STATEMENT OF MUTUAL BENEFIT AND INTEREST. The mission of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is working with others to conserve, protect, manage, and enhance fish, wildlife, plants, and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the American people. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is legally mandated to implement the provisions of the ESA and Migratory Bird Treaty Act. The East Lansing Field Office and regional Ecological Services program have helped coordinate protection and recovery of Kirtland’s warblers under the ESA since the species was listed. In addition, the Xxxxx National Wildlife Refuge manages the Kirtland’s Warbler Wildlife Management Area in cooperation with Michigan DNR and other partners to provide habitat for Kirtland’s warblers and other species. Finally, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Migratory Bird Program may be engaged in long term conservation of Kirtland’s warblers in multiple ways including ensuring the species remains a priority after delisting, helping develop long term population monitoring within a conservation context, and strengthening national and international partnerships. The Michigan DNR is committed to the conservation, protection, management, accessible use and enjoyment of the State's natural resources for current and future generations. The Michigan DNR is legally mandated to implement the provisions of the state endangered species legislation in Part 365 of Public Act 451 of 1994. Furthermore, the Michigan DNR is responsible for the protection and conservation of all wildlife, including the Kirtland’s warbler, even if it is removed from the state or federal endangered species list. The Michigan DNR must also seek and maintain forest certification under Public Act 125 of 2004. One important facet of forest certification is to sustain forest biodiversity. The Michigan DNR has participated actively in the recovery of the Kirtland’s warbler since the songbird was first added to state and federal endangered species lists. The goal of the State’s program for nearly four decades has been the recovery of the species and eventual removal from those lists. Michigan DNR hopes that this MOU will move us one step closer to the goal of a viable and sustainable population of Kirtland’s warbler that is no longer in danger of extinction in the foreseeable future. The mission of the U.S. Forest Service is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the Nation’s forests and grasslands to meet the needs of present and future generations. As part of their La...

These agencies will be referred to collectively in this MOU as the “National Trail administering agencies.” BLM, USBR, NPS, USFS, FWS, and USACE serve as “National Trail managing agencies” that are responsible for many of the sites and segments along NSHTs and dozens of NRTs and CSTs. Federal transportation funds, administered by the States through FHWA [which does not own or manage any trails itself], are a major funding source for National Trails and National Trail-related projects through Federal surface transportation funding programs.
