TO: The Honorable Dan Ashe

FROM: Rob Bishop, Chairman

Dear Director Ashe: 

On March 4. 2015, I sent you a letter requesting certain information regarding the proposed listing of the Northern Long-Eared Bat ("NLEB"). Specifically, the letter requested that you provide, among other things, "data, population models, or any other
analytical tools used which demonstrate (1) the effect of the disease on the NLEB population; (2) the effect of all the other factors on the NLEB population; and (3) the effect of the controls imposed by the 4(d) rule on the NLEB population."
