marbled

Murrelet in North America (Carter and

Morrison 1992); the Biology of the

Marbled Murrelet: Inland and at Sea

(Nelson and Sealy 1995); the draft

Recovery Plan (USFWS 1995a); the

Ecology and Conservation of the

Marbled Murrelet (Ralph et al. 1995a);

and the Ecological Considerations

section of this rule.

The Service has determined that the

physical and biological habitat features

(referred to as the primary constituent

elements) associated with the terrestrial

environment that support nesting,

roosting, and other normal behaviors are

essential to the conservation of the

marbled murrelet and require special

management considerations.

Within areas essential for successful

marbled murrelet nesting, the Service

has focused on the following primary

constituent elements: (1) individual

trees with potential nesting platforms,

and (2) forested areas within 0.8

kilometers (0.5 miles) of individual trees

with potential nesting platforms, and

with a canopy height of at least one-half

the site-potential tree height. This

includes all such forest, regardless of

contiguity. These primary constituent

elements are essential to provide and

support suitable nesting habitat for

successful reproduction of the marbled

murrelet.

Individual nest trees include large

trees, generally more than 81

centimeters (32 inches) dbh with the

presence of potential nest platforms or

deformities such as large or forked

limbs, broken tops, dwarf mistletoe

infections, witches’ brooms, or other

formations providing platforms of

sufficient size to support adult

murrelets. Because marbled murrelets

do not build nests, moss or detritus may

be important to cushion or hold the egg.

Platforms should have overhead cover

for protection from predators and

weather, which may be provided by

overhanging branches, limbs above the

nest area, or branches from neighboring

trees. Based on current information from

Washington, Oregon, and California,

nests have been found in Douglas-fir,

coastal redwood, western hemlock,

western redcedar, or Sitka spruce

(Hamer and Nelson 1995b).

On a landscape basis, forests with a

canopy height of at least one-half the

site-potential tree height in proximity to

potential nest trees are likely to

contribute to the conservation of the

marbled murrelet. These forests may

reduce the differences in microclimates

associated with forested and unforested

areas (Chen et al. 1992; Chen et al.

1993), reduce potential for windthrow

during storms (Chen et al. 1992), and

provide a landscape that has a higher

probability of occupancy by marbled

murrelets (Raphael et al. 1995). The sitepotential tree height is the average

maximum height for trees given the

local growing conditions, and is based

on species-specific site index tables.

Nest trees may be scattered or clumped
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations 26265

throughout the area. Potential nesting

areas may contain fewer than one

suitable nesting tree per acre.

Within the boundaries of designated

critical habitat, only those areas that

contain one or more primary constituent

element are, by definition, critical

habitat. Areas without any primary

constituent elements are excluded by

definition.

Criteria Used To Identify Critical

Habitat

Several qualitative criteria were

considered in the selection of specific

areas for inclusion in critical habitat.

These criteria are similar to criteria used

in the development of several recent

Federal management proposals, such as

the Scientific Panel (Johnson et al. 1991)

and Northwest Forest Plan (USDA and

USDI 1994). The following is a

description of the criteria considered:

Suitable Nesting Habitat: The

presence of suitable nesting habitat as

defined in the previous section. Suitable

habitat was located through the use of

specific site knowledge, GIS data,

remote sensing data, and aerial photos.

Survey Data: Information about

presence/absence and occupancy were

used to indicate murrelet use areas.

Critical habitat units include most of the

known sites occupied by marbled

murrelets on Federal, State, county, and

private lands. However, known

occupied sites may represent only a

small portion of the population due to

the limited coverage of past survey

efforts.

Proximity to Marine Foraging Habitat:

During the nesting season, marbled

murrelets forage in the marine

environment and return to the nest at

least once daily carrying a prey item to

their young. Foraging and nesting

habitat areas must be juxtaposed within

the flight capabilities and energetic

limits of the species. Critical habitat

units were designated taking into

account the distance of murrelet

detections from the marine environment

in a given area.

Large, Contiguous Blocks of Nesting

Habitat: In response to the problems of

fragmentation of suitable habitat,

potential increases in predation, and

reduced reproductive success, the

Service concentrated on defining critical

habitat units in terms of large,

contiguous blocks of late-successional

forest. The Service used the LateSuccessional Reserve system identified

in the Northwest Forest Plan (USDA and

USDI 1994) to the extent possible to

provide large blocks of habitat. Marbled

murrelet locations and habitat were

considered in the development of these

reserves. State, county, private, and city

lands were included where large blocks

of Federal reserve areas were

insufficient or not available, but where

critical habitat was crucial to retaining

distribution of the species.

Rangewide Distribution: To maintain

the current distribution of the species

and reduce the impact of catastrophic

losses of habitat or murrelets, critical

habitat units were identified throughout

the range of the species in the three

states. Well distributed critical habitat

reduces the probability that a natural or

human-caused catastrophe would

threaten the survival or recovery of the

species in Washington, Oregon, and

California. Catastrophes that might

threaten the species include wildfires,

windstorms or oil spills. Given the

intense site fidelity of many alcid

species, maintaining rangewide

distribution may also be needed to

provide potential source populations for

the recolonization of future habitat.

Adequacy of Existing Protection and

Management: The Service considered

the existing legal status of lands in

designating areas as critical habitat.

Areas with permanent legal protection

of wildlife, such as congressionally

designated wilderness areas, National

Parks, and National Wildlife Refuges are

not proposed unless specific threats

were identified that are not addressed

by existing management and protection.

State park regulations vary, but are often

more recreation oriented, and less

restrictive or protective of wildlife.

Designated Areas Identified by Applying

Criteria

Application of the foregoing criteria

and consideration of comments and

information received as a result of the

supplemental proposal has resulted in

the designation of most of the LateSuccessional Reserves (LSR), as

described in the Northwest Forest Plan,

on Federal lands within the range of the

marbled murrelet in Washington,

Oregon, and California. These areas, as

managed under the Northwest Forest

Plan, should develop into large blocks

of suitable murrelet nesting habitat

given sufficient time. However, LSRs are

plan-level designations with less

assurance of long-term persistence than

areas designated by Congress.

Designation of LSRs as critical habitat

compliments and supports the

Northwest Forest Plan and helps to

ensure persistence of this management

directive over time. In some areas, these

large blocks of Federal land can provide

the necessary contribution for recovery

of the species. In other areas, Federal

ownership is limited and Federal lands

alone cannot meet recovery needs to

reverse the current population decline

in marbled murrelets and maintain a

well-distributed population.

The FEMAT report recognized the

limited ability of Federal agencies to

recover this species on Federal lands

alone. ‘‘Although the Forest Ecosystem

Management Assessment was designed

to address only Federal lands within the

range of the northern spotted owl, the

marbled murrelet is an example of a

species whose life history requirements

cannot be accommodated only on

Federal lands. The marbled murrelet is

a seabird that nests inland and therefore

is influenced by both the marine and

terrestrial environments. Its nesting

range in the three-state area includes

land that is south of the range of the

northern spotted owl. In addition,

several areas that are considered key to

the recovery of the marbled murrelet

involve private and state lands’’

(FEMAT Report at IV–151 and IV–152,

USDA et al. 1993a).

Based on information provided in

public comments, including the

recommendations of the Marbled

Murrelet Recovery Team in the draft

Recovery Plan (USFWS 1995a), the

Service is designating selected nonFederal lands that meet the

requirements identified in the Criteria

for Identifying Critical Habitat section,

where Federal lands alone are

insufficient to provide suitable nesting

habitat for the recovery of the species.

Non-Federal lands are designated as

critical habitat where Federal lands are

limited or nonexistent, and where nonFederal lands are essential for

maintaining marbled murrelet

populations and nesting habitat. State

lands are particularly important in

southwestern Washington, northwestern

Oregon, and California south of Cape

Mendocino. Small segments of county

lands are also included in northwestern

Oregon and central California. This is

consistent with the Memorandum of

Understanding between the Service and

the State of California signed in 1991.

Some private lands are being

designated as critical habitat because

they provide essential elements and

occur where Federal lands are very

limited, although habitat availability on

private land is typically much more

limited than on public lands. These

areas include the Arlecho Basin, which

supports occupied sites in the lowlands

of northern Washington; land

supporting known occupied sites in

southwestern Washington and in the

Siletz River drainage in Oregon; nesting

habitat and occupied sites for the at-sea

murrelet population in the southern

portion of the Draft Recovery Plan’s

proposed Marbled Murrelet

Conservation Zone 4 in California,
26266 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

including the Headwaters Forest area;

and nesting habitat for the central

California population. State, county,

city, and private lands contain the last

remnants of nesting habitat for the

southern-most population of murrelets,

which is the smallest, most isolated, and

most susceptible to extirpation.

Areas Not Designated

Not all suitable nesting habitat is

included in the designated critical

habitat units. Emphasis has been placed

on those areas considered most essential

to the species’ conservation in terms of

habitat, distribution, and ownership.

That does not mean that lands outside

of designated critical habitat units are

not important to the marbled murrelet.

Some Federal lands outside of

designated critical habitat will receive

additional protection from the marbled

murrelet conservation measures

outlined in the Northwest Forest Plan.

Under the ROD, all marbled murrelet

habitat will be surveyed prior to

removal or degradation of habitat, and

all occupied sites will be protected. The

Adaptive Management Areas, matrix

lands, and administratively withdrawn

lands contain areas of occupied habitat

that would be protected from timber

harvest.

Some areas outside this critical

habitat designation may prove to

contain elements important to the

recovery of the species. This includes

several areas recommended in public

comment (see Issue 26). However, under

the Administrative Procedure Act (5

U.S.C. 553), the Service cannot finally

designate areas which were not

included in a proposed rule; and the

Service was under court order to

finalize this designation by May 15,

1996. The Service will consider these

areas for potential inclusion in any

future revisions of marbled murrelet

critical habitat.

In considering whether tribal lands

would be designated as critical habitat,

the Service gave particular attention to

the Federal government’s trust

responsibilities to Native Americans.

The Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation

(Reservation) was considered but not

designated as critical habitat because no

occupied sites have been documented

after 3 years of surveys on various

portions of the Reservation. The

Reservation contains only a small

quantity of fragmented marbled

murrelet habitat and is surrounded by

Federal lands. Some of those Federal

lands contain high quality habitat

supporting occupied sites and are either

designated as critical habitat or

protected as a Congressionally

Withdrawn Area.

Three other areas of Tribal land were

considered for inclusion in critical

habitat, including portions of the

Quinault and Makah Indian

Reservations in Washington and lands

owned by the Siletz Tribe in Oregon.

The Makah Indian Reservation was not

designated because little suitable habitat

remains in this area. The Siletz lands

support marbled murrelets and contain

suitable habitat. However, because these

parcels are small, isolated, and

relatively few, they have limited ability

to contribute to recovery, especially

considering the proximity of Federal

land in the area. Many of these tribal

lands contain murrelet occupied sites

and activities on these areas undergo

section 7 consultation through the

Bureau of Indian Affairs, providing an

option for achieving essential

conservation contributions. Therefore,

the Siletz lands were not included in

the supplemental proposed rule, for any

future revisions to critical habitat for the

marbled murrelet.

The Quinault lands are considered

important to the conservation of the

marbled murrelet. The North Boundary

Area of the Quinault Indian Reservation

contains large blocks of contiguous, oldgrowth habitat. Much of this habitat

currently supports marbled murrelets.

However, the Quinault lands were not

included in the supplemental proposed

rule after consideration of the Federal

government’s trust responsibilities and

the options for achieving essential

conservation contributions through

other alternatives. The Service is still

considering the appropriateness of

designating critical habitat on Quinault

lands, for any future revisions to critical

habitat for the marbled murrelet.

The Service considered including five

marine areas in critical habitat. Clean

water and accessible foraging

opportunities are important life history

requirements for the marbled murrelet.

These five areas support the highest

concentrations of murrelets during the

breeding season in Washington, Oregon,

and California. One area consisted of the

waters of Puget Sound and the Strait of

Juan de Fuca in Washington, including

the waters surrounding the San Juan

Islands. The Service also considered

near shore waters (within 2 km (1.2 mi)

of the shore) along the Pacific coast from

Cape Flattery to Point Grenville in

Washington, from Newport Bay to Coos

Bay in Oregon, from the California State

border to Cape Mendocino in northern

California, and from Pillar Point to

Davenport in central California.

While these marine areas are very

important to the conservation of

marbled murrelets, the Service does not

believe that they require special

management consideration or protection

at this time beyond that provided by the

existing Federal laws and regulations

discussed in the Previous Management

Efforts section. These laws and

regulations specifically address

reducing the threats identified in the

marine environment.

While the draft Recovery Plan clearly

indicates that marine habitat is

important to the survival of marbled

murrelets, it also indicates that the

primary concern with respect to

declining murrelet populations is loss of

nesting habitat. The Service’s evaluation

of the effects of actions in the terrestrial

environment focuses on the impacts to

the species’ nesting habitat, although

take of murrelets is also addressed. With

respect to the marine environment the

Service is primarily concerned with

mortality issues.

Activities or events that adversely

affect marbled murrelets at sea seem to

be more associated with the mortality of

individual birds than with long-term

destruction or adverse modification of

habitat. For example, gillnet fisheries

result in incidental capture of murrelets,

but may not significantly adversely

affect the prey base. Murrelets appear to

forage opportunistically on available

fish, and are likely able to respond to

minor changes in fish abundance and

location.

Murrelets are also adversely affected

by spills of oil and other pollutants.

Although these events undoubtedly

harm the murrelet prey base, their

principal adverse impact is the death of

birds in the area of the event. The effects

of these events on the murrelet prey

base are somewhat more difficult to

predict than are the effects on any

murrelets that happen to be in the area.

The Service’s assessments of these

events typically relies upon an

assessment of the mortality issue rather

than an assessment of habitat issues

such as prey base.

Many of the threats specifically result

in the loss of individuals through death

or injury. Such effects related to projects

authorized, funded, or carried out by a

Federal agency can and should be

considered under section 7 of the Act.

The Service will continue to monitor

marine threats and may propose marine

critical habitat in the future if

warranted.

Changes From the Supplemental

Proposal

The Service reviewed public

comments, information on forest stands

provided by landowners during the

public comment period, aerial

photographs, and updated GIS data. The

Service dropped areas and corrected
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations 26267

area descriptions accordingly.

Generally, the corrections were

relatively minor adjustments to

boundary lines.

A number of proposed units in

southwest Washington on private and

State lands were reduced in size if it

was determined that: (1) primary

constituent elements were not present

or, (2) the area removed was not

considered necessary for the

conservation of the species. The north

portion of Capital Forest (WA–04–a)

was removed because of the lack of

primary constituent elements, coupled

with high levels of motorized

recreational use that further reduce

habitat potential.

In Oregon, the Elliott State Forest was

originally proposed for designation as

critical habitat. The State of Oregon has

since completed the Elliott State Forest

Habitat Conservation Plan that includes

provisions for the marbled murrelet and

received an incidental take permit. This

permit describes how the area will be

managed for murrelets. Therefore, the

Service has removed this area from the

final designation.

On Federal lands in Oregon, the

Service included approximately 100

acres and deleted approximately 300

acres of land on the Siuslaw National

Forest at the request of the Forest

Service. This change reflects a land

exchange intended to protect marbled

murrelet occupied sites. The Service

deleted areas managed by the Siskiyou

National Forest (portions of subunits

OR–07–e and OR–07–f); and the Eugene,

Roseburg and Medford Districts of the

Bureau of Land Management (subunits

OR–04–h, and portions of subunits OR–

06–d, OR–04–f, and OR–04–I) based on

survey information provided by the

agencies during the public comment

period. Survey information included the

location and results (positive and

negative) of murrelet surveys in the

eastern portion of these areas. The

survey locations were based on planned

timber sales and habitat-based surveys

in many areas, rather than a statistically

designed study to determine the inland

distribution of marbled murrelets.

Therefore, the Service was only able to

utilize the survey information in critical

habitat units where the survey effort

was greatest. The Service interprets lack

of detections or occupied sites, when

coupled with habitat information, to

indicate that these areas are currently

likely to support much lower densities

of murrelets than areas closer to the

coast. The Service does not consider

these survey data to be sufficient at this

time to define the full inland

distribution of murrelets in these areas

and does not propose to change the

murrelet zones used in the Northwest

Forest Plan.

In California, some portions of

proposed critical habitat on private and

Federal lands in the Siskiyou Coast

Range Zone (unit CA–10–b and the east

half of unit CA–10–a) and on city and

state lands in the Santa Cruz Mountains

Zone were dropped based on

information provided by the landowners

and land management agencies or other

new information available to the

Service. These areas were dropped

because the Service determined that

they did not contain the primary

constituent elements or were not

considered essential to the conservation

of the species. All of Golden Gate

National Recreation Area was dropped

based on information provided by the

National Park Service indicating that the

Federal government owns the timber

rights to any potentially suitable

murrelet habitat within the area. After

reviewing this information, the Service

has determined that Federal lands

within the Golden Gate National

Recreation Area do not require special

management.

Portions of primary constituent

element (3) from the supplemental rule

(forested areas of at least one-half the

site-potential tree height regardless of

the presence of potential nest platforms)

have been incorporated into primary

constituent element (2) in the final rule,

and the remainder dropped. Forested

areas surrounding nest trees were

retained because they likely contribute

to successful reproductive efforts by

providing the microclimate suitable for

maintaining nest tree characteristics and

potentially reducing predation. The

contribution of forested areas to

successful reproduction likely decreases

with increasing distance from the nest

tree and at some distance the

contribution becomes indistinguishable.

Raphael et al. (1995) found an increased

chance of occupancy in landscape

conditions with increased amounts of

large saw timber and old growth

components within a 0.8 km (0.5 mile)

radius circle. Specific studies are

lacking to document the value of

forested conditions to marbled murrelet

nesting beyond the 0.8 km (0.5 mile)

radius. Therefore, until these studies are

completed, it is the best professional

judgement of Service biologists that

forested conditions within 0.8 km (0.5

mile) of a potential nest tree contribute

more significantly to successful

reproduction than those beyond this

area and the Service has changed the

primary constituent elements

accordingly.

Congressionally Withdrawn Areas

Congressionally Withdrawn Areas

(e.g., wilderness areas and national

parks) are limited in the range of the

marbled murrelet in Washington,

Oregon, and California. Few wilderness

areas are within the flight distance of

marbled murrelets from the marine

environment, although those that are

provide crucial contributions to the

conservation of the species. Wilderness

areas and national parks contain

approximately 302,000 hectares

(747,000 acres) of marbled murrelet

nesting habitat, representing 29 percent

of the suitable nesting habitat on

Federal lands in the range of the

marbled murrelet. However, a

substantial portion of the remainder of

these areas is incapable of producing

marbled murrelet nesting habitat

because of forest composition, lack of

forest cover, elevation, and other

constraints. By themselves,

Congressionally Withdrawn Areas are

incapable of supporting stable and

interactive populations of marbled

murrelets.

Marbled murrelet habitat in

congressionally designated wilderness

areas, national parks, national

monuments (natural areas), and national

wildlife refuges is generally managed by

statutory requirements to protect natural

ecosystems and for the benefit of

wildlife. Thus, habitat in these areas

does not require special management

consideration or protection. For

example, a potential highway

realignment through the Redwood

National Park in northern California

could result in the removal of occupied

habitat. The Park’s statutory authority

and general management goals,

however, are considered adequate to

conserve the species without the

additional designation of critical

habitat.

However, not all Congressionally

Withdrawn Areas are managed in this

manner. For example, some national

recreation areas may not be managed to

maintain older forest habitats or may

face external actions (e.g., outside

ownership of mineral or timber rights)

which may threaten marbled murrelet

habitat within the area. One

congressionally withdrawn area in

California, the Golden Gate National

Recreation Area, was proposed for

designation. Area staff indicated that

potential marbled murrelet habitat

within the area might still be subject to

timber harvest and loss, because the

National Park Service does not control

rights to the standing timber on some

parts of the recreation area. During the

public comment period the National
26268 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

Park Service was able to verify that any

lands where timber rights may not be

secure do not contain potentially

suitable marbled murrelet habitat.

Therefore the Recreation Area was

dropped from designation because

murrelet habitat within the area no

longer needs special management

consideration or protection beyond the

area’s existing statutory requirements.

Several other congressionally

designated areas were considered

important to recovery of the marbled

murrelet because of their location

within the range of the species and

presence of suitable nesting habitat, but

are not designated because they do not

require special management in light of

their existing statutory requirements.

These include: (1) North Cascades,

Olympic, and Mount Rainier National

Parks; Willapa National Wildlife Refuge;

Mount Saint Helens National Volcanic

Monument; Mount Baker, Noisy

Diobsud, Glacier Peak, Boulder River,

Henry M. Jackson, Alpine Lakes,

Clearwater, Norse Peak, Glacial View,

Tatoosh, Buckhorn, The Brothers,

Mount Skokomish, Wonder Mountain,

and Colonel Bob Wilderness Areas in

Washington; (2) Drift Creek, Cummins

Creek, Rock Creek, Grassy Knob, Wild

Rogue, and Kalmiopsis Wilderness

Areas in Oregon; and (3) the Kalmiopsis,

Siskiyou, and Trinity Wilderness Areas;

Muir Woods National Monument and

Point Reyes National Seashore in

California. Portions of the Smith River

National Recreation Area in California

were not included because they did not

contain high-quality nesting habitat.

External threats in these areas are very

limited, management goals are generally

adequate to conserve the species, and

these areas do not require special

management consideration or protection

beyond their individual statutory

authorities.

Economic Analysis Summary

Section 1(b)(2) of the Act requires the

Service to consider the economic and

other relevant impacts of specifying any

particular area as critical habitat. The

Secretary may exclude areas from

critical habitat if the benefits of

exclusion outweigh the benefits of

including the area in critical habitat,

unless failure to designate a specific

area would result in extinction of the

species. The Service contracted with

ECONorthwest, a consulting firm in

Eugene, Oregon, to conduct an

economic analysis of the potential

economic effects of designating critical

habitat for the marbled murrelet. As

required by the Act, the report addresses

only the incremental economic

consequences of the proposed critical

habitat. It does not address the

consequences of listing the species or

other actions that have been proposed or

taken to protect marbled murrelets prior

to this designation.

The habitat covered by the

designation plays a complex role in the

regional economy by producing

multiple, valuable goods and services,

including: the marbled murrelet itself;

other species, including salmon; fresh

water; recreational opportunities; and

timber. The data regarding the

designation’s impacts on some of these

goods and services are not sufficient to

support a detailed conclusion about

whether the proposed designation

would result in net economic benefits or

costs. Evidence indicates, however, that

the designation’s economic benefits

largely offset, and may even outweigh,

its economic costs. The overall net effect

is expected to be close to zero.

The designation will have few

immediate and direct impacts on the

economy. The primary effect of critical

habitat is through the section 7

requirement for Federal agencies to

avoid the destruction or adverse

modification of critical habitat through

actions they fund, permit, or carry out.

The Service, with information provided

by the cooperating Federal agencies, has

determined that the designation of

critical habitat for the marbled murrelet

is not likely to significantly restrict the

activities of any Federal agency,

whether on Federal or non-federal

lands. In particular, although the

designation will reinforce the efforts of

the Forest Service and Bureau of Land

Management to protect and enhance the

terrestrial habitat of the marbled

murrelet, it will not cause these

agencies to manage Federal lands in a

manner that will have immediate, direct

impacts on the flow of timber and other

goods and services from these lands.

For non-federal landowners with

lands included in this designation, the

primary potential for an impact of

critical habitat will be on actions that

require a Federal permit or involve

Federal funding. One of these activities

is the issuance of incidental take

permits under section 10(a) of the Act.

The Service works with landowners, at

their request, in the development of the

HCP required for issuance of the permit

to allow activities to proceed while

minimizing and mitigating for impacts

to listed species. The Service consults

under section 7 on the issuance of the

permit, to ensure the permit will not

jeopardize the species or adversely

modify critical habitat. The Service has

defined critical habitat for marbled

murrelets to exclude lands covered by a

legally-operative incidental take permit

for the species, including marbled

murrelet incidental take permits that

may be issued subsequent to the

designation. Other permitting or

funding agencies have indicated that

they do not expect critical habitat to

have a significant effect on permits or

funding.

The designation may, however, lead

to changes in the actions of the

Washington Department of Natural

Resources (WDNR), which is required

by State regulations to take Federal

critical habitat designations into

account when assessing applications for

permits to conduct logging and other

activities. These regulations require

WDNR to scrutinize more thoroughly

the potential impacts on all aspects of

the environment—natural, recreational,

cultural, and infrastructural—when a

proposed activity will occur inside

designated critical habitat. However,

marbled murrelet critical habitat is

defined to exclude areas covered by

marbled murrelet incidental take

permits. Washington State Forest

Practices regulations exclude areas

covered by a marbled murrelet

incidental take permit from this

requirement.

The economy most directly affected

by the designation—western

Washington, western Oregon, and

northwestern California—is highly

diversified and growing rapidly. Any

potential loss of jobs should be

compensated for by other employment

opportunities as has happened over the

last 15 years in this area. Markets are

expected to respond quickly, whatever

the designation’s impacts on the timber

industry. The designation is unlikely to

cause any change in the prices of timber

and derivative products.

Summary of the Exclusion Process

Under section 4(b)(2) of the Act, the

Secretary may exclude any area from

critical habitat if he determines that the

benefits of such exclusions outweigh the

benefits of specifying such areas as part

of the critical habitat, unless he

determines that the failure to designate

such areas will result in the extinction

of the species concerned. To determine

whether to include or exclude an area,

the Service has analyzed the economic

and conservation benefits of retaining or

excluding critical habitat areas, and

weighed those benefits.

The economic analysis focused on

Federal agencies because the primary

impact of critical habitat occurs through

a Federal nexus. For the supplemental

proposed rule, the Service contacted all

Federal agencies operating within the

range of the murrelet in Washington,

Oregon, and California. The Service
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations 26269

discussed the potential effects of critical

habitat and the various regulatory

activities of the agencies, to assist in

determining whether the proposed

designation would have a potential to

affect the agency’s actions, including

funding and permitting activities on

non-federal lands. Each agency contact

was sent a questionnaire requesting

information on the potential impacts of

the designation on any projects or

activities funded, permitted, or carried

out by their agency, followed by

personal contact. Follow-up contacts

were made with the various agencies to

answer any additional questions. For

the final rule, updates were requested.

Several portions of critical habitat

were dropped from the proposed rule

due to new information made available

to the Service during the public

comment period. Because the effects of

critical habitat designation vary by

ownership and State regulation, the

Service evaluated the effect of the

designation on areas defined by state

and ownership, beginning with critical

habitat areas on Federal land in the

three States. Federal lands are managed

under the same requirements, through

the Northwest Forest Plan. Therefore,

potential effects of critical habitat are

similar for all these lands. Baseline

condition of Federal lands was

established in the Northwest Forest

Plan.

Within each state, the Service

examined the potential effects of critical

habitat on the various ownerships and

areas defined by differences in the

baseline condition. Effects examined

included any potential effects where

Federal permits or funding were

involved. In addition, any effects of

state regulations that tier to Federal

critical habitat were examined.

Based on the impacts revealed by the

economic analysis summarized above,

and careful examination of the

conservation benefits of the critical

habitat units, the Service has

determined that the overall conservation

and other benefits to be gained from the

designation outweigh the benefits of

excluding any remaining areas.

Therefore, the Service did not exclude

any areas during this process and has

made a final determination to designate

critical habitat for the marbled murrelet.

A copy of the economic analysis and

description of the exclusion process

with supporting documents are

included in the Service’s administrative

record.

Effects of the Designation

This designation of critical habitat for

the marbled murrelet identifies 32

critical habitat units encompassing

approximately 1,573,340 hectares

(3,887,800 acres) of Federal and nonFederal lands based on information

available in the Interagency Geographic

Information System (GIS). Twenty-two

critical habitat units include State,

county, city, or private lands. See Table

1.

Some small areas of naturally

occurring or human-created unsuitable

habitat (i.e., areas that have never been

or will likely never be marbled murrelet

nesting habitat, such as alpine areas,

water bodies, serpentine meadows, lava

flows, airports, roads, buildings, parking

lots, etc.) are inside the boundaries of

critical habitat units but are not affected

by the designation because they do not

contain primary constituent elements.

Where possible, these areas were not

included within the critical habitat

boundaries and acreage totals were

adjusted to reflect the exclusion of this

non-suitable habitat. However, many of

these areas are small and could not be

physically identified on the GIS maps.

Current mapping information does not

allow precise identification of the

location of all forest areas containing

primary constituent elements. This is

particularly true for potential nest trees.

These trees are often a small component

of the forest stands and are not recorded

on many timber-oriented data systems.

The Service used the best existing data

to locate the forest areas most likely to

contain the primary constituent

elements. Where possible in the time

frame available, the Service refined the

boundaries of the critical habitat units

to eliminate significant identified areas

that do not contain one or more of the

primary constituent elements based on

the best data available.

Efforts by Federal agencies to survey

for marbled murrelets have been

concentrated in areas of proposed
26270 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

timber sales or limited research

locations. A small fraction of suitable

nesting habitat has been surveyed to

date, and surveys have not been

uniformly spread throughout the range

of the species. Therefore, known

occupied sites provide only a partial

indication of the areas used by the

species. In addition, there are a

significant number of known occupied

sites within Redwood National Park that

are not currently on the database and

are therefore not reported here. The

designated critical habitat includes 695

(86 percent) of the 807 known occupied

sites on Federal lands.

The Service had limited information

about the amount of suitable nesting

habitat or habitat containing one or

more of the primary constituent

elements on non-Federal lands within

the species’ range. The Service relied on

analysis of satellite imagery that does

not identify small features such as

potential nest trees. The Service is

aware of at least 354 known occupied

sites on non-Federal lands, of which 218

(61 percent) are included within critical

habitat. Several of the occupied sites

outside of critical habitat are within the

Elliott State Forest, which is operating

under an active incidental take permit

for murrelets. The Service did receive

specific and detailed information in the

public comments from some nonFederal landowners relative to the forest

condition on their lands. Based on this

information, the Service has removed

from the designation lands that are

unlikely to contain either primary

constituent element.

Available Conservation Measures

Two of the principal purposes of the

Act, as stated in section 2(b), are to

provide a means to conserve the

ecosystems upon which endangered and

threatened species depend and to

provide a program for the conservation

of listed species. The Act mandates the

conservation of species through several

different mechanisms, such as section 7

(requiring Federal agencies to ensure

that their actions will not likely

jeopardize the continued existence of

the listed species or result in the

destruction or adverse modification of

critical habitat); section 9 (prohibition of

taking of listed species); section 10

(habitat conservation plans); and section

6 (cooperative State and Federal grants).

Recovery Planning

Designation of critical habitat does

not offer specific direction for managing

marbled murrelet nesting or foraging

habitat and does not provide a

management or conservation plan for

the species. Guidance for conservation

is generally provided in recovery plans,

which usually include management

recommendations for designated critical

habitat. The Service continues to work

closely with the Marbled Murrelet

Recovery Team relative to critical

habitat.

Recovery planning is an ‘‘umbrella’’

that guides conservation activities under

the Act and promotes a species’

conservation. Recovery plans provide

guidance, which may include

population goals and identification of

areas that are in need of protection or

special management. Recovery plans

also include management

recommendations for areas proposed or

designated as critical habitat. Critical

habitat promotes recovery by

highlighting areas that should be given

additional consideration in local

planning processes. Critical habitat

helps focus conservation activities by

identifying areas that contain essential

habitat features (primary constituent

elements) and that may require special

management or protection. Critical

habitat complements recovery plans by

providing a regulatory mechanism when

a Federal nexus is present to increase

immediate protection of primary

constituent elements and essential areas

and preserve options for the long-term

conservation of the species.

Section 7 Consultation

Section 7(a)(2) of the Act requires

Federal agencies to insure that activities

they authorize, fund, or carry out are not

likely to destroy or adversely modify

designated critical habitat. This Federal

responsibility accompanies, and is in

addition to, the requirement in section

7(a)(2) of the Act that Federal agencies

insure that their actions are not likely to

jeopardize the continued existence of

any listed species. A Federal agency

must consult with the Service if its

proposed action may affect a listed

species or critical habitat. Regulations

implementing this interagency

cooperation provision of the Act are

codified at 50 CFR 402.

Destruction or adverse modification of

critical habitat is defined as ‘‘* * * a

direct or indirect alteration that

appreciably diminishes the value of

critical habitat for both the survival and

recovery of a listed species. Such

alterations include, but are not limited

to, alterations adversely modifying any

of those physical or biological features

that were the basis for determining the

habitat to be critical.’’ 50 CFR 402.02.

Jeopardy is defined at 50 CFR 402.02 as

any action that would be expected to

reduce appreciably the likelihood of

both the survival and recovery of a

listed species in the wild. The scope of

analysis for evaluating the impacts of an

activity on marbled murrelet critical

habitat is the broadly defined unit and

conservation zone, not each individual

acre. The designation of critical habitat

does not create de facto wilderness or

prohibit all human activities within the

boundaries. Many activities may take

place in critical habitat without

resulting in the destruction or adverse

modification of the critical habitat.

Section 10 Incidental Take Permits

(Habitat Conservation Plans)

Section 10(a) of the Act authorizes the

Service to issue permits for the taking of

listed species incidental to otherwise

lawful activities. Incidental take permit

applications must be supported by a

habitat conservation plan (HCP) that

identifies conservation measures that

the permittee agrees to implement for

the species to minimize and mitigate the

impacts of the requested incidental take.

The issuance of an incidental take

permit is a Federal action and is subject

to the consultation requirements of

section 7 of the Act. The Service cannot

issue an incidental take permit if the

HCP would jeopardize any listed

species, or destroy or adversely modify

any critical habitat.

The Service expects that critical

habitat may be used as a tool to help

identify areas within the range of the

murrelet most critical for the

conservation of the species and the

Service will encourage development of

HCPs for such areas on non-federal

lands. The Service considers HCPs to be

one of the most important methods

through which non-Federal landowners

can resolve endangered species

conflicts. The Service provides

technical assistance and works closely

with applicants throughout the

development of HCPs to help identify

special management considerations for

the murrelet. Several HCP efforts are

currently underway in areas designated

as murrelet critical habitat in

Washington, Oregon, and California.

HCPs, coupled with Federal

management under the Northwest

Forest Plan, provide an opportunity to

develop a package of sufficient

management considerations that meet or

enhance the conservation of the species.

Thus, they may remove the need for

special management consideration or

protection, thereby removing the need

to designate such areas as critical

habitat. Therefore, any lands within

critical habitat that are covered by a

legally-operative incidental take permit

for marbled murrelets based on an

approved HCP that addresses

conservation of the marbled murrelet

are excluded from the critical habitat
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations 26271

while the permit is active. The State of

Oregon is currently operating under an

incidental take permit for murrelets on

the Elliott State Forest, therefore this

area has been excluded from critical

habitat.

Basis for Section 7 Analysis

Designation of critical habitat focuses

on the primary constituent elements

within the designated habitat units and

their contribution to the species’

survival and recovery. The evaluation of

actions that may affect critical habitat

for the marbled murrelet would

consider the effects of a Federal action

on any of the factors that were the basis

for determining the habitat to be critical,

including the primary constituent

elements of potential nest trees and

surrounding forest.

The range of the marbled murrelet has

been subdivided by the Recovery Team

into six Marbled Murrelet Conservation

Zones (USFWS 1995a), as discussed in

the Previous Management Efforts

section. These subdivisions were not

based on identification of separate

populations of marbled murrelets, but

rather on the need for potentially

different recovery actions in various

portions of the marbled murrelet’s

range, and the need to maintain welldistributed populations. Marbled

murrelets within the conservation zones

are likely to interact across zone

boundaries at some level.

For a wide-ranging species such as the

marbled murrelet, where multiple

critical habitat units are designated,

each unit has a regional (conservation

zone) and range-wide role in

contributing to the conservation of the

species. The basis for an adverse

modification opinion would be whether

a proposed action appreciably reduces

the ability of critical habitat to function

in achieving the regional conservation

zone goals. In evaluating the effect of a

proposed action, the Service will

analyze the impacts to individual units

in light of their overall contribution to

the survival and recovery of murrelets

in the conservation zone described in

the Previous Management Efforts

section, and the overall range of the

marbled murrelet in Washington,

Oregon, and California. Thus, an

adverse modification finding would be

based upon a broader inquiry than the

mere assessment of adverse effects at the

local unit level. The loss of populations

throughout one or more conservation

zones, or even a major part of a

conservation zone, could lead to genetic

and demographic isolation of parts of

the population.

Examples of Proposed Actions

Section 4(b)(8) of the Act requires, for

any proposed or final regulation

concerning critical habitat, a brief

description and evaluation of those

activities (public or private) that may

adversely modify such habitat or may be

affected by the critical habitat

designation. Regulations found at 50

CFR 402.02 define destruction or

adverse modification of critical habitat

as a direct or indirect alteration that

appreciably diminishes the value of

critical habitat for both the survival and

recovery of a listed species. Such

alterations include, but are not limited

to, alterations adversely modifying any

of those physical or biological features

that were the basis for determining the

habitat to be critical.

A variety of ongoing or proposed

activities that disturb or remove primary

constituent elements may adversely

affect, though not necessarily ‘‘adversely

modify’’ marbled murrelet critical

habitat as that term is used in section 7

consultations. Examples of such

activities include, but are not limited to,

(1) forest management activities which

greatly reduce stand canopy closure,

appreciably alter the stand structure, or

reduce the availability of nesting sites;

(2) land disturbance activities such as

mining, sand and gravel extraction,

construction of hydroelectric facilities

and road building, and (3) harvest of

certain types of commercial forest

products (e.g. moss). These activities

have the following effects on the

primary constituent elements of

murrelet critical habitat:

(1) Removal or degradation of

individual trees with potential nesting

platforms, or the nest platforms

themselves, that results in a significant

decrease in the value of the trees for

future nesting use. Moss may be an

important component of nesting

platforms in some areas.

(2) Removal or degradation of trees

adjacent to trees with potential nesting

platforms that provide habitat elements

essential to the suitability of the

potential nest tree or platform, such as

trees providing cover from weather or

predators.

(3) Removal or degradation of forested

areas with a canopy height of at least

one half the site-potential tree height

and regardless of contiguity, within 0.8

km (0.5 mile) of individual trees

containing potential nest platforms.

This includes removal or degradation of

trees currently unsuitable for nesting

that contribute to the structure/integrity

of the potential nest area (i.e., trees that

contribute to the canopy of the forested

area). These trees provide the canopy

and stand conditions important for

marbled murrelet nesting.

For a proposed action to result in the

destruction or adverse modification of

critical habitat, it must appreciably

diminish the value of critical habitat for

both the survival and recovery of a

listed species in the affected

conservation zone. Each proposed

action requiring a section 7 consultation

must be evaluated individually, in light

of the baseline condition of the critical

habitat unit and conservation zone,

unique history of the area, and effect of

the impact on the critical habitat unit in

light of its regional and range-wide role

in the conservation of the species.

Activities that are acceptable in one

critical habitat unit or conservation zone

may cause serious effects in another,

due to differences in current condition

and conservation needs. Therefore, the

Service cannot provide, in this rule, a

detailed description of the threshold for

future actions that would result in the

destruction or adverse modification of

critical habitat applicable throughout

the range of the species.

A variety of activities would not affect

the primary constituent elements and

therefore would not adversely modify

critical habitat. Such activities would

include, but are not limited to, certain

recreational use and personal-use

commodity production (e.g., mushroom

picking, Christmas tree cutting, rock

collecting, recreational fishing along

inland rivers) and certain commercial

commodity production (e.g., mushroom

picking, brush picking). Actions that

affect forest stands not within 0.8 km

(0.5 miles) of individual trees with

potential nesting platforms (are not

primary constituent elements) also

would not adversely modify critical

habitat, even if they are within the

boundaries of the area designated as

critical habitat.

Activities that do not affect the

primary constituent elements in the

forests are unlikely to be affected by the

designation. However, even though an

action may not adversely modify critical

habitat, it may still affect marbled

murrelets (e.g. through disturbance) and

may, therefore, still be subject to

consultation under section 7 of the Act.

Activities conducted according to the

standards and guidelines for LateSuccessional Reserves, as described in

the ROD for the Northwest Forest Plan

would be unlikely to result in the

destruction or adverse modification of

marbled murrelet critical habitat.

Activities in these areas would be

limited to manipulation of young forest

stands that are not currently marbled

murrelet nesting habitat. These forest

management activities would be
26272 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

conducted in a manner that would not

slow the development of these areas

into future nesting habitat, and should

speed the development of some

characteristics of older forest.

Summary of Comments and

Recommendations on the Supplemental

Proposed Rule

In the August 10, 1995, supplemental

proposed rule for designation of

marbled murrelet critical habitat, the

Service requested all interested parties

to submit information and comments

concerning the proposal. Additional

comments were received at five public

hearings held on the supplemental

proposed rule in Washington, Oregon,

and California.

During the public comment period,

the Service received 339 written

comments. In addition, 60 people

testified at the public hearings. All

comments received are part of the

record for this designation and are

available for public review. Issues raised

during the public comment period that

were not addressed in the body of the

final rule are discussed next.

Legal/Policy

Issue 1: Two commenters questioned

whether the language of a temporary

injunction granted by Judge Chesney of

the United States District Court for the

Northern District of California expanded

the scope of activities subject to

consultation under section 7 of the Act,

and therefore the impact of critical

habitat on non-federal lands.

Service Response: Judge Chesney

ruled that there was a serious question

as to whether the Service’s advice to a

timber company, that proposed logging

would not result in take of the marbled

murrelet in violation of section 9 of the

Act, was an action subject to section 7

consultation. On May 7, 1996, the U.S.

Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

reversed Judge Chesney’s ruling and

concluded that the Service’s advice to a

private entity on compliance with

section 9 is not an action subject to

section 7. Marbled Murrelet v. Babbitt,

No. 95–16945 (9th Cir.).

A Federal nexus refers to a situation

where a Federal agency authorizes,

funds, or carries out an action.

Issue 2: One commenter questioned

whether the acceptance of Federal

funding for a project on a portion of a

State forest would create a Federal

nexus for all activities on the forest.

Service Response: The Federal nexus

would apply only to the funded activity

and related actions. Actions that are

interrelated and interdependent with

the federally-funded activity would be

considered in the biological opinion and

could be subject to modification. Any

modifications suggested by the Service

would, for a non-jeopardy/non-adverse

modification action, be confined to

‘‘minor’’ changes which would still

allow the goals and intent of the project

to be met. Other unrelated actions

would not be covered in the

consultation.

Issue 3: Several commenters

questioned the statement that critical

habitat designation would not affect

activities on State, local, or private

lands unless there is a Federal permit,

license, or funding involved, citing

potential impacts of the designation

through State laws.

Service Response: During the public

comment period, the Service sought and

received additional information on the

potential impact of critical habitat

designation resulting from State laws

and regulations. The potential impacts

vary by state. See the Role in Species

Conservation section for a detailed

discussion of the effects by state.

Issue 4: Several commenters

recommended that the Service postpone

issuing a final rule until additional

studies are conducted and better

information on the species’ biology and

threats is available. Other commenters

suggested that the Service should seek

new information before adopting a final

rule.

Service Response: The Service is

required to use the best available

information in designating critical

habitat. The Service is under court order

to complete the designation of murrelet

critical habitat by May 15, 1996. The

Service did solicit new biological data

and public participation during the

comment period and public hearings on

the revised proposed rule. The Service

will continue to monitor and collect

new information and may revise the

critical habitat designation in the future

if new information supports a change.

Issue 5: Several commenters raised

issues already addressed in the

supplemental proposed rule for the

designation of critical habitat for the

marbled murrelet (60 FR 40892). These

include issues related to the listing of

the species, the potential for critical

habitat to result in the ‘‘take’’ of private

lands, access across critical habitat, the

need for an Environmental Impact

Statement, and questions on the

prehistorical condition of habitat in the

Oregon Coast Ranges.

Service Response: The Service

incorporates by reference its responses

to these issues contained in the

supplemental proposed rule (60 FR

40892). No new information was

provided that would result in any

significant changes to the responses in

the supplemental proposed rule.

Issue 6: One commenter maintained

that the Service failed to distinguish

recovery objectives from the designation

of critical habitat.

Service Response: In the revised

proposed rule, the Service provided

information on the link between

recovery and critical habitat. The areas

designated as murrelet critical habitat

conform to the Act’s requirements for

critical habitat designations. Critical

habitat includes the areas ‘‘essential to

the conservation of the species’’ (16

USC 1532(5)(A)). Conservation is

defined in the Act as actions necessary

to promote recovery of the species (16

USC 1532(3)). Therefore, critical habitat

is linked to recovery.

The commenter also confused the

issuance of a ‘‘no jeopardy’’ biological

opinion on the Northwest Forest Plan

with conservation of the murrelet

throughout three-state range. The

biological opinion on the Northwest

Forest Plan addressed only the impacts

on Federal lands. Conservation of the

murrelet has to be analyzed more

broadly.

Issue 7: One commenter maintained

that the Service failed to provide

reasoned explanation for changes

between the first and second proposals.

Service Response: The Service

addressed the basis and rationale for the

differences in the supplemental

proposed rule (60 FR 40892). In the first

proposal, the Service had indicated that

some revisions might be necessary and

had requested information to assist the

Service in making changes.

Issue 8: One commenter suggested

that the Service provide a method to

correct legal descriptions without going

through the formal rule-making process.

Other commenters suggested that the

Service specify that lands traded from

public to private ownership be excluded

from critical habitat once the trade is

complete. Several commenters believed

that failure to exclude traded areas

would effectively halt the land

exchanges.

Service Response: A rule designating

critical habitat is required to contain a

sufficient description of areas

designated to allow persons to

determine whether a particular segment

of land is included or excluded. If

corrections or clarifications become

necessary, the Service will make them.

Areas were chosen because of their

value to the conservation of the marbled

murrelet. The Service conducts section

7 consultation on any land exchange

that may affect critical habitat. During

the consultation process, the Service

considers the conservation value of the
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations 26273

areas acquired, as well as the potential

effects of the lands traded in

determining whether the action as a

whole would destroy or adversely

modify critical habitat. Even in the

event that a proposed exchange would

result in the destruction or adverse

modification of critical habitat, the

Service will work with the action

agency and any applicants to craft

reasonable and prudent alternatives that

would allow the action to proceed.

Changes in ownership do not by

themselves change an area’s status as

critical habitat. If a portion of land is

moved from Federal to non-Federal

ownership, the effects of the designation

may change. Regardless of the original

ownership, activities on non-Federal

lands are likely to be affected by the

designation only when there is a Federal

nexus or where State law is triggered by

the Federal designation.

Issue 9: One commenter charged that

the Service did not use the best

scientific information. The commenter

interpreted the Act to allow and require

the use of only data, not theories or

interpretations of the data.

Service Response: The Service

believes it has used the best scientific

information available, and will continue

to review new information as it arises.

The Service reviewed all information

provided by commenters on the

supplemental rule to determine if it

supported alternative conclusions.

Science involves not only the use of raw

data, but the hypotheses, theories, and

interpretations derived from those data.

Failure to use such information would

be contrary to good scientific practice

and would not satisfy the Act’s

requirements. The commenter provided

several specific examples, which have

been addressed in the ‘‘Ecological

Considerations’’ section as well as the

Biological Issues in this section of the

rule.

Issue 10: One commenter contends

that the Service erred by designating

areas not ‘‘occupied by murrelets at the

time of listing.’’ The commenter asserts

that on September 28, 1992 (the time of

listing), the species had completed

nesting and were all on the ocean,

therefore no nesting habitat could be

considered occupied at the time of

listing.

Service Response: The commenter’s

interpretation of ‘‘geographical areas

occupied by the species at the time of

listing’’ is erroneous. The commenter

appears to have confused the definition

of ‘‘occupied’’ in the Pacific Seabird

Protocol (designed to determine

potential breeding by birds located in a

specific area in a specific year) with the

biological determination of species

occupancy. Biologists consider all areas

used by members of a species,

regardless of life stage or season, as

within the occupied range of the

species.

Issue 11: One commenter suggested

that the legal descriptions of critical

habitat in areas of intermingled Federal

ownership should specifically exclude

the non-Federal lands through

description, rather than by definition.

Service Response: In the

supplemental proposed rule, the Service

specified the ownerships included in

the designation for each area described.

Within Federal LSRs, only Federal lands

are included by definition, thereby

excluding any non-federal lands. In

addition, only lands that contain the

primary constituent elements are

included by definition. This approach

satisfies the requirements of the Act.

The Service continues to work on

improving the descriptions of critical

habitat units. We appreciate the specific

information provided by private

landowners on their ownerships within

the Federal and State lands designated.

However, in this court-ordered final

designation, the Service has included

and excluded areas by definition.

Issue 12: One commenter maintained

that the Service had ignored the

presence of marbled murrelet habitat in

Congressionally-withdrawn areas,

thereby increasing the area of nonFederal lands designated as critical

habitat.

Service Response: The Service is

cognizant of the murrelet habitat in

lower-elevation, Congressionallywithdrawn areas, including Redwood

National Park. The Service assumes

these areas will retain murrelet habitat

based on the statutory requirements

applicable to these areas and considered

this in its designation of murrelet

critical habitat.

Issue 13: Several commenters

suggested that the rationale for

excluding Congressionally-withdrawn

lands from designation as critical

habitat should also apply to the LateSuccessional Reserves under the

Northwest Forest Plan because these

areas were being managed to provide

old-growth habitat.

Service Response: Congressionallywithdrawn lands are designated by

statute, which secures their status. Any

change to their management requires an

act of Congress. Those areas designated

for management in a manner consistent

with murrelet conservation are expected

to remain so. Therefore, there is no

added value to designating them as

critical habitat. In contrast, plan-level

designations, such as Late-Successional

Reserves, are reviewed and revised

periodically (at least every 10–15 years),

and therefore do not have the secure

status of Congressionally-withdrawn

areas. Critical habitat designation serves

to remind future planners of the

importance of these areas to the

conservation of the marbled murrelet.

Therefore, designation of these areas as

critical habitat is valuable, even if

current management is consistent with

murrelet conservation.

Issue 14: Several commenters

suggested that the explanation for the

exclusion of Tribal lands,

Congressionally-withdrawn areas, and

marine habitat could also be applied to

all terrestrial critical habitat.

Service Response: The Service

discussed of the reasons for each of

these exclusions in the final rule. A

major consideration in the exclusion of

Tribal lands were factors related to the

Federal government’s trust

responsibilities and government to

government relationships with Native

American tribes. Congressionallywithdrawn lands have special and

statutory designations that provide

management protection for wildlife.

In examining the information

provided on marine habitat, the Service

identified two key components of the

marine habitat that are essential to the

conservation of the murrelet, clean

water and food. Marine habitat is not

generally subject to incremental and

continuing losses or removal as

terrestrial habitat is. Threats in the

marine environment are often related to

catastrophic events that cause loss of

individuals, not habitat. The primary

identified threats to marine murrelet

habitat are pollution and toxic spills.

Fishing does not appear to be a threat

to habitat at this time. Several laws

regulate activities that could result in

pollution or toxic spills in the marine

environment that have no counterparts

in the terrestrial environment, and are

briefly described in the Previous

Management Efforts section. Other

marine concerns, such as the effect of El

Nin ̃ o and ocean currents, are outside

human control and would not be

affected by the designation of critical

habitat. The Service will continue to

monitor the degree to which these and

other regulatory measures ameliorate

identified threats and the need for

special management consideration or

protection.

Issue 15: A number of commenters

identified areas that they thought

should not be designated as critical

habitat.

Service Response: If site-specific

documentation on a site was provided

to the Service providing a rationale as

to why an area should not be designated
26274 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

critical habitat, that information was

evaluated and a determination made as

to whether modifications in the

proposal were appropriate. For example,

habitat maps were provided by State

and private landowners in southwest

Washington that allowed the Service to

modify critical habitat boundaries due

to the absence of primary constituent

elements. Federal agencies in Oregon

provided habitat and survey information

that allowed the Service to modify

boundaries.

Issue 16: Some commenters suggested

that the Service was breaching the

Memorandum of Understanding with

the State of California signed in 1991

because the Service is designating nonFederal lands in California.

Service Response: The Service chose

non-Federal lands on the basis of

limited amounts of Federal lands in the

vicinity that could support a welldistributed population of marbled

murrelets and on the basis of the nonFederal land’s contribution to recovery.

Issue 17: One commenter raised the

question of the need to designate private

lands when they would never provide

the large, contiguous blocks of nesting

habitat most desirable for marbled

murrelets.

Service Response: The Service

acknowledges that private lands in

general do not have, nor will they

probably have in the future, the large

contiguous blocks of habitat most

desirable for the conservation of the

marbled murrelet. However, Federal

lands, where large, contiguous blocks of

habitat could be developed, are lacking

in portions of the marbled murrelet’s

range. In these areas, critical habitat

units have been designated because

smaller blocks of suitable habitat on

non-Federal lands are essential for

maintaining the species’ range-wide

distribution and numbers.

Issue 18: One commenter requested

that we be more specific about which,

if any, gillnet fisheries create problems

for marbled murrelets. The commenter

specifically stated that the Columbia

River gillnet fishery was not a fishery

causing problems for marbled murrelets.

Service Response: The Service

presently considers the Columbia River

gillnet fishery a very minor threat to

marbled murrelets relative to other

fisheries, such as the Puget Sound

commercial salmon fishery. This is in

part because of the very limited effort

which now occurs in this fishery. It is

also because the Service recognizes that

there are currently few marbled

murrelets present in the vicinity of the

mouth of the Columbia, although their

historic presence in the area is welldocumented. However, while the

observer program conducted from 1991–

1993 (Jeffries and Brown 1993) did not

specifically describe any entanglement

of marbled murrelets, significant

numbers of unidentified alcids were

entangled. Therefore, it cannot be stated

conclusively that the Columbia River

gillnet fishery does not pose a threat to

marbled murrelets, particularly if

fishing effort were to increase

dramatically.

Issue 19: One commenter stated that

the economic analysis was flawed

because it failed to analyze the

economic effects for each area

separately.

Service Response: The economic

analysis for this critical habitat

designation is sufficient for

consideration of the relevant impacts of

specifying particular areas as critical

habitat.

Issue 20: Several commenters

expressed the opinion that the Service

should consider the economic effects of

critical habitat without adjusting for the

effects of the listing or the Northwest

Forest Plan.

Service Response: The economic

analysis is conducted to allow informed

consideration of the impacts of

designating particular areas as critical

habitat. Areas may be excluded from

critical habitat if the benefits of

excluding the area outweigh the benefits

of including the area, so long as the

exclusion does not lead to the extinction

of the species. For this, the Service

needs to determine the incremental

increase in economic effects from the

designation. In the absence of critical

habitat, the listing of the species, other

laws, and existing Federal land

management plans remain in effect.

Therefore, to determine the actual

impact of a designation, the Service

must determine the effect that will

occur with the designation above and

beyond the existing requirements. To

attribute all economic effects of murrelet

conservation to critical habitat alone

would not provide an accurate

assessment of the impacts of the

designation.

Issue 21: Several commenters

maintained that the removal of 4.4

million acres from the timber base

would have severe economic impacts.

Other commenters addressed individual

areas in a similar manner, making the

assumption that designation would stop

all harvest.

Service Response: Critical habitat

does not stop or prevent all timber

harvest or other activities on designated

lands. In the absence of a Federal nexus

(funding, permitting, authorization, or

action by a Federal agency) or State

regulations tiered to a designation, there

is no effect. Even with a Federal nexus,

projects are not affected unless they

would appreciably diminish the value

of critical habitat for both the survival

and recovery of the species. Whether a

particular activity will appreciably

diminish the value of critical habitat

will depend on several factors,

including the scope, magnitude, and

location of the activities, as well as the

condition of the critical habitat unit and

the Marbled Murrelet Conservation

Zone described by the Recovery Team

(USFWS 1995a). If the critical habitat

areas in a zone are generally in good

condition, the potential for individual

projects to diminish its value is lower

than where critical habitat in a zone is

in poor condition. Based on the

application of previous designations,

significant adverse impacts to

individual critical habitat areas may not

trigger the above threshold.

In addition, timber harvest in

accordance with an approved HCP that

addresses marbled murrelets should

also be unaffected by the present

determination of critical habitat, given

the Service’s intention to defer to the

special management considerations for

the murrelet under the HCP and the

Service’s exclusion of lands covered by

an HCP from critical habitat.

Issue 22: Some commenters disagreed

with the use of sites identified as

occupied by marbled murrelets under

the Pacific Seabird Group protocol as a

criterion for critical habitat designation,

because the commenters believe that

some of the behaviors that resulted in

occupied status were not indicative of

nesting. One commenter suggested that

‘‘the 1994 protocol dropped circling

behavior from the definition of occupied

behaviors.

Service Response: The Service used

all available information in the selection

of areas for designation as critical

habitat. Survey information was only

one of the criteria considered in

selecting areas for proposed critical

habitat designation. Survey results

(including occupied sites, marbled

murrelet presence, and lack of

detections) were used as indicators of

the presence/absence of marbled

murrelets in specific areas. However,

survey efforts have been minimal in

many areas, and coverage of areas is

discontinuous. Such information was of

limited use in designating critical

habitat in portions of the range.

The 1994 protocol did not remove

circling behavior from the definition of

occupied behaviors. In fact, both the

1993 (p. 11) (Ralph et al. 1993) and 1994

(p. 12) (Ralph et al. 1994) versions of the

protocol include it under criteria

indicating occupancy. This relationship
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations 26275

has been statistically analyzed and

verified. Under ‘‘occupied stands’’ (p.

13 and again on pg. 21) in the 1994

protocol, Ralph et al. (1994) clearly state

that birds circling above the canopy is

a criterion indicating occupancy. This

conclusion was affirmed in the March 8,

1995 addendum to the 1995 protocol

(Ralph et al. 1995c), as well as in a

signed declaration prepared by Dr. C.J.

Ralph on September 27, 1995 (Ralph

1995).

Issue 23: Some commenters suggested

that the Service designate additional

habitat to compensate for the loss of

high quality occupied murrelet nesting

habitat that may be harvested as a

consequence of timber sales released by

the so-called ‘‘Salvage Rider’’ (Public

Law 104–19, Section 2001).

Service Response: The government’s

position is that section 2001(k)(2) of P.L.

104–19 expressly forbids the harvest of

identified nesting sites. The Federal

District Court for the District of Oregon

disagreed with the government’s

position and directed the government to

release for harvest the majority of these

sites. The Government has appealed this

decision to the Ninth Circuit Court of

Appeals, and as of this writing the

harvest is temporarily stayed until the

Ninth Circuit rules on the case.

Therefore, the Service believes any

compensatory designation of additional

critical habitat is unwarranted at this

time.

Issue 24: Several commenters

expressed concern that critical habitat is

a disincentive to landowners

contemplating developing habitat

conservation plans (HCPs) within

designated areas.

Service Response: The Service does

not intend to discourage HCPs with the

designation of critical habitat. We

expect that critical habitat may be used

as a tool to help identify areas within

the range of the murrelet more critical

for the conservation of the species. The

Service considers HCPs to be one of the

most important methods by which nonFederal landowners can resolve

endangered species conflicts.

All HCPs are reviewed to determine

whether they are likely to jeopardize the

continued existence of the species or

cause adverse modification to

designated critical habitat. In most

cases, the Service provides technical

assistance and works closely with the

applicant throughout the development

of the HCP to reduce the probability of

the applicant developing an HCP that

would not meet these criteria. Well

developed HCPs should be able to meet

the section 7 requirement to avoid

adverse modification of critical habitat

by providing sufficient special

management considerations for the

constituent elements identified for

murrelet critical habitat. The Service

does not anticipate that the designation

of critical habitat for the marbled

murrelet will affect ongoing negotiations

for HCPs with landowners like the State

of Washington or various large timber

companies.

Issue 25: Several commenters

disagreed with removing areas covered

under an HCP from designation.

Whereas in contrast, another commenter

felt that planning approaches such as

the development of multi-species HCPs

were preferable to critical habitat

designation.

Service Response: The Service

recognizes that critical habitat is only

one of many conservation measures for

federally-listed species. HCPs are

perhaps one of the most important tools

for reconciling land use with the

conservation of listed species on nonFederal lands. Since HCPs can provide

an alternative means of addressing the

special management considerations

necessary for the constituent elements

of marbled murrelet critical habitat,

those areas covered by a legallyoperative incidental take permit for

marbled murrelets based on an

approved HCP are excluded from

critical habitat.

Consistent with this approach, the

Service has not designated the Elliott

State Forest in Oregon as critical habitat

based on the State completing an HCP

for that forest. Other areas without

completed HCPs have been included in

this designation. When those HCPs are

completed and incidental take permits

for marbled murrelets issued, critical

habitat will be lifted.

Issue 26: Numerous commenters

recommended that the Service designate

marine critical habitat. Several

commenters recommended addition of

the following terrestrial areas as critical

habitat:

In California, commenters

recommended inclusion of private lands

in Del Norte, Humboldt, Mendocino,

Sonoma, San Mateo, and Santa Cruz

Counties. One private property owner

requested designation of her 60 acres in

the Santa Cruz Mountains Zone. The

Midpeninsula Regional Open Space

District requested that the District’s

Purisima Creek Redwoods Open Space

Preserve be designated in San Mateo

County. Commenters also suggested

inclusion of county parks along the Van

Duzen River. State lands recommended

for inclusion included Van Damme

State Park and Navarro River Redwood

State Park in the Mendocino Zone, and

Nisene Marks State Park and Soquel

State Demonstration Forest in the Santa

Cruz Mountains Zone. In Washington,

commenters recommended the

inclusion of Washington Department of

Natural Resource lands in the Clallam

Bay block and the Chehalis State Forest,

Deception Pass State Park, additional

lands adjacent to Jim Creek, private

lands in the Mineral block, and private

lands with occupied sites in the north

Cascades.

Service Response: Under the

Administrative Procedures Act (5 U.S.C.

553), the Service cannot finally

designate areas as critical habitat unless

they were proposed for designation in a

proposed rule. Further, the Service is

under a court order to finalize this

critical habitat designation by May 15,

1996. These recommendations will be

considered in any future revisions of

critical habitat for the marbled murrelet.

Biology

Issue 27: Commenters suggested that

prey distribution and abundance, rather

than inland forest conditions, may

dictate murrelet distributions at sea.

Service Response: As described in the

Ecological Considerations section, the

Service agrees that prey distribution and

abundance is an important ecological

factor for murrelets at sea. However,

particularly during the nesting season,

marbled murrelets are found in high

numbers in close proximity to areas

where inland forested conditions are

considered suitable for nesting

throughout large portions of coastal

Washington, Oregon, and California

(Carter and Erickson 1992; Ralph and

Miller 1995; Ralph et al. 1995b; Strong

1995, Varoujean and Williams 1995).

Conversely, marine concentrations tend

to be low where on-shore habitat is

limited. Concentrations of other alcids

during the nesting season in 1994 did

not correspond closely to murrelet

distribution patterns (Varoujean et al.

1994), which one would expect if prey

distribution was the single or most

important determinant of seabird

distribution.

The distribution of marbled murrelets

in the marine environment changes after

the nesting season. This suggests that

proximity to their nesting habitat is

important for marbled murrelets during

the breeding season even though food

may be more abundant elsewhere

(Ralph et al. 1995b). However, changes

in prey distribution and abundance may

sometimes occur coincidentally with

the end of the nesting season. Marbled

murrelets have been documented to use

a variety of prey species, which suggests

that they are capable of exhibiting

flexibility regarding food resources

available to them during the nesting

season. Therefore, the Service believes
26276 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

that the condition of inland nesting

habitat is an important factor explaining

distributions in the marine environment

during the nesting season.

Issue 28: Some commenters disagreed

with Service statements that marbled

murrelets are found in high numbers at

sea in close proximity to areas where

inland forested conditions are

considered suitable for nesting

throughout large portions of coastal

Washington, Oregon, and California.

They contend that the 1994 and 1995 atsea survey data did not support this

assertion.

Service Response: As described in the

Ecological Considerations section, the

Service believes murrelet concentrations

at sea are likely to be determined by a

combination of terrestrial and marine

conditions. However, we believe that

recent at-sea survey data support our

earlier conclusions that marine

observations during the nesting season

generally correspond to the largest

remaining blocks of suitable forest

nesting habitat (Nelson et al. 1992;

Varoujean et al. 1994; Ralph and Miller

1995; Ralph et al. 1995b; Strong 1995).

Issue 29: One commenter stated that

the proposed designation was premised

on the incorrect assumption that the

most important problem for marbled

murrelet conservation was the

availability of terrestrial nesting habitat.

They stated that Beissinger’s model,

along with an additional modeling effort

and other life-history information,

shows that the marine environment is

much more important than the

terrestrial environment and, therefore,

the Service should concentrate critical

habitat designation on marine habitat

features.

Service Response: The Service agrees

that the marine environment is very

important to the murrelet, as discussed

both in the supplemental critical habitat

proposal (60 FR 40892) and the draft

Recovery Plan (USFWS 1995a).

However, there are a number of reasons

why critical habitat is only being

designated in the terrestrial

environment. Currently, factors affecting

the marine environment and murrelets

while at-sea can be addressed through

existing laws and regulations as

discussed in this final rule (see Areas

Not Designated section). In addition,

numerous sources have stated the

importance of nesting habitat as a major

limiting factor in murrelet recovery.

Although adult mortality does occur atsea, it also has been documented in the

terrestrial environment. Therefore, the

designation of critical habitat in the

terrestrial environment is appropriate at

this time.

Issue 30: Several commenters raised

issues related to nest predation and

predator numbers. These were primarily

related to the effects of timber harvest

and forest edge on predator numbers

and marbled murrelet nest predation

rates and the appropriateness of

applying nest predation studies from

other regions of the country to the

Pacific Northwest. One commenter

raised the potential use of predator

control as a management tool. Several

commenters suggested that predator

numbers correlated with human use and

therefore private lands may have fewer

predators than public lands.

Service Response: The Service has

amended the final rule to reflect the

comments and to provide additional

documentation on statements related to

predation. However, as discussed in the

Ecological Considerations section, the

Service believes that existing data

strongly suggest that nest predation may

be significantly higher for some forest

birds nesting near artificially created

edges, even if the exact causal

mechanisms that affect the predation

rates are unclear. The Service agrees

with Paton (1994) and the commenters

that research addressing this issue in

Pacific Northwest forests is needed, and

the Service is currently supporting such

efforts (e.g., Marzluff et al. 1996).

However, the few completed studies

addressing this issue in the Northwest

or in commercial timberland areas

elsewhere indicate the timber harvest in

a forest can increase nest predation rates

on forest birds under certain

circumstances (Ratti and Reese 1988;

Rudnicky and Hunter 1993; Vega 1993;

Bryant 1994; Vander Haegen and

DeGraaf, in press). In fact, Ratti and

Reese (1988) found that abrupt forest

edges created by commercial timber

harvest could lead to increased nest

predation rates, and they concluded that

their data are consistent with the

hypothesis that birds are poorly adapted

to predator pressure near abrupt

artificial edge zones.

Some commenters failed to

distinguish between the studies that

address ground nesting birds (e.g., Small

and Hunter 1988), and those cited by

the Service that concern species that

nest above the ground like the marbled

murrelet. Small and Hunter (1988)

investigated predation rates on ground

nests and concluded that distance from

edge was not related to nest predation

(although they did conclude that nests

in smaller forest fragments were more

vulnerable than nests located in larger

forest stands). They felt their results

were due to the relatively high numbers

of ground predators (i.e., fox, raccoon,

and skunk) compared to low numbers of

bird predators (corvids). These findings

are consistent with the more recent

work of Vander Haegen and DeGraaf (in

press) and Rudnicky and Hunter (1993).

Both of these studies found no edge

effect for ground nests but a two- to

three-fold increase in predation for

above-ground nests near edges when

compared to above-ground nests in the

forest interior. Although not completely

representative of the high canopy

nesting situation of murrelets, these

results are significant because they more

closely approximate the potential

impacts of the avian predators believed

to be affecting murrelets.

Predator control as a management tool

to recover species has been used

effectively only in very limited

situations. It may serve as a short-term

solution to address an immediate threat

while long-term solutions are being

formulated. The high cost, logistical

difficulties and high probability that the

predator control will be unsuccessful

(Goodrich and Buskirk 1996), however,

argue against the use of predator control

for a wide-ranging species such as the

marbled murrelet.

Regarding the issue that levels of

human activity on public lands may

result in predation rates which are

higher than on private lands, the Service

agrees that public lands that are easily

accessible have higher levels of human

use, with resultant activities that are

attractive to corvids. However, corvids

have also been shown to travel

significant distances to urban centers,

dumps, etc. which are often as close or

closer to private lands than to public

lands (Marzluff et al. 1996). The other

factor which appears to increase

predation rates is higher levels of

landscape fragmentation (Marzluff et al.

1996), which is generally greater on

private lands. Therefore, it is difficult to

generalize about the relationship

between land ownership and predation

rates.

Issue 31: One commenter suggested

that the Service ignored the findings of

Raphael et al. (1995) that occupied

murrelet sites had more complex

patterns with more edge, greater variety

of cover types, and more complex

shapes than unoccupied sites. The

commenter indicated that these

conclusions seem to contradict

statements made by the Service

concerning forest edge and landscape

patterns.

Service Response: The Service

disagrees with this commenter’s

interpretation of Raphael et al. (1995).

The most important and relevant

conclusions of Raphael et al. (1995) (M.

Raphael, pers. comm.), are: (1)

proportions of old-growth and large saw
Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations 26277

timber were greater among sites

occupied by murrelets compared to

unoccupied sites, and (2) mean size of

patches of old-growth and large saw

timber were also greater among

occupied sites compared to unoccupied

sites. As Raphael et al. (1995) state,

these findings are consistent with earlier

research documenting the value of large

old-growth stands to nesting murrelets.

These findings support, rather than

contradict, the hypothesis that murrelets

are preferentially selecting larger stands

of older trees for breeding because these

stands and trees have the specific

structural features the birds require.

That the murrelets occur more often in

larger patches (i.e., less edge relative to

area) of old-growth compared to smaller

patches is also consistent with the edgeeffect concerns expressed in this rule.

The Service believes that resident

marbled murrelets may be made more

vulnerable to predation associated with

the newly created edges when existing

old-growth stands are further

fragmented into smaller patches.

Issue 32: One commenter suggested

that the Service conduct a population

viability analysis (PVA) of the marbled

murrelet before designating critical

habitat.

Service Response: This final rule is

directly related to management

directives that preceded or were

developed simultaneously with the

critical habitat rule. Of greatest

significance were the draft Recovery

Plan (USFWS 1995a) and the marbled

murrelet viability panels of the FEMAT

process (USDA et al. 1993a). It is the

Service’s opinion that these efforts

incorporate many of the concepts which

should be considered when a formal

PVA is not conducted (Ruggiero et al.

1994), and provide the best guidance for

management. The function of a PVA is

to incorporate what is known about

population dynamics of a species, and

to analyze the effects of stochastic

events and changes in parameters, as

well as to identify factors for study,

management and monitoring (Lacey in

Press). However, PVA’s can be

compromised because of a lack of

natural history data (Minta and Kareiva

1994). Therefore, the Service believes

that a PVA developed based on current

knowledge of the marbled murrelet

would be premature, and is not a

suitable tool for determining critical

habitat.

Issue 33: Several commenters

suggested that the Service has dismissed

natural marine phenomena as

unimportant in affecting marbled

murrelet population fluctuations and

distributions. One commenter used the

extinction of the Labrador duck

(Camptorhynchus labradorus) as an

example of how marine fluctuations can

cause natural extinctions of marine

birds, and suggested that the current

decline of the marbled murrelet is

analogous to the extinction of the

Labrador duck.

Service Response: As stated in the

Ecological Considerations section and

elsewhere, the Service appreciates the

role that natural marine fluctuations

play in the demography of the marbled

murrelet. The murrelet, like many other

seabirds, is affected by stochastic factors

such as gross water temperature changes

and shifting patterns of prey abundance.

Likewise, it is affected by terrestrial

stochastic factors such as fire and

windthrow. It is a generally accepted

tenet of conservation biology that

extinction for a declining species

becomes more likely due to natural

stochastic factors as a population

becomes smaller and more fragmented.

Maintenance of high quality nesting

habitat in key areas will better enable

the species to successfully endure

marine and terrestrial stochastic events

when they do occur. For example, Clark

et al. (1990) found that limited

availability of suitable nest sites

hindered the population growth and

recovery of red-tailed tropicbirds

(Phaethon rubricauda) following

catastrophic ocean events.

The Service disagrees with the

commenter’s assertion that the Labrador

duck went extinct solely from natural

causes, and that this so-called natural

decline is analogous to natural forces

acting to depress the marbled murrelet

population. Although the Labrador duck

was never very abundant, the best

available information suggests that overexploitation by humans caused the

extinction of the species; the bird was

hunted for market and for down, and its

eggs were collected (Ehrlich et al. 1988;

Terres 1980; Bellrose 1976).

Issue 34: Some commenters

questioned the quality of the data that

the Service used to determine critical

habitat. One commenter questioned the

Service’s use of satellite imagery to

identify critical habitat.

Service Response: The Act requires

the Service to make biological decisions

involving designation of critical habitat

based on the best scientific and

commercial data available. The Service

utilized a number of sources to identify

critical habitat including aerial

photographs and personal knowledge.

The Service maintains that sufficient

data are available to warrant designation

of critical habitat and that this final rule

is based on the best information

available.

Issue 35: Two commenters suggested

exclusion of the proposed critical

habitat units that contain Bishop pine.

Service Response: Two critical habitat

units in California contain mature

Bishop pine forests, Tomales Bay State

Park and Salt Point State Park. These

areas currently do not have any known

records of murrelet detections; however,

the Service is unaware of any surveys

which have been conducted to

determine if Bishop pine forests are

used by marbled murrelets. The Service

has determined that it is appropriate to

designate these Bishop pine areas as

critical habitat because of the lack of

survey data, proximity of these areas to

the ocean, availability of suitable

nesting platforms, and high canopy

cover. In the future, if surveys

determine that murrelets are not nesting

in these stands the boundaries of these

critical habitat units may be revised.

National Environmental Policy Act

The Service has determined that

Environmental Assessments and

Environmental Impact Statements, as

defined under the authority of the

National Environmental Policy Act of

1969, need not be prepared in

conjunction with regulations adopted

pursuant to section 4(a) of the

Endangered Species Act of 1973, as

amended. A notice outlining the

Service’s reasons for this determination

was published in the Federal Register

on October 25, 1983 (48 FR 49244).

Required Determinations

The final rule has been reviewed by

the Office of Management and Budget

under Executive Order 12866. The

Department of the Interior finds that

timely compliance with the provisions

of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5

U.S.C. 601 et seq.) is impracticable in

light of the emergency situation

resulting from the court order requiring

designation by May 15, 1996.

Consequently, the completion of a

Regulatory Flexibility Analysis is

deferred at this time and will be

completed within 180 days. Based on

the information discussed in this final

rule concerning public projects and

private activities within critical habitat

units, it is not clear whether significant

economic impacts would result from the

critical habitat designation. Also, no

direct costs, enforcement costs,

information collection, or recordkeeping requirements would be

imposed on small entities by this

designation. Further, the rule contains

no record-keeping requirements as

defined by the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1980.
26278 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 102 / Friday, May 24, 1996 / Rules and Regulations

Finally, the Department has assessed

the effects of this rule-making action on

State, local, and tribal governments, and

the private sector. The Service has

determined and certifies pursuant to the

Unfunded Mandates Act, 16 U.S.C. 1502

et seq., that this rulemaking will not

impose a cost of $100 million or more

in any given year on local or State

governments or private entities.

MARBLED MURRELET

(Brachyramphus marmoratus

marmoratus)

1. Critical habitat units are depicted

for the States of Washington, Oregon,

and California on the maps below.

2. The primary constituent elements:

individual trees with potential nest

platforms and forest lands of at least one

half site-potential tree height regardless

of contiguity within 0.8 kilometers (0.5

miles) of individual trees with potential

nesting platforms and that are used or

potentially used by the marbled

murrelet for nesting or roosting.

3. A description of the critical habitat

units follows. Where a critical habitat

unit includes Federal lands within the

boundaries of a Late Successional

Reserve established by the Northwest

Forest Plan, those boundaries include

any minor adjustments. Critical habitat

units do not include non-federal lands

covered by a legally operative incidental

take permit for marbled murrelets

issued under section 10(a) of the Act.
