An act to authorize appropriations to carry out the Endangered Species Act of 1973 during fiscal years 1980, 1981, and 1982, and for other purposes.

Summary

Amends the Endangered Species Act of 1973 to authorize appropriations for fiscal years 1980 through 1982 to carry out such Act. Extends the effective period of endangered species designations to one year. Conditions the granting of a permanent exemption of a species upon: (1) a biological assessment; and (2) the failure of the Secretary of the Interior to find that such exemption would result in the extinction of a species that was not the subject of consultation or identified in a biological assessment prior to or in conjunction with consideration of such exemption. Requires Federal agencies to consult with the Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Marine Fisheries Service not only on species which have been officially listed as threatened or endangered, but also on proposed additions to the official list. Gives an exemption applicant, where a permit or license is involved, 90 days after final agency action to apply for an exemption.
