Baldwin County builders seek ITPs

Three builders — New Era Development, LLC; Daniel Kruse; and Tamyara Gryner — submitted incidental take permit (ITP) applications under the Alabama beach mouse (ABM) general conservation plan to allow taking the federally listed ABM incidental to construction in Baldwin County, Alabama. The Service certified the applications as statutorily complete and that each includes a habitat conservation plan (HCP) to enroll in the GCP; the notice says this balances development with saving the mouse without costing extra money right now.

Public comment invited on ITPs and HCPs

The Fish and Wildlife Service is requesting public comment on the three ITP applications, the applicants' proposed habitat conservation plans (HCPs), and the Service's preliminary determination that each proposed permitting action qualifies under the Alabama beach mouse general conservation plan. The public can submit comments now on those applications and determinations.
