| 2012-6221 | Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Expanding Incentives for Voluntary Conservation Actions Under the Endangered Species Act | Proposed Rule | We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), are considering proposals to amend the regulations that implement parts of the Endangered Species Act. By this notice, we are inviting public comment to help us identify potential changes to our regulations that would create incentives for landowners and others to take voluntary conservation actions to benefit species that may be likely to become threatened or endangered species. In particular, we seek comment on whether and how the Service can assure those who take such voluntary actions that the benefits of such voluntary conservation actions will be recognized as offsetting the adverse effects of activities carried out after listing by that landowner or others. This practice sometimes referred to as "advance mitigation" or "pre-listing mitigation," is intended to encourage early conservation efforts that could reduce or eliminate the need to list species as endangered or threatened. | 2012-03-15 | 2012 | 3 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2012/03/15/2012-6221/endangered-and-threatened-wildlife-and-plants-expanding-incentives-for-voluntary-conservation | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2012-03-15/pdf/2012-6221.pdf | Interior Department; Fish and Wildlife Service | 253,197 | We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), are considering proposals to amend the regulations that implement parts of the Endangered Species Act.
