Riepilogo

The Fish and Wildlife Service gives notice that the pubilc comment period on the environmental assessment/habitat conservation plan for the Pineda Crossing/Windover Farms projects (Applicant) application for an incidental take permit pursuant to Section 10(a) of the Endangered Species Act (Act) is being extended. The Applicant has been assigned permit number PRT-808474. The original 30-day comment period was to end on/about December 15, 1995 (FR 60:57247-48). In the intervening period, the Fish and Wildlife Service was forced to cease operations due to the lapse in Congressional appropriations during the period of November 14 through 19. The Fish and Wildlife Service was unable to expeditiously respond to the public requesting the documentation announced in the original Federal Register notice. The Fish and Wildlife Service is therefore extending the formal public comment period to allow opportunity for public review and submittal of comments.
