that determination based on the criteria
summarized below.
1. The taking will be incidental. We
find that take will be incidental to
otherwise lawful activities, including:
public or private land development
projects; construction, maintenance,
and/or improvement of roads, bridges,
and other transportation infrastructure;
and installation and/or maintenance of
utility infrastructure.
2. The applicants will, to the
maximum extent practicable, minimize
and mitigate the impacts of such
takings. The Applicant’s have
developed and are committed to
implementing a wide variety of
conservation measures intended to
minimize and mitigate the impacts of
incidental taking that may result from
the Covered Activities.
3. The applicants will develop an HCP
and ensure that adequate funding for
the HCP will be provided. The
Applicants have developed an HCP,
which includes a detailed estimate of
the costs of implementing the SEP HCP
(see Chapter 11of the HCP). The funding
necessary to pay for implementing the
SEP HCP will come mostly from
participation fees and public funding
sources.
4. The taking will not appreciably
reduce the likelihood of survival and
recovery of any listed species in the
wild. As the federal action agency
considering whether to issue an ITP to
the Applicants, we have reviewed the
proposed action under section 7 of the
Act. Our biological opinion, dated
November 20, 2015, concluded that
issuance of the ITP will not jeopardize
the continued existence of the Covered
Species in the wild. No areas designated
as critical habitat will be adversely
modified. The biological opinion also
analyzes other listed species within the
planning area and concludes that the
direct and indirect effect of the issuance
of the ITP will not appreciably reduce
the likelihood of survival and recovery
of other listed species or destroy or
adversely modify any designated critical
habitat.
5. The applicants agree to implement
other measures that the Service requires
as being necessary or appropriate for
the purposes of the HCP. We have
assisted the Applicants in the
development of the SEP HCP,
commented on draft documents,
participated in numerous meetings, and
worked closely with them throughout
the development of the HCP, so
conservation of Covered Species would
be assured and recovery would not be
precluded by the Covered Activities.
The SEP HCP incorporates our
recommendations for minimization and

Jkt 238001

mitigation of impacts, as well as steps
to monitor the effects of the HCP and
ensure success. Annual monitoring, as
well as coordination and reporting
mechanisms, have been designed to
ensure that changes in the conservation
measures can be implemented if
proposed measures prove ineffective
(adaptive management).
We have determined that the
Proposed SEP HCP Alternative best
balances the protection and
management of habitat for Covered
Species while providing an efficient
means for compliance with the Act for
the Covered Species in the permit area.
Considerations used in this decision
include whether (1) mitigation will
benefit the Covered Species, (2)
adaptive management of the
conservation measures will ensure that
the goals and objectives of the HCP are
realized, (3) conservation measures will
protect and enhance habitat, (4)
mitigation measures for the Covered
Species will fully offset anticipated
impacts to species and provide recovery
opportunities, and (5) the HCP is
consistent with the Covered Species’
recovery plans, where they exist.
A final permit decision will be made
no sooner than 30 days after the
publication of this notice of availability
and completion of the record of
decision.
