The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is taking comments on a proposal to gut the critical habitat designation for the Marbled Murrelet in Washington, Oregon and California. The proposal excludes 94 percent of the habitat designated in 1996, eliminating more than 3,600,000 acres from the existing designation. Given the Murrelet's dependence on old growth forests and the significant threats to this habitat from logging and development, this proposal would greatly increase the Murrelet's already substantial risk of extinction.
