United States as Threatened or Endangered With Critical Habitat;
Correction
AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.
ACTION: Notice of 90-day petition finding; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: On Tuesday, August 18, 2009, we, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, announced a 90-day finding on 38 species from a petition to
list 206 species in the mountain-prairie region of the United States as
threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (Act). In that notice, we used an incorrect docket number, and
asked commenters to refer to this docket number in their comments. The
correct docket number is [FWS-R6-ES-2008-0131]. However, comments we
received under the incorrect docket number will be routed to the
correct docket. If you already submitted a comment, even with the
incorrect docket number, you need not resubmit it.
DATES: To allow us adequate time to conduct a status review, we request
that we receive information on or before October 19, 2009.
ADDRESSES: You may submit information by one of the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On Tuesday, August 18, 2009, we announced a
90-day finding on 38 species from a petition we received to list 206
species in the mountain-prairie region of the United States as
threatened or endangered under the Act (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) (74 FR
41649). For 9 of the 38 species, we found that the petition did not
present substantial information indicating that listing may be
warranted. For 29 of the 38 species, we found that the petition does
present substantial scientific or commercial information indicating
that listing may be warranted. Therefore, with the publication of the
August 18, 2009, notice, we initiated a status review of the 29 species
to determine if listing is warranted. To ensure that the review is
comprehensive, we requested scientific and commercial information
regarding these 29 species, and opened a comment period that is still
open at this time (see DATES). For more information about the species,
background, and our finding, see our original notice at 74 FR 41649.

Federal Register Liaison.
