typeregulations.gov FR Doc.2012-31066 RIN0648-XZ59 Docket No.101126590-2478-03 DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Final rule. This final rule is effective on February 26, 2013. Replies to the request for information regarding designation of critical habitat for Arctic ringed seals must be received by February 26, 2013. 50 CFR Parts 223 and 224 SummaryWe, NMFS, issue a final determination to list the Arctic ( Phoca hispida hispida ), Okhotsk ( Phoca hispida ochotensis ), and Baltic ( Phoca hispida botnica ) subspecies of the ringed seal ( Phoca hispida ) as threatened and the Ladoga ( Phoca hispida ladogensis ) subspecies of the ringed seal as endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). We will propose to designate critical habitat for the Arctic ringed seal in a future rulemaking. To assist us in this effort, we solicit information that may be relevant to the designation of critical habitat for Arctic ringed seals. In light of public comments and upon further review, we are withdrawing the proposed ESA section 4(d) protective regulations for threatened subspecies of the ringed seal because we have determined that such regulations are not necessary or advisable for the conservation of the Arctic, Okhotsk, or Baltic subspecies of the ringed seal at this time. Given their current population sizes, the long-term nature of the primary threat to these subspecies (habitat alteration stemming from climate change), and the existing protections under the Marine Mammal Protection Act, it is unlikely that the proposed protective regulations would provide appreciable conservation benefits.

This final rule is effective on December 28, 2012. 50 CFR Part 224 SummaryIn response to a petition from the Natural Resources Defense Council, we, the NMFS, issue a final determination to list the Main Hawaiian Islands insular false killer whale ( Pseudorca crassidens ) distinct population segment (DPS) as an endangered species under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). We intend to consider critical habitat for this DPS in a separate rulemaking. The effect of this action will be to implement the protective features of the ESA to conserve and recover this species.

typeregulations.gov FR Doc.2012-29350 RIN0648-XT12 Docket No.0911231415-2625-02 DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Proposed rule; request for comments. Comments on this proposal must be received by March 7, 2013. See SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION for public hearing dates, times, and locations. 50 CFR Parts 223 and 224 SummaryWe, NMFS, have completed comprehensive status reviews under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 82 reef-building coral species in response to a petition submitted by the Center for Biological Diversity (CBD) to list the species as either threatened or endangered. We have determined, based on the best scientific and commercial data available and efforts being made to protect the species, that 12 of the petitioned coral species warrant listing as endangered (five Caribbean and seven Indo-Pacific), 54 coral species warrant listing as threatened (two Caribbean and 52 Indo-Pacific), and 16 coral species (all Indo-Pacific) do not warrant listing as threatened or endangered under the ESA. Additionally, we have determined, based on the best scientific and commercial information available and efforts undertaken to protect the species, two Caribbean coral species currently listed warrant reclassification from threatened to endangered. We are announcing that 18 public hearings will be held during the public comment period to provide additional opportunities and formats to receive public input. See SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION for public hearing dates, times, and locations.

typeregulations.gov FR Doc.2012-28762 RIN0648-XC32 Docket No.121025586-2603-01 DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Notice of finding; request for information. Scientific and commercial information pertinent to the petitioned action and DPS review must be received by January 28, 2013. 50 CFR Part 224 SummaryWe, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), announce a 90-day finding on a petition to delist the Southern Resident killer whale ( Orcinus orca ) Distinct Population Segment (DPS) under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). The Southern Resident killer whale DPS was listed as endangered under the ESA in 2005. We find that the petition viewed in the context of information readily available in our files presents substantial scientific information indicating the petitioned action may be warranted. We are hereby initiating a status review of Southern Resident killer whales to determine whether the petitioned action is warranted and to examine the application of the DPS policy. To ensure the status review is comprehensive, we are soliciting scientific and commercial information pertaining to this species.
