Abstract

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), in accordance with the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (Act), as amended, are amending the List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife (List) by updating the entries for five species of threatened Caribbean corals (Orbicella annularis, O. faveolata, O. franksi, Dendrogyra cylindrus, and Mycetophyllia ferox) to reflect the designation of critical habitat for these species. We are also amending the List by adding three nonessential experimental populations of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha): Upper Yuba River Central Valley spring-run, McCloud and Upper Sacramento Rivers Sacramento River winter-run, and Central Valley spring-run. These amendments are based on previously published determinations by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce, which has jurisdiction for these species.
