30-day FR Notice

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 227 / Wednesday, November 25, 2015 / Notices
Our Preliminary Determination

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

The Service has made a preliminary
determination that the applicant’s
project, including the mitigation
measures, will individually and
cumulatively have a minor or negligible
effect on the species covered in the
HCP. Therefore, issuance of the ITP is
a ‘‘low-effect’’ action and qualifies as a
categorical exclusion under the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) (40
CFR 1506.6), as provided by the
Department of the Interior Manual (516
DM 2 Appendix 1 and 516 DM 6
Appendix 1). We base our preliminary
determination that issuance of the ITP
qualifies as a low-effect action on the
following three criteria: (1)
Implementation of the project would
result in minor or negligible effects on
federally listed, proposed, and
candidate species and their habitats; (2)
Implementation of the project would
result in minor or negligible effects on
other environmental values or
resources; and (3) Impacts of the project,
considered together with the impacts of
other past, present, and reasonably
foreseeable similarly situated projects,
would not result, over time, in
cumulative effects to environmental
values or resources that would be
considered significant. This preliminary
determination may be revised based on
our review of public comments that we
receive in response to this notice.

Next Steps

tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

The Service will evaluate the HCP
and comments submitted thereon to
determine whether the application
meets the requirements of section 10(a)
of the Act. The Service will also
evaluate whether issuance of the section
10(a)(1)(B) ITP complies with section 7
of the Act by conducting an intraService section 7 consultation. The
results of this consultation, in
combination with the above findings,
will be used in the final analysis to
determine whether or not to issue the
ITP. If it is determined that the
requirements of the Act are met, the ITP
will be issued.
Authority: We provide this notice under
Section 10 of the Endangered Species Act (16
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) and NEPA regulations
(40 CFR 1506.6).
