| 97-33217 | Designated Critical Habitat; Green and Hawksbill Sea Turtles | Proposed Rule | NMFS proposes to designate critical habitat pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) for the threatened green turtle (Chelonia mydas) to include waters extending seaward 3 nautical miles (nm) [5.6 kilometers(km)] from the mean high water line of Culebra Island, Puerto Rico (see Figure 1), and for the endangered hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) to include waters extending seaward 3 nm (5.6 km) from the mean high water line of Mona and Monito Islands, Puerto Rico (see Figure 2). The designation of critical habitat provides explicit notice to Federal agencies and to the public that these areas and features are vital to the conservation of the species. | 1997-12-19 | 1997 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1997/12/19/97-33217/designated-critical-habitat-green-and-hawksbill-sea-turtles | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1997-12-19/pdf/97-33217.pdf | Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration | 54,361 | NMFS proposes to designate critical habitat pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) for the threatened green turtle (Chelonia mydas) to include waters extending seaward 3 nautical miles (nm) [5.6 kilometers(km)] from the mean high water... |
