Endangered Species Program Information on Library Server
This week the Division of Endangered Species placed several
electronic information items on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service's (Service) Information Resources Management Library
Server. These items include:
-- The List of Threatened and Endangered Species
(entitled, "Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and
Plants"), current as of June 30, 1994 and to be updated
monthly;
-- The Plant Notice of Review (entitled, "Plant Taxa for
Listing as Endangered or Threatened Species, Notice of
Review), as published on September 30, 1993;
-- The Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended through
the 100th Congress;
-- Species Maps that indicate listed species and proposed
species by state and territory, current as of June 1,
1994;
-- Species Maps that indicate Category 1 species and
candidate species by state and territory, current as of
December 31, 1993.
The Library Server can be accessed through cc:mail within the
Service and through Internet E-mail software from outside the
Service. If you address a new cc:mail message to R9IRMLIB
(the Library Server's cc:mail address), type the retrieval
command, Send ES Instructions, on the subject line and then
send the message, you will receive the complete list of "send"
messages (retrieval commands) available on the Library Server
for the Endangered Species Program (see attachment). This
list will change over time as we add more information on the
Library Server. For example, we will be adding the new Animal
Notice of Review once it has been published in the Federal
Register.
Those from outside the Service with Internet E-mail
capabilities should use R9IR...@mail.fws.gov (the Library
Server's Internet address) to access the above information.
I hope providing this information electronically will assist
the work of Service employees and all individuals and groups
interested in endangered species.
