Note: The Service must make finding within 90 days of receiving a petition as to whether or not there is substantial information indicating that the petitioned listing may be warranted.
Note: The Service must make finding within 9 months of the 90-day finding that there is substantial information indicating that the petitioned listing may be warranted. There are two distinct actions for petition management. The first step in 30/90 day finding; however, not all 90-day findings will trigger a 12-month action. 90-day findings that are substantial require 12-month findings that funded at a different level, and require public notice or status review. 12-month findings could result in listing a species.
Note: Publication in the Federal Register of a 12-month finding makes public the Service's decision on a petition to list a species as threatened or endangered under the Federal Endangered Species Act. That finding is based on a detailed assessment of the available information on the species, as detailed in the species' status review. One of three possible conclusions can be reached as part of the finding: that listing is warranted, not warranted, or warranted but presently precluded by other higher-priority listing activities involving other species.
Note: Listing a species as threatened or endangered provides the species with protections under Endangered Species Act. These include restrictions on taking, transporting, or selling species; a requirement that federal agencies not fund, permit or undertake activities that would jeopardize the continued existence of the species; authorization for the Service to develop and carry out recovery plans; authority to purchase important habitat; and federal aid to state wildlife agencies that have cooperative agreements with the Service. This activity includes revisions and corrections to listing packages, as well as reclassifications from threatened to endangered.
Note: The law provides for designation of critical habitat for listed species when judged to be prudent and determinable . Critical habitat includes geographic areas on which are found those physical or biological features essential to the conservation of the species and which may require special management considerations or protection. Critical habitats may include areas not occupied by the species at the time of listing but that are essential to the conservation of the species. Critical habitat designations affect only federal agency actions or federally funded or permitted activities. This activity includes revisions and corrections to critical habitat packages.
Laws, regulations: Endangered Species Act Section 4, 50CFR424, 50CFR17.11, 50CFR17.12, 50CFR17.40-48, 50CFR17 subpart E, National Environmental Policy Act |

| 7Q: Conserve Habitats to Support Non-Threatened and Endangered Species |
All costs associated with enhancing the habitat (flooding, acquiring water rights, adjusting food availability, etc.) for the purpose of improving condition of species as well as annual and cyclic habitat management for purpose of species management.
This work activity may also include costs associated with assessing and documenting existing habitat conditions to determine the presence or absence, abundance, range, and/or distribution status, for plant and botanical resources, and species occurrence for non-endangered or threatened fish, wildlife, fungi and plant species and their habitat parameters. This work may include the collection, analysis, evaluation, interpretation, and synthesis of habitat baseline data and reporting of habitat information. The work also includes habitat-monitoring efforts related to species habitat parameters that are directly relevant to a species of interest.
This activity is intended to capture costs associated with managing habitat as a means for managing non-T&E species. It includes habitat enhancement, habitat replacement, use of easements, annual and cyclic habitat management, and purchase of water and water rights.
This work activity also includes all labor and operating costs associated with restoration and management of habitats (including uplands, wetlands, and riparian and aquatic habitats) supporting biologic communities. In addition, activities aimed at conservation of habitat for species of management concern are included: Work activities include habitat restoration, habitat enhancement, habitat replacement, use of easements, annual and cyclic habitat management, purchase of water and water rights.
The distinction between this activity and the activities for restoring wetland, upland, riparian, and aquatic habitats and their natural processes (DOI activities 7F, 7G, 7J, and 7K) is the focus an a specific habitat for the plant or animal species, rather than on restoration of an ecosystem in general.

| 7R: Conserve Non-Threatened and Endangered Species |
Includes actions identified in the implementation schedule of federally authorized recovery plans for Endangered Species Act (ESA) listed species and actions identified in conservation strategies for listed, proposed, candidate or sensitive species. Actions implemented must be specifically related to the species of concern and referenced in the recovery plan or conservation strategy. This work activity includes the collection, evaluation and reporting of species population information (including Special Status Species) necessary to determine if management decisions are being met. Actions include: hunting, fishing, and trapping regulations; grants to states and tribes; disease management, endangered species listing; endangered species recovery implementation; reintroductions; predictive population modeling; predator control/population reduction; subsistence programs (Alaska) nest structures, fish hatchery production, harvest of plants and animals for cultural and commercial purposes, fencing and enclosures; outreach, education and training.
This work activity also includes all labor and operating costs associated with documenting population status and trend, and recovery plan tasks or conservation strategy actions implemented. Do not include plan or strategy development.
Monitoring is different from inventory in that a specific hypothesis or question is tested (e.g., are population trends stable, declining or increasing?). For purposes of consistency, any site established for monitoring species populations will be considered a population (e.g., 180 bald eagle sites monitored is a more accurate reflection of the work, rather than reporting 1 population of bald eagles; 3 smolt traps in a basin to monitor Chinook salmon are counted as 3 sites, and hence 3 populations monitored).
Monitoring, inventory, or treatments that would normally be done for other reasons or for other programs should not be included here even if they occur in the same area of concern and may have positive effects for the species of concern. |

| ACCOUNTING CLASSIFICATION STRUCTURE MANAGEMENT PROCESS (FBMS) |
Within each department or agency, the accounting classification structure and definitions must be standardized to ensure consistency, uniformity, and efficiency in accounting treatment, classification, and reporting. The Accounting Classification Structure Management process provides a consistent basis for:
o Consolidating government-wide financial information.
o Integrating planning, budgeting, and accounting.
o Capturing data at the lowest level of detail-at the point of data entry-throughout the agency in a manner that ensures that when data is rolled up to the level that is standardized, it is consistent at the standardized level,
o Comparing and combining similar programs across agencies and calculating overall program re-sults.
The OMB Circular A-127, Financial Management Systems, requires financial management systems to reflect an agency-wide financial information classification structure that is consistent with the U.S. Government Standard General Ledger (SGL), provides for tracking of specific program expenditures, and covers financially related information.
Additionally, it states: Financial management system designs shall support agency budget, accounting, and financial man-agement reporting processes by providing consistent financial information for budget formulation, budget execution, programmatic and financial management, performance measurement, and financial statement preparation.
The accounting classification structure is a subset of the agency financial information classification structure, which also includes financially related personnel information, performance measurement information, and other financial information needed by the agency. It provides the means for catego-rizing financial information along several dimensions as needed to support financial management and reporting functions. The data elements a particular bureau includes in its accounting classification structure will depend on the Department's implementation strategy for the SGL chart of accounts and the accounting models which are standardized within Interior to ensure appropriate data aggregation to meet management requirements, requirements for the preparation of financial statements under the CFO Act, compliance with OMB and Treasury reporting requirements and other reporting require-ments using financial data.

Upon disposal, or when identified for disposal and no longer in use, the function identifies the property record as a disposal and no longer includes the value of the as-set and its associated accumulated depreciation/amortization in calculating the gross and net book value of property. This function calculates depreciation/amortization on property, captures deferred mainte-nance, condition, and clean-up cost information and provides this information to the Core Financial System.

| BUDGETING PROCESS (FBMS) |
The Budgeting Process identifies funds available to an agency for inventory purchases. In some agencies, the amount of funds provided to an agency for inventory acquisition is determined through the budget justification process as an approved level of inventory requirements of that agency and is enacted into legislation.
Revolving funds are often used to acquire inventory items for resale. Agencies using revolving funds for inventory may not need to comply strictly with all the requirements associated with this process depend-ing on the structure and authorization of their funds. However, at a minimum, plans should be prepared and monitored to ensure that sufficient levels of cash and/or budgetary resources are maintained in these funds.
The inventory system must be consistent with the core financial system in how it supports budget execu-tion and funds control. The inventory system software may depend entirely on the core financial system software for support of budget establishment and funds control, or it may depend only partially, with some tasks being performed by the core financial system software and some by the inventory system software.
The types of items procured are usually determined by mission requirements. Various types of inventory items authorized and acquired by an agency may involve inventory groups termed commodities . Examples are electronics, construction, repair parts, and general items. Where management sets a funding limi-tation on the total inventory purchases, the budgetary resources may be provided to an agency or subdivided within the agency, to limit the acquisition of items within a commodity by limitations imposed on available resources for a commodity.
The Budgeting Process consists of Inventory Budget Establishment, and Control of Inventory Funding.
Inventory Budget Establishment establishes budgetary limitations for inventory.
Control of Inventory Funding supports the control of funds allocated to inventories in a manner consis-tent with OMB Circular A-34 and the JFMIP Core Financial System Requirements.

| CLOSEOUT PROCESS (FBMS) |
All grants ultimately require closeout. Discretionary grants are generally awarded for projects with stated completion dates. Their duration may be extended, but will eventually end. This is not the case for all mandatory grants, which generally continue unless the program statute is rescinded. Reviews, audits, and documentation for financial, property, and technical matters are usually required for the successful closeout of a grant award. This is the final step in the grant life cycle.
The grantee's authority to incur new obligations against the grant expires at the end of the grant pe-riod The grantee and its Federal awarding agency must then wind up all grant-related business through a process known as closeout. For the grantee, closeout may include such tasks as disposing of major property acquired under the grant; submitting final reports on the grant-supported activity; and rendering a final accounting for the Federal funds made available for the grant. The Federal awarding agency uses the data from the grantee's final financial report to determine its final financial obligation to the grantee and to settle any resulting claims due to or from the grantee.
Closeout is generally the concluding act of administering a grant.

| COLLECTION ACTIONS PROCESS (FBMS) |
The agency has considerable flexibility in determining how to collect its delinquent debt. The size, age, and type of debt are essential factors in determining the resources to be expended in recovering debt. OMB Circular A-129 and the Credit Supplement to the TFM provide guidelines to determine the appropriate tools to use to collect delinquent debt. If collateral is attached to the direct loan, fore-closure and liquidation of the collateral should occur after providing the debtor reasonable opportunity to cure the loan. Any deficiency balance may be pursued using collection tools such as referral of the balance for cross servicing. Delinquent Debt Collection: Collec-tion Actions Process, Troubled Debt Servicing under agency program requirements includes:
o Report Delinquent Debt
o Contact with the Debtor
o Refer for Treasury Offset

| COST DISTRIBUTION PROCESS (FBMS) |
The managerial cost accounting concepts and standards contained in SFFAS 4 are aimed at providing reliable and timely information on the full cost of programs, their activities and outputs. The information is to be used by stakeholders, executives and managers in making decisions about allocating resources, authorizing and modifying programs, and evaluating program performance. Program managers can also use the cost information for making managerial decisions to improve operating efficiency. Ultimately, the effectiveness of a cost management program lies in the way managers use the cost information asked for and reported to them.
The Cost Dstribution Process should include the identification and accumulation of direct and/or indirect costs in a cost structure or group of cost structures and then, in an automated fash-ion, provide for the distribution of those costs to another cost structure or group of cost structures. The basis for the distribution should be flexible and could include but not be limited to fixed percent-ages or by calculation of percentages based on statistical units fed in from other integrated systems (such as labor hours, CPU units, FTE, floor space, etc.). The process should be multi-level and pro-vide for redistribution of costs within the process. It should have the flexibility to distribute various kinds of costs (expenditures, reimbursable costs, revenue, etc.). The process should generate transac-tions that can be processed, tracked and integrated into the Core financial system.

| Cost Management (FBMS) |
The Cost Management sub-function attempts to measure the total cost of Federal programs, and their various elements, activities and outputs. Cost Management is essential for providing accurate program measure-ment information, performance measures, and financial statements with verifiable reporting of the cost of activities. The term cost refers to the monetary value of resources used or sacrificed or liabilities in-curred to achieve an objective, such as to acquire or produce a good or perform an activity or service. A cost object is any activity, output or item whose cost is to be measured.
The level of sophistication of the Cost Management sub-function will vary by bureau depending on the specific requirements of the bureau and the operational nature of the programs involved (appropriation only, appropriation with reimbursable authority, revolving fund). For example, bureaus that operate large projects may use a project management system that provides cost accounting information that is inte-grated with the Core Financial System. Other cost accounting maybe just handled in the financial system. The Department is implementing activity-based-cost accounting. Therefore, the Cost Management Proc-ess must support the financial requirements for activity based cost accounting.

Recognition of the effects of transactions in financial systems is fundamental to the accounting proc-ess. Recognition determines when the results of an event are to be included in financial statements and ensures that the effects of similar events and transactions are accounted for consistently within the Federal government. Provide the capability to direct charge between entities when one entity provides goods or services for another entity. In direct charging, the servicing entity charges to a cost structure that is provided by the receiving entity. The direct charged cost should be charges and /or tracked by original organizational code and object code or revenue source code. This feature should be provided for all of the applicable types of financial transactions (obligations, accruals, payments, travel vouchers, journal vouchers, etc.).

| COST SETUP AND ACCUMULATION PROCESS (FBMS) |
The Cost Setup and Accumulation Process identifies and tracks cost data associated with the specific cost objects required by management. This process provides for the establishment of identifiers for the desired cost objects in the processes, systems and applications that make up the accounting sys-tem, and for the subsequent collection of cost data. A Department financial management system must allow the establishment of cost object identifiers consistent with the stated needs of its financial and operational managers. Ideally, the financial system will allow this to be done in a straightforward manner, without undue complexity. The Cost Setup and Accumulation process provides the data needed for accountability over the financial execution of public programs, meaningful comparisons to measure compliance with management policies, evaluation of the efficiency and economy of re-sources used in the various activities, and support for fees, services, or products.
