The Endangered Species Act (ESA) Amy Yu

The Endangered Species Act Originally passed in 1973 by the United States Congress (National) Significant amendments were added in 1978, 1982, 1988, and 2004 but the overall framework has remained the same Current funds were authorized in 1992 Today, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Commerce Department’s National Marine Fisheries Service are responsible for regulation and enforcement

What does it do? The ESA’s purpose is to protect and recover endangered species and their ecosystems. Each species is listed as “endangered”, in danger of extinction in all of a large amount of its range, or “threatened”, likely to be endangered in the near future. All plants and invertebrates are eligible for protection Provides funding for the preservation of habitats of endangered species and prohibits Federal agencies from carrying out actions that would harm an endangered species or it’s habitat.
