US Fish and Wildlife Service Proposes Critical Habitat Designation for Hawaiian Insular False Killer Whales

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is proposing to designate critical habitat for the Main Hawaiian Islands insular false killer whale distinct population segment, covering waters from 45m to 3200m depth around the islands, in accordance with the Endangered Species Act (ESA). The proposal excludes certain areas due to economic and national security concerns, including military training ranges and offshore energy facilities.
