National Environmental Policy Act Compliance. The Service must analyze the impacts of its participation in this SHA/CCAA Agreement as required by NEPA (42 U.S.C. 4332). Any federal agency undertaking a major federal action that is likely to affect the human environment must conduct an environmental review pursuant to NEPA. Issuance of the Service of Enhancement of Survival Permits under the ESA Section 10(a)(1)(A) is a federal action subject to NEPA.
National Environmental Policy Act Compliance. This Conservation Agreement is being developed for planning purposes. Before any on-the- ground actions can occur on federally managed lands, a determination must be made whether or not the conservation actions are consistent with the applicable agency’s land use or land management plan and whether or not additional NEPA analysis is required. If conservation actions are determined not to be consistent with a land management plan, then these actions must be incorporated into the applicable agency’s land use or land management plan through an amendment or maintenance process before they can be implemented. Actions on lands administered by the State or private lands may not be subject to NEPA analysis.
National Environmental Policy Act Compliance. The Arizona Game and Fish Department will comply with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969.

Further, the Department will comply with the objectives of NEPA on any other project or program that may have an effect on the environment.

National Environmental Policy Act Compliance. The development of the draft SHA and the proposed issuance of an enhancement of survival permit is a Federal action that triggers the need for compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) (NEPA). We have prepared a draft EA to analyze the impacts of permit issuance and implementation of the SHA on the human environment in comparison to the no-action alternative. Public Comments You may submit your comments and materials by one of the methods listed in the ADDRESSES section. We request data, new information, or suggestions from the public, other concerned governmental agencies, Tribes, the scientific community, industry, or any other interested party on our proposed Federal action. In particular, we request information and comments regarding the following issues:
National Environmental Policy Act Compliance. The development of the draft SHA and the proposed issuance of an enhancement of survival permit are Federal actions that trigger the need for compliance with the NEPA (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.). We have prepared a draft EAS to analyze the impacts of permit issuance and implementation of the SHA on the human environment in comparison to the no-action alternative. We have made a preliminary determination that issuing the permit and implementing the SHA would have minor or negligible impacts to the environment, and thus the proposed SHA and permit actions are eligible for categorical exclusion under NEPA. The basis for our preliminary determination is contained in the EAS, which is available for public review (see ADDRESSES). Next Steps We will evaluate the permit application, associated documents, and comments we receive to determine whether the permit application meets the requirements of the ESA, NEPA, and their implementing regulations. If we determine that all requirements are met, we will sign the proposed SHA and issue a permit under section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA to the applicant. We will not make our final decision on the permit application until after the end of the public comment period, and we will fully consider all comments we receive during the comment period. Public Availability of Comments Written comments we receive become part of the public record associated with this action. Before including your address, phone number, email address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be aware that the entire comment, including your personal identifying information, may be made available at any time. While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.
National Environmental Policy Act Compliance. The issuance of a section 10(a)(1)(A) permit is a Federal action subject to NEPA compliance, including the Council on Environmental Quality regulations for implementing the procedural provisions of NEPA (40 CFR 1500–1508; 516 DM 6.2B). The Service’s decision on whether to enter into the CCAA, CCA and CA, so that the Conservation Strategy can be implemented on non-Federal and Federal lands subject to these agreements, is also a Federal action subject to NEPA compliance. The Association’s draft CCAA and related application for the Enhancement of Survival permit , as well as the companion CCA and CA it proposes, are not eligible for categorical exclusion under NEPA. We have prepared a draft EA to further analyze the direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts of the proposed CCAA and permit, the CCA and the CA, including their proposed implementation of the Conservation Strategy, on the quality of the human environment and other natural resources. In compliance with NEPA, we analyzed the potential impacts of this proposed action and a reasonable range of alternatives in the draft EA. Based on these analyses and any new information resulting from public comment on the proposed action, we will determine if issuance of the permit and approval of the underlying CCAA and related CCA and CA would cause any significant impacts to the human environment. After reviewing public comments, we will evaluate whether the proposed action and alternatives in the draft EA are adequate to support a finding of no significant impact under NEPA. We now make the draft EA available for public inspection online or in person at the Service offices listed in ADDRESSES. Public Comments You may submit your comments and materials by one of the methods listed in the ADDRESSES section. We request data, information, opinions, or suggestions from the public, other concerned governmental agencies, the scientific community, Tribes, industry, or any other interested party on our proposed permit action. We particularly seek comments on the following: (1) Biological information and relevant data concerning the Covered Species; (2) current or planned activities in the subject area and their possible impacts on the Covered Species; (3) identification of any other environmental issues that should be considered with regard to the proposed permit action; and (4) information regarding the adequacy of the draft CCAA pursuant to the requirements for permits at 50 CFR parts 13 and 17.
