Are enforcement actions part of a recovery plan?
Enforcement is an important regulatory tool for implementing the ESA and it will be considered, where effective and appropriate, as a means to improve survival in recovery plans. NOAA Fisheries Service hopes that recovery plans provide better context for regulatory actions, so that decisions can be made about where to target actions, including enforcement, most effectively.
