§ 2079 Endangered Species Status Report

• •A report must be ready every three years, due by Jan 30.
• •The report must list every state‑listed endangered, threatened, and candidate species.
• •It must explain each species’ current situation and the schedule for future reviews.
• •The finished report has to be posted on the commission’s website.

The wildlife department learns that a rare salamander is doing better after a new pond is built. By the Jan 30 deadline, they add the salamander’s update to the report and upload the report to the commission’s website.

The department follows the law by preparing the report on time, listing the salamander with other species, describing how its numbers have changed, and posting the whole report online for anyone to see.
