SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Section 3 of the Ensuring Patient
Access and Effective Drug Enforcement
Act of 2016 (EPAEDEA), Public Law
114–145, called for the Department of
Health and Human Services, acting
through the Commissioner of Food and
Drugs, the Administrator of the
Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration, the Director of
the Agency for Healthcare Research and
Quality, and the Director of the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention, and
in coordination with the Administrator
of the Drug Enforcement Administration
and in consultation with the Secretary
of Defense and the Secretary of Veterans
Affairs, to submit a report to Congress
that identifies:
• Obstacles to legitimate patient access
to controlled substances
• issues with diversion of controlled
substances
• how collaboration between Federal,
State, local, and tribal law
enforcement agencies and the
pharmaceutical industry can benefit
patients and prevent diversion and
abuse of controlled substances;
• the availability of medical education,
training opportunities, and
comprehensive clinical guidance for
pain management and opioid
prescribing, and any gaps that should
be addressed
• beneficial enhancements to State
prescription drug monitoring
programs, including enhancements to
require comprehensive prescriber
input and to expand access to the
programs for appropriate authorized
users

• steps to improve reporting
requirements so that the public and
Congress have more information
regarding prescription opioids, such
as the volume and formulation of
prescription opioids prescribed
annually, the dispensing of such
prescription opioids, and outliers and
trends within large data sets.
The grant applications and the
discussions could disclose confidential
trade secrets or commercial property
such as patentable material, and
personal information concerning
individuals associated with the grant
applications, the disclosure of which
would constitute a clearly unwarranted
invasion of personal privacy.

We, the U.S. Fish and

on the best scientific and commercial
data available at the time of the review;
therefore, we are requesting submission
of any such information that has become
available since the last review for the
species.
SUMMARY:
To ensure consideration, we are
requesting submission of new

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Why do we conduct a 5-year review?
Under the Endangered Species Act of
1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531
et seq.), we maintain Lists of
Endangered and Threatened Wildlife
and Plants (which we collectively refer
to as the List). Wildlife and plants on
the List can be found at http://
ecos.fws.gov/tess_public/pub/listed
Animals.jsp and http://ecos.fws.gov/
tess_public/pub/listedPlants.jsp,
respectively. Section 4(c)(2)(A) of the
ESA requires us to review each listed
species’ status at least once every 5
years. Our regulations at 50 CFR 424.21
require that we publish a notice in the
Federal Register announcing those
species under active review. For
additional information about 5-year
reviews, refer to our factsheet at http://
www.fws.gov/endangered/what-we-do/
recovery-overview.html.
What information do we consider in
our review?
A 5-year review considers all new
information available at the time of the
review. In conducting these reviews, we
consider the best scientific and
commercial data that have become
available since the listing determination
or most recent status review, such as:
(A) Species biology, including but not
limited to population trends,
distribution, abundance, demographics,
and genetics;
(B) Habitat conditions, including but
not limited to amount, distribution, and
suitability;
(C) Conservation measures that have
been implemented that benefit the
species;
(D) Threat status and trends in
relation to the five listing factors (as
defined in section 4(a)(1) of the ESA);
and
(E) Other new information, data, or
corrections, including but not limited to
taxonomic or nomenclatural changes,
