## Abstract

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), are reclassifying the federally endangered Oregon chub (Oregonichthys crameri) to threatened status under the authority of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). This decision is based on a thorough review of the best available scientific and commercial data, which indicate that the species' status has improved to the point that the Oregon chub is not currently in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range.
