2112
. If a recovery strategy for one of the species identified
pursuant to Section 2105 or 2106 includes policies to guide the
department's issuance of memoranda of understanding pursuant to
Section 2081 and the department's consultation procedures pursuant to
Section 2090, the department shall develop and adopt rules and
guidelines to implement those policies. The rules and guidelines
shall be based upon the best available scientific evidence and shall
be consistent with the recovery strategy adopted. The rules and
guidelines may clearly specify conditions and circumstances under
which the taking of a species listed as a threatened species or
endangered species would be prohibited by the department, or,
conversely, when it would not require a memorandum of understanding
pursuant to Section 2081.
