Certificate of Inclusion. The document issued by the Permittee to a Cooperator that conveys the Permit’s incidental take authorization for covered threatened and endangered species. Changed Circumstances – Changes in circumstances affecting a threatened or endangered species or geographic area covered by a Safe Harbor Agreement that can be reasonably anticipated and planned for by the Service (e.g., the listing of a new species, or a fire or other natural catastrophic event in areas prone to such events). Conservation Activities – The actions that will be taken or avoided under this Safe Harbor Agreement to provide a net conservation benefit to the black-footed ferret. Conservation activities may be carried out by the Permittee (or designee), the Cooperator, as described in the Reintroduction Plan for the enrolled property, or partners approved by the Permittee and Cooperator. Conservation Zone – An area that can contribute to the necessary attributes to support at least 30 adult ferrets. Typically, it will be a minimum of 1,500 acres of black-tailed prairie dog occupied habitat or 3,000 acres of white-tailed prairie dog or Gunnison’s prairie dog occupied habitat. It may be owned by one or more Cooperators. All otherwise legal activities may be conducted as appropriate, except those that are incompatible with ferret recovery. Cooperator – Any non-federal landowner––including but not limited to private individuals, Tribes, States, counties, and municipalities––eligible for enrollment in the Safe Harbor Agreement who voluntarily chooses to assist in the development and implementation of a Reintroduction Plan for black-footed ferrets on their lands (or some portion of their lands). Under the Agreement, the Permittee issues each Cooperator a Certificate of Inclusion, which conveys the Permit’s incidental take authorization. Covered Species – The species listed under the Act for which the Safe Harbor Agreement is designed to provide a net conservation benefit and for which incidental take and Safe Harbor assurances are authorized. For this particular Agreement, the covered species is the black- footed ferret. Delist – The removal of a species from a listed status under the Act. Usually delisting is a result of successful recovery actions that have increased a species’ numbers and addressed threats to its viability. For the black-footed ferret, delisting is expected to require the establishment of at least 3,000 breeding adult ferrets in 30 or more populations in at least nine states wit...

Certificate of Inclusion. Upon execution of each Stewardship Agreement, and enrollment in the Safe Harbor Agreement, individual landowners will be given a Certificate of Inclusion (see Appendix A). The Certificate of Inclusion provides the regulatory assurance (i.e. incidental take coverage) to the participating landowner that the enrolled property can be returned to the established baseline condition at the end of the term of the Certificate of Inclusion or sooner, provided a net conservation benefit has already been achieved. The term of the Certificate of Inclusion will generally extend to the end of the Permit term in order to provide the participating landowner with sufficient time to return to their original baseline conditions while also allowing them to voluntarily extend the amount of time that the conservation benefits accrue. The Certificate of Inclusion identifies the property owner for whom incidental take is authorized, references the issued permit number that authorizes the take, and includes a concise legal description of the enrolled property. The Certificate of Inclusion provides the mechanism to commit the enrolling landowner to the terms of the Safe Harbor Agreement and Permit.
