Government-to-Government Relationship With Tribes In accordance with the Presidents memorandum of April 29, 1994, Government-to-Government Relations with Native American Tribal Governments 59 FR 22951, Executive Order 13175 Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments, and the Department of the Interior Manual at 512 DM 2, we readily acknowledge our responsibility to communicate meaningfully with recognized Native American Tribes on a government-to-government basis. We have evaluated the potential effects on federally recognized Tribes from these revisions to our regulations. We have determined that there are no potential effects to federally recognized Tribes, as the revisions to the regulations are intended to promote the usability of critical habitat designations and save taxpayer monies. We will continue to coordinate with Tribes as we promulgate critical habitat designations.

If the critical habitat map appears in . . .

Then . . .

1 A critical habitat designation in 17.95a, b, d, e, f, g, h, or i, or in 17.96a, and the designation does not state that the maps is for informational purposes only, or 2 A critical habitat designation in 17.99, or 3 A critical habitat designation published and effective after May 31, 2012, 4 A critical habitat designation that states that the maps is for informational purposes only, or 5 A critical habitat designation published and effective on or prior to May 31, 2012, that is set forth at 17.95c,
The map provided by the Secretary of the Interior, as clarified or refined by any textual language within the rule, constitutes the definition of the boundaries of a critical habitat. Each critical habitat area will be shown on a map, with more-detailed information discussed in the preamble of the rulemaking documents published in the Federal Register and made available from the lead field office of the Service responsible for such designation.
Each area will be referenced to the States, countyies, or other local government units within which all or part of the critical habitat is located. General descriptions of the location and boundaries of each area may be provided to clarify or refine what is included within the boundaries depicted on the map, or to explain the exclusion of sites e.g., paved roads, buildings within the mapped area. Unless otherwise indicated within the critical habitat descriptions, the names of the States and countyies are provided for informational purposes only and do not constitute the boundaries of the area.

The map provided by the Secretary of the Interior is for reference purposes to guide Federal agencies and other interested parties in locating the general boundaries of the critical habitat. The map does not, unless otherwise indicated, constitute the definition of the boundaries of a critical habitat. Critical habitats are described by reference to surveyable landmarks found on standard topographic maps of the area and to the States and countyies within which all or part of the critical habitat is located. Unless otherwise indicated within the critical habitat description, the State and countyies names are provided for informational purposes only.
