DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR 

U.S. Geological Survey 

Privacy Act of 1974; Amendments to 

Existing Systems of Records 

AGENCY: U.S. Geological Survey. 

ACTION: Proposed amendment of 

existing Privacy Act systems of records. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), the 

U.S. Geological Survey of the 

Department of the Interior is issuing 

public notice of its intent to amend 14 

existing Privacy Act system of records 

notices to add a new routine use to 

authorize the disclosure of records to 

individuals involved in responding to a 

breach of Federal data. 

DATES: Comments must be received by 

June 29, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Any persons interested in 

commenting on these proposed 

amendments may do so by submitting 

comments in writing to the U.S. 

Geological Survey Privacy Act Officer, 

Deborah Kimball, U.S. Geological 

Survey, U.S. Department of the Interior, 

MS–807, 12201 Sunrise Valley Drive, 

Reston, VA 20192, or by e-mail to 

dkimball@usgs.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: U.S. 

Geological Survey Privacy Act Officer, 

Deborah Kimball, U.S. Geological

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 

22, 2007, in a memorandum for the 

heads of Executive Departments and 

Agencies entitled ‘‘Safeguarding Against 

and Responding to the Breach of 

Personally Identifiable Information,’’ the 

Office of Management and Budget 

directed agencies to develop and 

publish a routine use for disclosure of 

information in connection with 

response and remedial efforts in the 

event of a data breach. This routine use 

will serve to protect the interest of the 

individuals, whose information is at 

issue by allowing agencies to take 

appropriate steps to facilitate a timely 

and effective response to the breach, 

thereby improving its ability to prevent, 

minimize or remedy any harm resulting 

from a compromise of data maintained 

in its systems of records. Accordingly, 

the U.S. Geological Survey of the 

Department of the Interior is proposing 

to add a new routine use to authorize 

disclosure to appropriate agencies, 

entities, and persons, of information 

maintained in the following systems in 

the event of a data breach. These 

amendments will be effective as 

proposed at the end of the comment 

period unless comments are received 

which would require a contrary 

determination. The U.S. Geological 

Survey will publish a revised notice if 

changes are made based upon a review 

of comments received.

Proposed Programmatic Safe Harbor 

Agreement for Oregon Chub, 

Willamette Valley, OR 

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of availability; receipt of 

application. 

SUMMARY: The Oregon Department of 

Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) has applied 

to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 

(Service) for an enhancement of survival 

permit pursuant to section 10(a)(1)(A) of 

the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as 

amended. The permit application 

includes a proposed Programmatic Safe 

Harbor Agreement (Agreement) between 

ODFW and the Service. The proposed 

term of the permit and Agreement is 30 

years. The requested permit would 

authorize ODFW to extend incidental 

take coverage with assurances to eligible 

landowners who are willing to carry out 

habitat management measures that 

would benefit the federally-listed as 

endangered Oregon chub 

(Oregonichthys crameri) by enrolling 

them under the Agreement as 

Cooperators through issuance of 

Certificates of Inclusion. The covered 

area or geographic scope of this 

Agreement includes all non-Federal 

properties in the Willamette Valley 

between the cities of Oregon City and 

Oakridge, Oregon, the estimated 

historical distribution of the species. We 

request comments from the public on 

the permit application, proposed 

Agreement, and related documents, 

which are available for review (see 

ADDRESSES below). 

DATES: Comments must be received 

from interested parties on or before June 

18, 2009. The final permit decision will 

be made no sooner than June 18, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: You may obtain copies of 

the documents for review by contacting 

State Supervisor, U.S. Fish and Wildlife 

Service, 2600 SE. 98th Ave., Suite 100, 

Portland, OR 97266; facsimile (503) 

231–6195; or by making an appointment 

to view the documents at the above 

address during normal business hours. 

You may also view the documents on 

the Internet through http://

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under a 

Safe Harbor Agreement, participating 

landowners voluntarily undertake 

management activities on their property 

to enhance, restore, or maintain habitat 

benefiting species listed under the 

Endangered Species Act of 1973, as 

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

Safe Harbor Agreements, and the 

subsequent enhancement of survival 

permits that are issued pursuant to 

section 10(a)(1)(A) of the Act, encourage 

private and other non-Federal property 

owners to implement conservation 

efforts for listed species by assuring the 

landowners that they will not be 

subjected to increased property use 

restrictions as a result of their efforts to 

either attract listed species to their 

property, or to increase the numbers or 

distribution of listed species already on 

their property. Application 

requirements and issuance criteria for 

enhancement of survival permits 

through Safe Harbor Agreements are 

found in 50 CFR 17.22(c). These permits 

allow any necessary future incidental 

take of any covered species above the 

mutually agreed upon baseline 

conditions for those species in 

accordance with the terms of the permit 

and accompanying agreement. 

We jointly developed the proposed 

Agreement with ODFW for the 

conservation of the Oregon chub. The 

area covered by this Agreement includes 

the portion of the Willamette Valley 

estimated to be within the historical 

distribution of the species. Sites not 

currently occupied by Oregon chub will 

have a baseline condition of zero unless 

a landowner is willing to accept a 

baseline greater than zero to support an 

enhanced level of conservation after the 

Agreement expires. Sites currently 

occupied by Oregon chub will have 

their baseline conditions determined on 

a case-by-case basis, with landowner 

consent, by ODFW and the Service until 

a Service-approved protocol for 

determining non-zero baselines is 

developed. 

The purpose of this Agreement is to 

establish new populations of Oregon 

chub as refugia for natural populations 

through translocations and to increase 

the abundance, distribution and 

survival of existing natural populations 

through voluntary habitat improvements 

or protections. The Oregon chub was 

listed as an endangered species by the 

Service in 1993 (58 FR 53800). At the 

time of listing, Oregon chub was known 

to occur at only nine locations within a 

30-kilometer (18.6-mile) reach of the 

Willamette River, representing 

approximately two percent of the 

species’ historic range. In 2007, there 

were 19 populations totaling 500 or 

more individuals. The primary threats 

affecting Oregon chub include: 

Competition and predation by 

nonnative fish; the potential for initial 

or further introduction of nonnative 

fish; vegetative succession of shallow 

aquatic habitats; possible agricultural 

chemical runoff; possible excessive 

siltation from logging in the watershed; 

other threats to water quality (including 

threat of toxic spills, low dissolved 

oxygen); fluctuations in water levels due 

to regulated flow management at flood 

control dams, as well as low summer 

water levels; and the loss of genetic 

diversity as a result of managing Oregon 

chub populations in isolated habitats. 

The status of Oregon chub has 

improved in recent years, resulting 

primarily from successful introductions 

and the discovery of previously 

undocumented populations. A recent 5- 

year status review of Oregon chub 

determined the species no longer 

warrants listing as endangered. A 

proposed rule to downlist the species to 

threatened status is in development, as 

is a proposal to designate critical 

habitat. 

Under this Agreement, private lands 

may be enrolled through individual 

Cooperative Agreements between the 

ODFW and cooperating landowners 

(Cooperators). The duration of the 

Cooperative Agreements will be a 

minimum of 10 years. Cooperators will 

be issued a Certificate of Inclusion 

which will allow activities on the 

Enrolled Properties to be included 

within ODFW’s section 10(a)(1)(A) 

Enhancement of Survival permit. 

Cooperators may renew their 

Cooperative Agreements to remain in 

effect for the 30-year duration of the 

permit. Cooperators will avoid 

conducting activities that could
