No You must determine whether species listed as either threatened or endangered,or their critical habitat(s)are located in your site's action area(i.e.,all areas to be affected directly or indirectly by the federal action and not merely the immediate area involved in the action,including areas beyond the footprint of the site that are likely to be affected by stormwater discharges,discharge-related activities,and authorized non-stormwater discharges). Determine your Action Area You must consider the following in determining the action area for your site,and confirm that all the following are true: 1+ In determining my"action area",I have considered that discharges of pollutants into downstream areas can expand the action area well beyond the footprint of my site and the discharge point(s).I have taken into account the controls I will be implementing to minimize pollutants and the receiving waterbody characteristics(e.g.,perennial,intermittent,ephemeral)in determining the extent of physical,chemical,and/or biotic effects of the discharges.I confirm that all receiving waterbodies that could receive pollutants from my site are included in my action area. Tru e �► In determining my"action area",I have considered that discharge-related activities must also be accounted for in determining my action area.I understand that discharge-related activities are any activities that cause,contribute to,or result in stormwater and authorized non-stormwater point source discharges,and measures such as the siting,construction timing,and operation of stormwater controls to control,reduce, or prevent pollutants from being discharged.I understand that any new or modified stormwater controls that will have noise or other similar effects,and any disturbances associated with construction of controls, are part of my action area. True Determine is ESA-listed species and/or critical habitat are in your site action area. ESA-listed species and designated critical habitat are under the purview of the NMFS and the USFWS,and in many cases,you will need to acquire species and critical habitat lists from both federal agencies.
