USFWS proposes to remove the Gila chub (Gila intermedia) from the Federal List of Endangered and Threatened Wildlife. Their review indicates that, based on the best scientific and commercial data available, the Gila chub is not a valid taxonomic entity and does not meet the definition of a species under the ESA. Accordingly, they propose to delist the Gila chub. If finalized this rule as proposed, the prohibitions and conservation measures provided by the Act, particularly through sections 7 and 9, would no longer apply to the Gila chub. They will accept comments received or postmarked on or before 18 August 2025.
