Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Proposed Determination of Critical Habitat for the Huachuca Water Umbel, a Plant

요약

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), propose designation of critical habitat pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act), for Lilaeopsis schaffneriana ssp. recurva, the Huachuca water umbel, a plant. Proposed critical habitat includes a total of 83.9 kilometers (52.1 miles) of streams or rivers in Cochise and Santa Cruz counties, Arizona. If this proposal is made final, section 7 of the Act would prohibit destruction or adverse modification of critical habitat by any activity funded, authorized, or carried out by any Federal agency. Section 4 of the Act requires us to consider economic and other impacts of specifying any particular area as critical habitat. We solicit data and comments from the public on all aspects of this proposal, including data on the economic and other impacts of the designation. We may revise this proposal to incorporate or address new information received during the comment period.
