{"abstract":"NMFS announces the initiation of a 5-year review for the sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus). NMFS is required by the Endangered Species Act (ESA) to conduct 5-year reviews to ensure that the listing classifications of species are accurate. The 5-year review must be based on the best scientific and commercial data available at the time of the review. We request submission of any such information on the sperm whale, particularly information on the status, threats, and recovery of the species that has become available since its last status review in 2015.","action":"Notice; request for information.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE","name":"Commerce Department","id":54,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/commerce-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/54","parent_id":null,"slug":"commerce-department"},{"raw_name":"National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration","name":"National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration","id":361,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/national-oceanic-and-atmospheric-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/361","parent_id":54,"slug":"national-oceanic-and-atmospheric-administration"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2021/05/27/2021-11190.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"86 FR 28577","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"To allow us adequate time to conduct this review, we must receive your information no later than July 26, 2021.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["RTID 0648-XB029"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2021-11190","effective_on":null,"end_page":28578,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2021/05/27/2021-11190.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/05/27/2021-11190/endangered-and-threatened-species-notice-of-initiation-of-a-5-year-review-of-the-sperm-whale","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2021-11190?publication_date=2021-05-27","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2021-05-27/2021-11190/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":2,"page_views":{"count":416,"last_updated":"2026-08-25 20:15:03 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-05-27/pdf/2021-11190.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2021-11190.pdf?1622033131","publication_date":"2021-05-27","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2021/05/27/2021-11190.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":28577,"subtype":null,"title":"Endangered and Threatened Species; Notice of Initiation of a 5-Year Review of the Sperm Whale","toc_doc":"Initiation of a 5-Year Review of the Sperm Whale","toc_subject":"Endangered and Threatened Species:\n","topics":[],"type":"Notice","volume":86}
