| Private landowners,
corporations, state or local governments, or other non-Federal landowners
who wish to conduct activities on their land that might incidentally harm
(or "take") Preble's meadow jumping mouse must first obtain an incidental
take permit from the Service. To obtain a permit, the applicant must
develop a Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP), designed to ensure there is
adequate minimizing and mitigating of the effects the proposed activity
might have to PMJM or PMJM habitat. This process allows development to
proceed legally that would otherwise result in the illegal tale of PMJM,
while promoting PMJM conservation on private (non-Federal) lands. In
general, HCPs are required by the Service when permanent or temporary
disturbance to habitat occurs within 300 feet of 100 year floodplain of any
drainages or sub drainages in the PMJM range. HCPs for PMJM have been
approved by the Service for private residences, large-scale commercial and
residential developments, natural resource management, and multiple-use
trails. Currently the Service is working with Front Range county
planning and open space departments to develop regional HCPs which would
address multiple planning objectives. APPROVED HCPs AND ISSUED INCIDENTAL TAKE PERMITS (TO DATE): |
