Pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as amended (NEPA), we, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) intend to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) regarding an expected application from the Simpson Timber Company, California Timberlands (Simpson) for an incidental take permit for take of threatened salmonid species and an enhancement of survival permit for coverage of an unlisted fish species and unlisted amphibian species, in accordance with section 10(a) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA). As required by the ESA, Simpson is preparing a Habitat Conservation Plan/Candidate Conservation Agreement (Plan/Agreement) and applications for an incidental take permit and an enhancement of survival permit (Permits) related to forest management and timber operations on a portion of its lands in Del Norte and Humboldt Counties, California. Simpson expects to apply for an incidental take permit pursuant to section 10(a)(1)(B) of the ESA from NMFS for the coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and chinook salmon (O. tshawytscha), and may also seek coverage for one currently unlisted species, coastal steelhead (O. mykiss irideus) under the incidental take permit should this species be listed in the future. Simpson is also preparing an application for an enhancement of survival permit under the Candidate Conservation Agreement with Assurances Policy of the FWS for the coastal cutthroat trout (O. clarki clarki), southern torrent salamander (Rhyacotriton variegatus) and tailed frog (Ascaphus truei). We are furnishing this notice in order to advise other agencies and the public of our intentions and to announce the initiation of a public scoping period during which other agencies and the public are invited to provide written comments on the scope of issues to be included in the EIS.
