🐟Proposed Endangered Status for Fish Lake Valley Tui Chub

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), propose to list the Fish Lake Valley tui chub (Siphateles obesus ssp.), a fish found in Esmeralda County in southwestern Nevada, as an endangered species under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (Act). This determination also serves as our 12-month finding on a petition to list the Fish Lake Valley tui chub.
