HR 7897 United States House · 118th Congress

To require the Secretary of the Interior to finalize a proposed rule to remove the Apache trout from the Federal List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife.

This bill requires the Secretary of the Interior to finalize a rule removing the Apache trout from the federal endangered species list within 90 days of enactment. It directly affects the Apache trout, a native fish species in the Southwest, by advancing its delisting from protection under the Endangered Species Act. The key mechanism is mandating the completion of an existing proposed rule (published August 2023) that had already determined the species no longer meets endangerment criteria. This is a procedural step to complete regulatory action, not a new policy change.
