Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Revised Critical
Habitat for the Contiguous United States Distinct Population Segment of
the Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis)
AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.
ACTION: Revised proposed rule; reopening of comment period and
announcement of public hearings, notice of availability of draft
economic analysis, amended required determinations, and draft
environmental assessment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), announce the
reopening of the public comment period and the scheduling of public
hearings on the proposed revised designation of critical habitat for
the contiguous United States distinct population segment of the Canada lynx (Lynx
canadensis) (lynx) under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended
(Act). We also announce the availability for public comment of the
draft economic analysis (DEA), an amended required determinations
section of the proposal, and the draft environmental assessment for the
proposed revised critical habitat designation. We also seek comment on
draft conservation agreements that cover lands in Maine (Unit 1) and in
the northern Rockies (Unit 3) that could result in exclusions from the
final critical habitat designation under section 4(b)(2) of the Act. We
also seek public comment on whether lands entered in to the Healthy
Forest Reserve Program are appropriate for exclusion. In addition, we
propose to refine boundary descriptions for two critical habitat units:
Unit 3 (Northern Rockies) and Unit 5 (Greater Yellowstone Area) based
upon more detailed information we have obtained about lynx habitat in
these areas. If you submitted comments previously, then you do not need
to resubmit them because we have already incorporated them into the
public record and we will fully consider them in preparation of our
final determination.
DATES: Written Comments: We will accept public comments received on or
before November 20, 2008.
Public Hearings: We announce two public hearings, to be held on
November 7, 2008, at Red Lion Hotel, 20 N. Main Street, Kalispell, MT
59901 and on November 13, 2008 at Cody Auditorium, 1240 Beck Avenue,
Cody, WY 82414. Both hearings, open to all who wish to provide formal,
oral comments regarding the proposed revised critical habitat, will be
held from 6 to 8 p.m., mountain time, with an open house from 5 to 6
p.m., mountain time.
