NOAA DID announce the final critical habitat rule today. The notices,
background information, maps, etc., is at following website:
http://www.nwr.noaa.gov/1salmon/salmesa/crithab/CHsite.htm
As expected, it's similar to the proposal in unoccupied habitat and
terrestrial habitat is left unprotected, while economics, national
security (military lands) and tribal lands are excluded - to the tune of
about 2000 miles. The awful other exclusions are not in this rule with
the exception of 3 HCPs. But they make it very clear they are still
considering those exclusions.
