Description:

"This final Environmental Assessment (EA) is for NMFS's issuance of section 10 of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) permits to WDFW for take due to scientific research and fisheries management of ESA-listed rockfish and other listed fish within the Puget Sound/Georgia Basin. NMFS has conducted this environmental review under the National Environmental Policy Act in support of evaluating WDFW's permit applications under section 10 of the ESA. The EA evaluates the environmental consequences of alternative actions for issuing incidental take permits to WDFW for scientific research and fisheries management in the Puget Sound/Georgia Basin. The analysis of alternatives and consequences will inform NMFS' decision regarding issuance of these section 10 permits. The covered species for these permits would include the Puget Sound/Georgia Basin DPSs of threatened yelloweye rockfish, canary rockfish, and endangered bocaccio. Additional covered species would include the threatened Evolutionarily Significant Units of Puget Sound Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), Puget Sound summer chum salmon (O. keta) and, the threatened DPS of Puget Sound steelhead (O. omykiss), and the threatened DPSs of southern green sturgeon (Acipenser medirostris) and southern eulachon (Thaleichthys pacificus)"--Executive Summary (page ES-1).
