Our Preliminary Determination
Fish and Wildlife Service
The Service has made a preliminary determination that the applicants project, including land clearing, infrastructure building, landscaping, and the proposed mitigation measures, would individually and cumulatively have a minor or negligible effect on sand skinks and the environment. Therefore, we have preliminarily concluded that the ITP for this project would qualify for categorical exclusion and the HCP is low effect under our NEPA regulations at 43 CFR 46.205 and 46.210. A loweffect HCP is one that would result in 1 minor or negligible effects on federally listed, proposed, and candidate species and their habitats; 2
minor or negligible effects on other environmental values or resources; and 3 impacts that, when considered together with the impacts of other past, present, and reasonably foreseeable similarly situated projects, would not over time result in significant cumulative effects to environmental values or resources.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Why do we conduct 5-year reviews and species status assessments?
Under the ESA, we maintain Lists of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants which we collectively refer to as the List in title 50 of the Code of Federal Regulations at 50 CFR 17.11h for wildlife and 50 CFR 17.12h for plants. Listed wildlife and plants can also be found at http ecos.fws.gov/

listedPlants.jsp, respectively. Section 4c2A of the ESA requires us to review each listed species status at least once every 5 years. Our regulations at 50
CFR 424.21 require that we publish a notice in the Federal Register announcing species under active review. For additional information about 5-year reviews, refer to our fact sheet at http www.fws.gov/
