The federal Endangered Species Act of 1973 (FESA) directs federal agencies, in consultation with the Secretary of the Interior or the Secretary of Commerce, as appropriate, to carry out conservation programs for endangered species listed under FESA. FESA generally prohibits activities affecting these threatened and endangered species unless authorized by a permit from the United States Fish and Wildlife Service or the National Marine Fisheries Service, as appropriate. FESA provides for enhancement of survival permits to allow actions necessary for the establishment and maintenance of experimental populations designated pursuant to that act. The California Endangered Species Act (CESA) prohibits the taking of an endangered or threatened species, except as specified. The Department of Fish and Game may authorize the take of listed species if the take is incidental to an otherwise lawful activity and the impacts are minimized and fully mitigated. Existing law provides that if any person obtains from the Secretary of the Interior or the Secretary of Commerce an incidental take statement or incidental take permit pursuant to FESA that authorizes the taking of an endangered species or threatened species listed pursuant to FESA, and that is an endangered species, threatened species, or candidate species pursuant to CESA, no further authorization or approval is necessary under CESA for that person to take the endangered species, threatened species, or candidate species identified in, and in accordance with, the incidental take statement or incidental take permit, if that person notifies the Director of Fish and Game, as specified, and the director determines that the statement or permit is consistent with CESA. This bill would provide that a person who obtains a federal enhancement of survival permit that authorizes the take of spring run Chinook salmon, in order to establish or maintain an experimental population in the San Joaquin River pursuant to FESA and the federal San Joaquin River Restoration Settlement Act, requires no further authorization or approval under CESA for that person to take that species as identified in, and in accordance with, the enhancement of survival permit, if specified requirements are met. These provisions would remain in effect only until the effective date of an amendment to FESA that alters the requirements for issuing an enhancement of survival permit. The bill would authorize the incidental take of spring run Chinook salmon in the San Joaquin River that are designated as an experimental population under FESA, without the need for further authorization or approval under CESA, if specified requirements are met.
