Bush Administration Consultation Rule On Species Well Be Revoked, Salazar Says

摘要

The Obama administration announced April 28 that it will revoke a Bush administration rule that reduced the requirement for other federal agencies to consult with Interior Department or Commerce Department biologists on actions that might affect endangered or threatened species.rn"By rolling back this 11th hour regulation, we are ensuring that threatened and endangered species continue to receive the full protection of the law," Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said in a statement on the decision.
