Краткое содержание

The Woodlands Operating Company, L.P., has requested an amendment to the incidental take permit pursuant to Section 10(a) of the Endangered Species Act (Act) issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) on August 23, 2002 under permit number TE-048649. The permit authorizes incidental take of the threatened bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) as a result of the otherwise lawful development of the East Lake Area of The Woodlands, Montgomery County, Texas. The requested amendment would authorize incidental take at all nests built by the pair of bald eagles whose territory is on the East Lake Area of the Woodlands and that a 330 foot management zone be established around each active nest site.
