From what this says, the Western part of washington should not be included in the ESA or the Recovery Plan
You know I just spent several hours reading and digesting President Obama's attempt at defining "significant portion of its range". Reading that bile, the collective "Services" are attempting to convince people that under the guidelines and restrictions of the current Endangered Species Act, saving and/or restoring species that include historic range is not permitted. According to what is written in the Draft Policy, the Secretary doesn't have the authority to attempt to declare critical habitat and recover endangered species in "historical range" only in the range in which the candidate species is currently inhabiting.
Therefore, is there anything from these criminals we should believe?
