Threatened and endangered plants and animals identified on the Hanford Site, as listed by the federal government [50 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR 17] and Washington State (Washington Natural Heritage Program 1990), are shown in Table G.1. No plants or mammals on the federal list are known to occur on the Hanford Site. Several species of plants and animals, however, are under consideration for formal listing by the federal government and Washington State (Table G.2). One species, eatonella (eatonella nivea) is listed by the State as threatened. However, it has not been sighted on Hanford. It is known to exist near the Site and occupies habitats similar to those found at Hanford. Surveys have not been completed for this species. Washington State plant species of concern are listed in Table G.3.
