{"abstract":"We, the Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), announce a 12- month finding on a petition to list the Mt. Charleston blue butterfly (Plebejus shasta charlestonensis) (formerly in genus Icaricia) as endangered or threatened under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. After review of all available scientific and commercial information, we find that listing the Mt. Charleston blue butterfly is warranted. Currently, however, listing of the Mt. Charleston blue is precluded by higher priority actions to amend the Lists of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants. Upon publication of this 12-month petition finding, we will add the Mt. Charleston blue butterfly to our candidate species list. If an emergency situation develops with this subspecies that warrants an emergency listing, we will act immediately to provide additional protection. We will develop a proposed rule to list this subspecies as our priorities allow. We will make any determination on critical habitat during development of the proposed listing rule.","action":"Notice of 12-month petition finding.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR","name":"Interior Department","id":253,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/interior-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/253","parent_id":null,"slug":"interior-department"},{"raw_name":"Fish and Wildlife Service","name":"Fish and Wildlife Service","id":197,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/fish-and-wildlife-service","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/197","parent_id":253,"slug":"fish-and-wildlife-service"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2011/03/08/2011-4884.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":17,"title":50}],"citation":"76 FR 12667","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"The finding announced in the document was made on March 8, 2011.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["Docket No. FWS-R8-ES-2010-0028","MO 92210-0-0008"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2011-4884","effective_on":null,"end_page":12683,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2011/03/08/2011-4884.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2011/03/08/2011-4884/endangered-and-threatened-wildlife-and-plants-12-month-finding-on-a-petition-to-list-the-mt","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2011-4884?publication_date=2011-03-08","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2011-03-08/2011-4884/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":17,"page_views":{"count":265,"last_updated":"2026-10-24 00:15:05 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2011-03-08/pdf/2011-4884.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"2011-03-08","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2011/03/08/2011-4884.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2011-03-26T09:50:18Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":12667,"subtype":null,"title":"Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; 12-Month Finding on a Petition To List the Mt.
