Does this appeal affect state or federal consideration of the significance of Canada lynx habitat around Moosehead?
On February 25, 2009, the entire area covered by Plum Creekâs concept plan was designated “critical habitat” for the federally threatened Canada lynx. The appeal does not affect that. If Plum Creek moves forward to obtain any development permit requiring review by the federal government, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will review the proposed development for its impacts on lynx and lynx habitat under the Federal Endangered Species Act.
