Notes

"Management of the federal fluid mineral estate is conducted by the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management (BLM), regardless of surface ownership. A necessary component to the retrieval of federal fluid minerals is the need for and use of freshwater ... This Programmatic Biological Assessment will serve as the updated means by which the BLM complies with the Endangered Species Act (ESA), and addresses the effects of water depletions associated with management of the federal fluid mineral estate in western Colorado within the Colorado River Basin excluding the San Juan River basin, on four federally endangered fish: Bonytail, Colorado Pikeminnow, Humpback Chub, and Razorback Sucker"--Page 5.
