INCIDENTAL TAKE OF COVERED SPECIES Sample Clauses

INCIDENTAL TAKE OF COVERED SPECIES. As used in this Agreement, incidental take refers to the unintentional or unavoidable killing or injuring of individuals of the Covered Species in the course of carrying out otherwise lawful activities. Section 3(19) of the Act defines take to mean to harass, harm, pursue, xxxx, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct. Service regulations (50 CFR 17.3) define harm to include significant habitat modification or degradation which actually kills or injures wildlife by significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns, including breeding, feeding, or sheltering. Harassment is defined by the Service as an intentional or negligent action that creates the likelihood of injury to wildlife by annoying it to such an extent as to significantly disrupt normal behavioral patterns which include, but are not limited to, breeding, feeding, or sheltering. Nothing in this Agreement authorizes the District to deliberately kill or injure any such species. Safe harbor agreements are written in anticipation that take of the Covered Species and their progeny could occur at some point in the future. Any take that occurs as a result of a reduction in the quality and/or quantity of the established Baseline on the Enrolled Property is not authorized. Under this Agreement, incidental take could occur as a result of the Beneficial Management Activities and the Other Management Activities, described in Part 5 of this Agreement, and as a result of the potential return to Baseline at the termination of the Agreement and its associated Permit. The District may conduct these activities, even if such use results in the incidental take of individual California red-legged frogs, California tiger salamanders, and Xxxxx'x blue butterflies covered under this Agreement and as authorized in the Permit. The take prohibitions in section 9 of the Act generally do not apply to listed plant species on non-Federal properties. The take prohibitions in section 9 of the Act specifically apply to listed fish or wildlife species; these take prohibitions do not apply to listed plants. The Act does provide protection of listed plants by: prohibiting the removal and reduction to possession of listed plants from areas under Federal jurisdiction; prohibiting the malicious damage or destruction of listed plants on areas under Federal jurisdiction; and prohibiting the removal, cutting, digging up, damaging, or destroying any listed plant on any other areas in k...

Although unlikely, such damage could occur to the infrastructure needed to make Reservoir Releases. If such damage were to occur prior to or during the Reservoir Releases, flows on the Enrolled Property could diminish unexpectedly and leave individual Covered Species stranded in isolated pools subjected to predation or bea...
