Bill 119 hjres 78 is a piece of legislation that aims to provide congressional disapproval of a rule submitted by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service regarding the endangered species status for the San Francisco Bay-Delta Distinct Population Segment of the Longfin Smelt. The rule in question falls under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, which deals with endangered and threatened wildlife and plants.
The bill seeks to challenge the rule put forth by the Fish and Wildlife Service, which designates the Longfin Smelt population in the San Francisco Bay-Delta as an endangered species. The bill argues that this designation could have negative impacts on various industries and communities in the region.
If passed, this legislation would effectively nullify the rule proposed by the Fish and Wildlife Service, preventing the Longfin Smelt from receiving endangered species status. This bill is part of a larger debate surrounding environmental conservation efforts and the balance between protecting endangered species and economic interests.
Overall, Bill 119 hjres 78 represents a significant decision for Congress in determining the fate of the Longfin Smelt population in the San Francisco Bay-Delta and the potential implications for the region's ecosystem and economy.
