SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

The Lost River sucker (Deltistes luxatus) and shortnose sucker
(Chasmistes brevirostris) are large, long-lived fishes endemic to the
Upper Klamath River Basin of Oregon and California. Listed as
endangered pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (Act) on July
18, 1988 (52 FR 32145), the Service proposed to designate a total of
approximately 182,400 hectares (456,000 acres) of stream, river, lake,
and shoreline areas as critical habitat for the shortnose sucker, and
approximately 170,000 hectares (424,000 acres) of stream, river, lake,
and shoreline areas as critical habitat for the Lost River Sucker on
December 1, 1994 (59 FR 61744).
Section 4(b)(5)(E) of the Act (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) requires
that a public hearing be held if it is requested within 45 days of the
publication of the proposed rule. Public hearing requests were received
from a number of requesters. As a result, the Service has scheduled a
public hearing on March 7, 1995, at the Oregon Institute of Technology,
College Union Auditorium in Klamath Falls, Oregon. Anyone wishing to
make statements for the record should bring a written copy of their
statements to the hearing. Oral statements may be limited in length if
the number of parties present at the hearing necessitates such a
limitation. Oral and written comments receive equal consideration. The
Service places on limits on the length of written comments or materials
presented at the hearing or mailed to the Service.
The comment period on the proposal was to close on January 30,
1995. To accommodate the hearing, the Service extends the public
comment period. Written comments may now be submitted until March 17,
1995, to the Service in the ADDRESSES section.

Authority

The authority for this action is the Endangered Species Act of
1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)

Dated: January 25, 1995.
Thomas J. Dwyer,
Acting Regional Director, Region 1, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
