Abstract: n accordance with Section 4(d) of the Endangered Species Act (ESA), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) promulgates regulations that would prohibit "take" (e.g., harassment or harm) of threatened salmonids. These regulations identify conservation-oriented programs or circumstances in which the ESA's take prohibitions would not apply. States, local governments, and other entities may submit information to demonstrate that a program qualifies to be within those specified programs or circumstances (and therefore would not be subject to the prohibitions).
