Draft Environmental Assessment and Proposed Single-Species Habitat Conservation Plan for the Proposed Shiloh IV Wind Plant Project, Solano County, CA

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, have prepared a draft environmental assessment (EA) under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for the Proposed Shiloh IV Wind Plant Project in response to an application from enXco (applicant) for a 36-year incidental take permit for one species under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). The application addresses the potential for "take" of one federally listed animal, the Central California Distinct Population Segment of the California tiger salamander. The applicant would implement a conservation program to minimize and mitigate the project activities, as described in the applicant's habitat conservation plan (plan). We request data, comments, new information or suggestions from the public, other concerned governmental agencies, the scientific community, Tribes, industry, or any other interested party on the applicant's permit application, plan, and the associated EA.
