Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Revision of Regulations for Interagency Cooperation
Summary
We, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and National Marine Fisheries Service (collectively referred to as the “Services” or “we”), propose to amend portions of our regulations that implement section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. The Services are proposing these changes to further clarify and improve the interagency consultation processes, while continuing to provide for the conservation of listed species.
