Notice is hereby given that on December 20, 1994, as authorized by
the provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) (16 U.S.C.

authorized by the ESA and the NMFS regulations governing listed fish
and wildlife permits (50 CFR parts 217-222).

the subject of the extension; (3) is consistent with the purposes and
policies set forth in section 2 of the ESA. This extension was also
issued in accordance with and is subject to parts 217-222 of Title 50
CFR, the NMFS regulations governing listed species permits.
