Kempthorne, Dirk [R-ID] | ID | R | K000088 | 1 | Consultation Clarification Act - Provides that whenever the listing of a species as threatened or endangered or procedures or decisions relating to such listing require consultation with the Secretary of the Interior under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 on a resource management plan, any action consistent with the plan may be undertaken on lands prior to the completion of the consultation if the land management agency responsible for the action determines the action is: (1) not likely to affect the species; (2) not likely to adversely affect the species and the Secretary or the Secretary of Commerce, as appropriate, concurs; or (3) likely to adversely affect the species and the appropriate Secretary issues a biological opinion which finds that the action is not likely to jeopardize the species or result in destruction or adverse modification of its critical habitat or is unlikely to jeopardize such species or result in habitat destruction or modification and the land management agency agrees to a reasonable alternative to such action. (Current law requires Federal agencies to consult with the Secretary to insure that actions are not likely to jeopardize any endangered or threatened species or result in habitat destruction or modification.) | 2025-08-21T20:16:22Z | https://www.congress.gov/bill/104th-congress/senate-bill/455 |
