More precise delisting of endangered species: faster decisions.

New rules aim to streamline the process of removing species from the endangered list when their populations recover or when the initial listing was erroneous. This means decisions on species protection will be made faster and based on more current data, potentially affecting access to certain lands or natural resources.
Key points
Faster removal of species from the endangered list when their populations recover.
Possibility to delist a species if the original listing was based on inaccurate or fraudulent data.
Streamlined five-year reviews of species status, incorporating new criteria.
Decisions to delist a species due to erroneous data will not be subject to judicial review.
