NOAA Fisheries Service Begins to Review Status of Oregon Coastal Coho Salmon

摘要

Noaa Fisheries Service is beginning a review of the status of the Oregon coastal coho salmon, currently listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act, the agency said April 28.rnNOAA Fisheries listed the Oregon coast's evolution-arily significant unit of coho salmon as threatened in February 2008 following a court-ordered status review of the fish (39 ER 275, 2/8/08).rnThe agency had been directed by a federal district court to reconsider the 2006 delisting of the Oregon coastal coho because NOAA Fisheries' delisting decision did not represent the best available science, as required by the Endangered Species Act (Trout Unlimited v. Lohn, D. Or., No. 06-1493, 10/9/07; 38 ER 2197, 10/12/07).
