Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Proposed Designation of Critical Habitat for Allium munzii (Munz's onion)

Riepilogo

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), propose to designate critical habitat for the federally endangered Allium munzii (Munz's onion) pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). We propose to designate 227 acres (ac) (92 hectares (ha)) of critical habitat of Federal land in western Riverside County, California. We excluded 1,068 ac (433 ha) from proposed critical habitat within approved habitat conservation plans (HCPs) and the draft Western Riverside Multiple Species HCP (MSHCP), Riverside County, California. We hereby solicit data and comments from the public on all aspects of this proposal, including data on economic and other impacts of the designation. We may revise this proposal prior to final designation to incorporate or address new information received during public comment periods.
