Layer: NMFS 4(d) Rule (ID: 7)

Name: NMFS 4(d) Rule

Display Field: RULES

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>In June 2000, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) adopted a rule prohibiting the "take" of 14 groups of salmon and steelhead listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). NMFS adopted the take rule under section 4(d) of the ESA. This rule prohibits anyone from taking a listed salmon or steelhead, except in cases where the take is associated with an approved program. The 4(d) rule approves some specific existing state and local programs, and creates a means for NMFS to approve additional programs if they meet certain standards set out in the rule.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>State and local governments, tribes and others throughout the Northwest have stepped forward and assumed leadership roles in saving these species. Efforts include the Oregon Plan for Salmon and Watersheds, the State of Washington's Extinction is Not an Option Plan, Metro's Functional Plan, the Puget Sound Tri-County Initiative, the Lower Columbia Fish Recovery Board, the Eugene, Oregon-area Metro ESA Coordinating Team, and the Willamette Restoration Initiative. NMFS believes it is these local efforts that will ultimately save the salmon. A central goal of this 4(d) rule is to encourage such state and local efforts by providing the means for NMFS to approve local efforts and limit liability under the ESA.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
