The Upper Columbia Fish and Wildlife Office is providing the lists of endangered, threatened, proposed, and candidate species, by county, for its geographic area of responsibility. This area includes the six northern counties in Idaho and the 20 counties in Washington east of the Cascade crest. Service biologists have used the best scientific information available to formulate this list, which is updated quarterly.
The purpose of a species list is to help provide information on endangered and threatened species that may be present in a project area. The species list fulfills the Service’s requirement, under section 7(c) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act) (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), to provide a list of endangered and threatened species upon request for federal actions and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) compliance.
Federal agency responsibilities under section 7 of the Act, including an outline of the section 7 consultation process and information needed in a biological assessment, may be found at the following link: http://endangered.fws.gov/consultations/index.html. Non-Federal entities who believe that their projects or activities may affect listed species may contact the Service regarding the potential need for a section 10 permit, under the Act.
We do not list species listed by NOAA Fisheries on our lists. For information regarding species listed by NOAA Fisheries, please visit the following website
