Assurances for Neighboring Landowners. KDWP and the Service encourage eligible neighboring landowners concerned with nearby reintroductions of covered species to enroll their property in a Neighboring Landowner Agreement as described in Section 6.0, Neighboring Landowners and Neighboring Landowner Agreements. However, if introductions, reintroductions, and/or translocations are successful, resulting in listed species occupying additional stream and river habitats where adjacent landowners are not enrolled in a Neighboring Landowner Agreement and, therefore, do not receive regulatory assurances, KDWP and the Service will use the maximum flexibility allowed under the ESA Section 10 Exceptions, Section 7 Consultation, and Interagency Cooperation policies to work with these neighboring landowners in cooperative conservation efforts.
