SPECIES RECOVERY GOALS/PLANS Sample Clauses

SPECIES RECOVERY GOALS/PLANS. ‌ The overall goal for recovery of the four endangered fishes is to achieve naturally self- sustaining populations and to protect the habitat on which those populations depend. Recovery plans for these species have been developed under Section 4(f) of the Endangered Species Act (ESA; U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1990a, 1990b, 1991, 1998), and the final rule determining critical habitat was published in the Federal Register on March 21, 1994 (59 FR 13374; Appendix). Once critical habitat was designated (see map on next page), the RIPRAP was reviewed by the Service and modified in coordination with the Management Committee. Final recovery goals for the four endangered fish, which amend and supplement the former recovery plans, were approved in August 2002 (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 2002a, 2002b, 2002c, 2002d). The recovery goals describe what is necessary for downlisting and delisting each of the species by identifying site-specific management actions/tasks necessary to minimize or remove threats; establishing objective, measurable criteria that consider demographic and genetic needs for self-sustaining, viable populations; and providing estimates of the time to achieve recovery. In a lawsuit by Grand Canyon Trust over the humpback chub recovery goals, U.S. District Court 9th Circuit ruled that review of the substance of 1Prior to 2009, the Service concluded that the impacts associated with any amount of water depletion in the Upper Colorado River resulted in a Section 7 jeopardy opinion.

Service recovery plans is inappropriate under the Administrative Procedure Act and the ESA, but ordered the goals vacated until time and cost estimates are updated. The Service is in the process of reviewing and updating the species recovery plans. In the context of the recovery goals/plans, recovery of humpback chub, bonytail, and razorback sucker will occur in the Upper and Lower basins (each basin is treated as a “recovery unit”), with separate recovery criteria developed for each of the two recovery units. Based on the Colorado pikeminnow recovery plan, recovery of Colorado pikeminnow will occur in the Upper Colorado River Basin, including the San Xxxx River subbasin.
