SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We, the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service),
announce the availability of documents
related to an incidental take permit
(ITP) application under the Endangered
Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA;
16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). The final
environmental impact statement (EIS)
was developed in compliance with the
Service’s decision-making requirements
per the National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), and
is based on the HCP submitted by the
Lower Colorado River Authority’s
Transmission Services Corporation
(LCRA TSC, applicant). We described,
fully evaluated, and analyzed three
alternatives in detail in our 2019 final
EIS.
Our proposed action is to issue an ITP
to the applicant under section
10(a)(1)(B) of the ESA that authorizes
incidental take of the following
federally endangered species:
• Golden-cheeked warbler (Setophaga
[=Dendroica] chrysoparia)
• Whooping crane (Grus Americana)
• Red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides
borealis)
• Ocelot (Leopardus pardalis)
• Houston toad (Anaxyrus [=Bufo]
houstonensis)
• Barton Springs salamander (Eurycea
sosorum)
• Comal Springs riffle beetle
(Heterelmis comalensis)
• Peck’s cave amphipod (Stygobromus
pecki)
• Bee Creek Cave harvestman (Texella
reddelli)
• Tooth Cave spider (Tayshaneta
[=Neoleptoneta] myopica)
• Tooth Cave ground beetle (Rhadine
persephone)
• Madla Cave meshweaver (Cicurina
madla)
• Government Canyon Bat Cave spider
(Tayshaneta [=Neoleptoneta]
microps)
• Helotes mold beetle (Batrisodes
venyivi)
• Ground beetle (no common name;
Rhadine exilis)
• Ground beetle (no common name;
Rhadine infernalis)
The ITP would also authorize
incidental take of the following
federally threatened species:

• Piping plover (Charadrius melodus)
• Rufa red knot (Calidris canutus rufa)
• Jollyville Plateau salamander
(Eurycea tonkawae)
• Salado Springs salamander (Eurycea
chisholmensis)
• San Marcos salamander (Eurycea
nana)
• Georgetown salamander (Eurycea
naufragia)
Also included is the following
species, which is petitioned for listing:
• Spot-tailed earless lizard (Holbrookia
lacerata)
Collectively, these are the covered
species. The permit area for ITP
implementation includes 241 Texas
counties (see figure 1 in the HCP).
Activities covered by the HCP include
construction; operation; upgrade;
decommissioning; and repair and
maintenance of electrical transmission
lines, substations, access roads, and
related infrastructure and facilities
(covered activities). LCRA TSC activities
are classified as (1) new construction,
(2) upgrading and decommissioning, (3)
operations and maintenance, and (4)
emergency responses. The applicant
requested a term of 30 years, starting on
the date of ITP issuance. The applicant
will fully implement avoidance,
minimization, and mitigation measures
to offset impacts to the covered species
according to the HCP and ITP. The
applicant has agreed to include the
following minimization measures:
1. Meet annually with the Service to
discuss upcoming LCRA TSC activities,
updated distribution or occurrence
information for covered species,
opportunities for mitigation, and other
concerns;
2. Perform pre-construction natural
resource assessments to avoid adverse
effects on sensitive environmental
features (including species);
3. Implement best practices and other
measures to reduce environmental
impacts before, during, and after
construction;
4. Provide annual training to LCRA
TSC staff and contractors working on
covered activities regarding the
implementation of the HCP and any
covered species overlapping with
covered activities;
5. Clear and manage vegetation within
rights-of-way using aboveground means
when practicable;
6. Mark those sections of transmission
lines that cross major rivers and out 300
feet from either side;
7. Limit herbicide applications to
woody vegetation that is a potential
threat to the reliability of LCRA TSC
facilities and observe the Service’s
Southwest Region guidance for
pesticide applications;
