Todays update from NOAA:

We are hoping to complete our ESA evaluation by COB this Friday, but we won't know for sure until our internal review of the document is complete. There is always the possibility that the review turns up additional questions or information that need to be addressed which may result in delay. We will notify the co-managers as soon as the evaluation is complete and the incidental take statement is signed so they can get the word out.
