Title: Revised Policy on Interpretation of the Phrase "Significant Portion of Its Range" in the Endangered Species Act's Definitions of "Endangered Species" and "Threatened Species" | |
Abstract:
Pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973, the National Marine Fisheries Service will propose to revise our current interpretation of the phrase "significant portion of its range" as it is used in the Endangered Species Act's (Act's) definitions of "endangered species" and "threatened species." 16 U.S.C. 1532(6); (20). This new interpretation will supersede, in whole or in part, a joint final policy adopted with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) in 2014. This revised policy is to be proposed jointly with FWS. |
