Sage and Sharp-tailed Grouse Classified as Threatened Species in Washington |
On April 4, 1998, the Washington Fish and Wildlife Commission listed the sage and sharp-tailed grouse as threatened species in Washington. The action will take affect on May 23, 1998. The Fish and Wildlife Commission classifies species as endangered, threatened, or sensitive using procedures defined in WAC 232-12-297. The procedures specify how listing or delisting will be initiated, criteria for listing and delisting, public review, and recovery and management of listed species. Listing or delisting of species is based solely on the biological status of the species. The Department will initiate recovery plans for the two species within a year.
