Designation of Critical Habitat for the Sharpnose Shiner and Smalleye Shiner
Summary
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service proposes to designate critical habitat for the sharpnose shiner and smalleye shiner under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended, covering approximately 1,002 river kilometers in Texas. The proposed rule would extend protections to these species' critical habitat if finalized.
