Endangered Species List for Proposed Enrico Fermi, Unit 2, License Renewal

Dear Ms. Moser:

This email is to confirm your list of federally endangered and threatened species for your proposed project in Monroe County, Michigan.

Your list should also include the bald eagle, as they are documented to nest in and near the project area. Although no longer protected under the Endangered Species Act, bald eagles, along with their foraging and winter roosting habitat, remain protected pursuant to the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGEPA) and Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA). Disturbance of these birds should be minimized and any resulting take must be permitted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service). The National Bald Eagle Management Guidelines offer guidance on minimizing any disturbance that may be caused by project activities near eagle nests.

Limited permits to disturb nesting eagles and, in some cases, remove nest trees are available from the Service. Applicants must meet the permit requirements as specified in the BGEPA and the resulting disturbance or take must be compatible with the ongoing preservation of the species, as determined by the Service. For more information on eagle protections, permit requirements, and to view the Bald Eagle Management Guidelines, please visit http://www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/baldeagle.htm. For technical assistance with assessing your projects impacts on bald eagles or applying for a permit, please contact Mr. Chris Mensing of this office at 517-351-8316.

Thank you.
