Published 60-day Notice

16234

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 57 / Friday, March 26, 2021 / Notices

We, the
Fish and Wildlife Service, announce
receipt of an application from EGR East,
LLC (applicant) for an incidental take
permit (ITP) under the Endangered
Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA;
16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). The applicant
requests the ITP to take the federally
listed sand skink (Neoseps reynoldsi)
and blue-tailed mole skink (Eumeces
egregious lividus) (skinks) incidental to
the construction of a residential
development in Osceola County,
Florida. We request public comment on
the application, which includes the
applicant’s habitat conservation plan
(HCP), and on the Service’s preliminary
determination that this HCP qualifies as
‘‘low-effect,’’ categorically excluded
under the National Environmental
Policy Act (NEPA; 42 U.S.C. 4231 et
seq.). To make this determination, we
used our environmental action
statement and low-effect screening form,
both of which are also available for
public review.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Project
The applicant requests a 10-year ITP
to take skinks through the conversion of
approximately 5.83 acres of occupied
skink foraging and sheltering habitat
incidental to the construction of a
residential development on a 39-acre
parcel in Sections 19 and 30, Township
25 South, Range 27 East, Osceola
County, Florida. The applicant proposes
to mitigate for take of the skinks by
purchasing credits equivalent to 11.66
acres of skink-occupied habitat from a
Service-approved conservation bank.
The Service would require the applicant
to purchase the credits prior to engaging
in any phase of the project.

Public Availability of Comments
Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, be aware that your entire
comment, including your personal
identifying information, may be made
available to the public. While you may
request that we withhold your personal
identifying information, we cannot
guarantee that we will be able to do so.
Our Preliminary Determination
The Service has made a preliminary
determination that the applicant’s
project, including the construction of
single-family homes, paved roads, green
areas, storm water ponds, and
associated infrastructure (e.g., electric,
water, and sewer lines) would
individually and cumulatively have a
minor or negligible effect on the skinks
and the environment. Therefore, we
have preliminarily concluded that the

VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 253001

ITP for this project would qualify for
categorical exclusion and the HCP
would be low effect under our NEPA
regulations at 43 CFR 46.205 and
46.210. A low-effect HCP is one that
would result in (1) minor or negligible
effects on federally listed, proposed, and
candidate species and their habitats; (2)
minor or negligible effects on other
environmental values or resources; and
(3) impacts that, when considered
together with the impacts of other past,
present, and reasonable foreseeable
similarly situated projects, would not
result in significant cumulative effects
to environmental values or resources
over time.
Next Steps
The Service will evaluate the
application and the comments to
determine whether to issue the
requested permit. We will also conduct
an intra-Service consultation pursuant
to section 7 of the ESA to evaluate the
effects of the proposed take. After
considering the preceding findings, we
will determine whether the permit
issuance criteria of section 10(a)(1)(B) of
the ESA have been met. If met, the
Service will issue ITP number
PER0002675 to EGR East, LLC for
incidental take of skinks.
Authority
The Service provides this notice
under section 10(c) of the ESA (16
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) and its
implementing regulations (50 CFR
17.32) and NEPA (42 U.S.C. 4321 et
seq.) and its implementing regulations
(40 CFR 1506.6 and 43 CFR 46.305).
