- Final Rule for Atlantic Salmon Critical Habitat
- When a species is listed as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act, the Act requires us to designate critical habitat for the species within a year of the listing. We designated critical habitat for the Gulf of Maine distinct population segment of Atlantic salmon in 2009. The critical habitat for the endangered wild Atlantic salmon Maine population is the freshwater range of watersheds from the Androscoggin River northward along the Maine coast to the Dennys River, an area that includes the Penobscot and Kennebec Rivers. The critical habitat designation brings extra attention to the habitats that are essential to the species and that may need special management considerations or protections.

- Section 4(b)(2) Report Supporting Designating Critical Habitat
- This report contains NMFS Northeast Region’s analysis pursuant to Section 4(b)(2) of the Endangered Species Act (ESA), which supports the proposed designation of critical habitat for the Gulf of Maine Distinct Population Segment (GOM DPS) of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). In this analysis, we describe the benefits of designating any particular area as critical habitat based upon the biological value of the area to the GOM DPS. We also describe the economic, national security, and other relevant impacts of designating any particular area as critical habitat. We then balance the benefits of designation against the impacts of designation and, as a result of this balancing, propose to exclude from the designation a number of particular areas for which we determined that the benefits of exclusion (i.e., the economic, national security, and other relevant impacts that would result if the area were designated) outweighed the benefits of designation. For these areas, we also determined that exclusion would not result in extinction of the GOM DPS.
