DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
Finding of No Significant Impact for an Incidental Take Permit
for the Construction of a Single Family Residence at Lot 37, Section 4,
Block D, Jester Point 2 Subdivision, Travis County, Texas
AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) has prepared an
Environmental Assessment for issuance of a Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit
for the incidental take of the Federally endangered golden-cheeked
warbler (Dendroica chrysoparia) during the construction and operation
of a single-family residence in Travis County, Texas.
Proposed Action
The proposed action is the issuance of a permit under Section
10(a)(1)(B) of the Endangered Species Act to authorize the incidental
take of the golden-cheeked warbler.
The Applicant plans to construct a single-family residence at Lot
37, Section 4, Block D, Jester Point 2 Subdivision. The proposed
development will comply with all local, State, and Federal
environmental regulations addressing environmental impacts associated
with this type of development. Details of the mitigation are provided
in the Lot 37, Section 4, Block D, Jester Point 2 Subdivision, Travis
County, Texas, Environmental Assessment/Habitat Conservation Plan.
Guarantees for implementation are provided in the Agreement. These
conservation plan actions ensure that the criteria established for
issuance of an incidental take permit will be fully satisfied.
Alternatives Considered
1. No action,
2. Proposed action,
3. Sale of this property and the purchase of another parcel to develop,
4. Alternative site design,
5. Wait for issuance of a regional Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit.
Determination
Based upon information contained in the Environmental Assessment/
Habitat Conservation Plan, the Service has determined that this action
is not a major Federal action which would significantly affect the
quality of the human environment within the meaning of Section
102(2)(c) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969.
Accordingly, the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement on
the proposed action is not warranted.
It is my decision to issue the Section 10(a)(1)(B) permit for the
construction and operation of the single-family residence at Lot 37,
Section 4, Block D, Jester Point 2 Subdivision, Travis County, Texas.
Lynn B. Starnes,
Acting Regional Director, Region 2, Albuquerque, New Mexico.
