Protective action worth supporting
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has received permit applications to conduct recovery activities for endangered species under the Endangered Species Act. These permits would allow activities like captive breeding and research that are intended to help endangered species survive and reproduce. Conservation professionals, tribal governments, and the public can submit comments before FWS decides whether to approve the permits.
In the agency’s own words
We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, have received applications for permits to conduct activities intended to enhance the propagation and survival of endangered species under the Endangered Species Act. We invite the public and local, State, Tribal, and Federal agencies to comment on these applications. Before issuing the requested permits, we will take into consideration any information that we receive during the public comment period.
Who signs it
The notice names no signer PLAN could read. PLAN names a decision-maker only when the document names one.
The ground
The window has closed, so there’s no watch to set on it here.
In court on this ground
This fight isn’t bound to a land unit in PLAN’s record yet, so there are no court cases to show for its ground.
Who holds the vote
PLAN’s record doesn’t tie a member of Congress to this fight yet. The scorecard grades the votes and bills that decide public lands; nothing joins a vote or a bill to this decision, so there’s no member to name here without guessing.
