EH-41 Environmental Law Summary: Endangered Species Act and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act Purpose and Organization The Endangered Species Act (ESA) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (FWCA) are major federal statutes designed to protect plant and animal resources from adverse effects due to development projects. Both acts require consultation with wildlife authorities before committing resources to certain types of projects. Please click here to access an Information Brief on the ESA. Endangered Species Act The ESA was originally passed in 1973. It provides for the designation and protection of invertebrates, wildlife, fish, and plant species that are in danger of becoming extinct and conserves the ecosystems on which such species depend. The Act defines an endangered species as any species that is in danger of becoming extinct throughout all or a significant portion of its range. The Act excludes recognized insect pests from this definition. A threatened species is one that is likely to become endangered in the foreseeable future. The Act makes it illegal for any individual to kill, collect, remove, harass, import, or export an endangered or threatened species without a permit from the Secretary of the Department of the Interior (DOI). DOI's Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) performs most administrative and regulatory actions under the Act. The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) in the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) deals with actions affecting marine species.

Agents of Biotic Change Threatened and Endangered Species A number of once common native plant and animal species on the Colorado Plateau have become increasingly rare, and some, particularly native freshwater fishes , have become extinct. Habitat destruction, degradation, and fragmentation, sometimes in combination with hunting and poisoning, has led to significant decreases in the overall populations of a number of species. The federal government has classified a few of these as endangered, meaning that the species is in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range. Others, classified as threatened, may reach endangered status if habitats continue to be degraded and populations continue to fall. click here .

Encourage creative use of mitigation banking and tradable development rights as long as there is a net gain for species protection through habitat purchase, restoration of degraded lands or similar mechanisms. Change eligibility criteria for Conservation Reserve Program monies under the farm bill to prioritize payment for properties with habitat for listed and candidate species. Alter the tax code to reward private landowners for responsible stewardship and for preserving large tracts of land from generation to generation.

Homework Helper Jumpstart Science Topics Learning Galleries Today is JumpStart - Life Science Endangered Species* Threatened and Endangered Animals and Plants Endangered Florida panther Introduction: Before a plant or animal species can receive protection under the Endangered Species Act, it must first be placed on the Federal list of endangered and hreatened wildlife and plants. Our listing program follows a strict legal process to determine whether to list a species, depending on the degree of threat it faces. The Endangered Species Act The Fish and Wildlife Service, in the Department of the Interior, and the National Marine Fisheries Service, in the Department of Commerce, share responsibility for administration of the Endangered Species Act. History of The Act Coastal California gnatcatcher Arnold Small/USFWS Congress passed the Endangered Species Preservation Act in 1966. This law allowed listing of only native animal species as endangered and provided limited means for the protection of species so listed. The Departments of Interior, Agriculture, and Defense were to seek to protect listed species, and insofar as consistent with their primary purposes, preserve the habitats of such species. Land acquisition for protection of endangered species was also authorized. The Endangered Species Conservation Act of 1969 was passed to provide additional protection to species in danger of "worldwide extinction". Import of such species was prohibited, as was their subsequent sale within the U.S. This Act called for an international ministerial meeting to adopt a convention on the conservation of endangered species.

Home What's New Newsroom ... Merchandise How Did Endangered Species Protection Get Started? In 1969, Congress passed the Endangered Species Conservation Act to provide increased protection for threatened species and extended protection to a wider variety of wildlife. The movement was gathering momentum. Rescuing endangered species had become as important to legislators as tax reform. Nathaniel P. Reed, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Assistant Secretary eloquently captured the mood in a 1971 speech, when he reported, "I can assure you that I am fully committed to the task of insuring that the United States will assume and maintain a leadership role in preventing the irretrievable loss of any species. We are not so naive as to believe that we can halt evolution we know, despite our best efforts, that some species will slip over the brink into oblivion. But we are dedicated to the belief that America has matured to the point that we are no longer willing to sacrifice the end product of eons of evolution a species or subspecies of wildlife on the alter of the god called Progress without putting up one darned good fight!" The Endangered Species Act of 1973 furthered the cause of endangered species management. Far more comprehensive than the 1969 legislation, the new act reached all animals, whereas the earlier act addressed only vertebrates, molluscs and crustaceans. It established authority for protection before the danger of extinction becomes grave. It addressed all animal populations, whereas the 1969 Act recognized no category below subspecies. The 1973 Act provided for the listing and conservation of plants, which was absent from previous legislation.

Along with other Canadian and Provincial jurisdictions, Saskatchewan agreed to "establish complementary legislation and programs that provide for effective protection of species at risk". Saskatchewan has made significant progress towards implementing the Accord via their endangered species provisions in the Wildlife Act (proclaimed in 1997 and amended in 1998 and 2000). The Act applies to all wild organisms and specifically allows for regulations "prescribing species of wildlife to be protected and respecting the management and control of such wildlife and any products thereof". The Act allows the Minister to list species as endangered, extirpated, threatened or vulnerable. The Minister may establish and consult an advisory committee regarding designations, but the
