Title: Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Reclassification of the Kirtland's Warbler From Endangered to Threatened 
Abstract:

We propose to reclassify the Kirtland’s warbler from endangered to threatened on the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife. The Kirtland’s warbler is found in 31 states and the District of Columbia, ranging from Maine south to Florida and west to the Mississippi River Basin, and in Canada and The Bahamas. We will also propose a rule under section 4(d) of the Endangered Species Act to specify take exemptions for the Kirtland’s warbler.
