Endangered Species Act Compliance: Rescission of the Regulatory Definition of “Harm”

$129.99

Stay ahead of regulatory changes impacting endangered species protection. This course covers the significant shift in Endangered Species Act (ESA) compliance following the rescission of the regulatory definition of “harm.” Learn how direct, affirmative acts are now the focus of section 9 enforcement, which activities no longer require federal permits or mitigation, and how to align your internal policies and conservation plans with the revised statutory requirements. Gain practical guidance on adapting to these changes and mitigating legal and financial risks.

In this course you will learn the following:
* Understand the background and rationale for rescinding the regulatory definition of “harm.”
* Identify the key requirements and compliance obligations under the new rule.
* Implement actionable steps to align with the statutory definition of “take.”
* Recognize the implications for permitting, consultations, and conservation planning.
* Assess the consequences of non-compliance and the transition provisions for existing permits and agreements.

NOTE: Unless otherwise indicated, all course purchases are for access to the course for a period of 1-year.  At the end of the one year term, the course will be set to “inactive”. 

Why This Course is Important
Without this course, you risk misunderstanding the new compliance requirements under the ESA, potentially leading to unlawful activities, legal penalties, and missed opportunities for cost savings and regulatory certainty.
