OSM-76 30-day FR Notice

Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 73 / Tuesday, April 16, 2013 / Notices
Lake, extremely poor water quality,
which occurs periodically throughout
the summer, negatively impacts adult
survival rates, and although the specific
causes are currently unknown, juvenile
survival is also low in these
populations. The last time a substantial
group of juveniles joined the adult
populations in Upper Klamath Lake was
during the late 1990s (Janney et al. 2008,
pp. 1820–1823). For both species, these
factors resulted in abundances of
spawning individuals in 2007 in Upper
Klamath Lake that were roughly 40 to 70
percent of their 2001 levels.
Furthermore, entrainment of larvae and
small juveniles through diversion
structures continues to drain significant
numbers of individuals from productive
populations into extremely poor
habitats, from which return is unlikely.
Clear Lake Reservoir has a single
spawning tributary with poor
connectivity when reservoir levels are
low and limited passage for spawning
migrants when flows are low, making
these populations very vulnerable to
drought. Morphological and molecular
genetics research indicate that
hybridization occurs between shortnose
sucker and Klamath largescale suckers
throughout the range of shortnose
sucker. However, further studies are
needed to determine the extent and
causes of hybridization.

Recovery Plan Objectives and Criteria
The purpose of a recovery plan is to
provide a framework for the recovery of
species so that protection under the Act
is no longer necessary. A recovery plan
includes scientific information about
the species and provides criteria that
enable us to gauge whether downlisting
or delisting the species is warranted.
Furthermore, recovery plans help guide
our recovery efforts by describing
actions we consider necessary for each
species’ conservation and by estimating
time and costs for implementing needed
recovery measures.
The revised recovery plan contains
the following objectives for recovery,
which we believe will promote healthy,
stable populations of these species:
1. Restore or enhance spawning and
nursery habitat in Upper Klamath Lake
and Clear Lake Reservoir systems;
2. Reduce negative impacts of poor
water quality;
3. Clarify and reduce the effects of
non-native organisms on all life stages;
4. Reduce the loss of individuals to
entrainment;
5. Establish a redundancy and
resiliency enhancement program;
6. Maintain or increase larval
production;

7. Increase juvenile survival and
recruitment to spawning populations;
and
8. Protect existing and increase the
number of recurring, successful
spawning populations.
As these species meet reclassification
and recovery criteria, we review each
species’ status and consider each
species for reclassification on or
removal from the Federal List of
Endangered and Threatened Wildlife
and Plants.
Authority
We developed our recovery plan
under the authority of section 4(f) of the
Act, 16 U.S.C. 1533(f). We publish this
notice under section 4(f) Endangered
Species Act of 1973, as amended (16
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).
