The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) proposes to revise the designated critical habitat for the northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). Consistent with the best scientific data available, the standards of the Act, our regulations, and agency practice, we have initially identified, for public comment, approximately 13,962,449 acres (ac) (5,649,660 hectares (ha)) in 11 units and 63 subunits in California, Oregon, and Washington that meet the definition of critical habitat. In addition, however, the Act provides the Secretary with the discretion to exclude certain areas from the final designation after taking into consideration economic impacts, impacts on national security, and any other relevant impacts of spec...

Which brings us to the offsets themselves. When I buy carbon credits toward a wind plant or a methane farm, what exactly am I getting? How do I know that the dollars I designate for, say, a Sumatran hydraulic power station will eliminate the promised amount of greenhouse gas? To provide some accountability, most of the offset companies use third-party certification such as Gold Standard, which has strict guidelines for projects in developing countries; the Center for Resource Solutions is launching the Green-e program to do the same for US projects. The certifying agencies evaluate offset projects on factors such as "additionality" (whether the greenhouse-gas reduction would happen anyway) and "double counting" (more than one stakeholder takes credit for the same project). But they don'...

The Department of Labor (the Department) is amending its regulations governing the certification of the employment of nonimmigrant workers in temporary or seasonal non-agricultural employment and the enforcement of the obligations applicable to employers of such nonimmigrant workers. This Final Rule revises the process by which employers obtain a temporary labor certification from the Department for use in petitioning the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to employ a nonimmigrant worker in H-2B status. We have also created new regulations to provide for increased worker protections for both United States (U.S.) and foreign workers.
