SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Service has received an incidental take
permit (ITP) application from the
MidAmerican Energy Company in
accordance with the requirements of the
Endangered Species Act, as amended
(ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). The
applicant has prepared a draft habitat
conservation plan (HCP) in support of
the ITP application and is seeking
authorization for take of the federally
endangered Indiana bat, federally
threatened northern long-eared bat, and
federally protected bald eagle, in
addition to the little brown bat and
tricolored bat. Little brown bat and
tricolored bat are not federally
protected, but they are currently being
evaluated for protection under ESA. The
applicant has chosen to include these as
covered species, and they will be treated
as if they were ESA listed. The ITP, if
issued, would authorize incidental take
of these species that may occur as a
result of the operation of wind facilities
in 22 Iowa counties over a 30-year
permit term. The draft HCP describes
how impacts to the covered species will
be minimized and mitigated. The draft
HCP also describes the covered species’
life history and ecology, biological goals
