If, based on peer-reviewed science and after public comment, the Secretary determines that additional restrictions on access to a portion of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore Recreational Area are necessary to protect species listed as endangered under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 ( 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq. ), the Secretary may only restrict, by limitation, closure, buffer, or otherwise, pedestrian and motorized vehicular access for recreational activities for the shortest possible time and on the smallest possible portions of the Cape Hatteras National Seashore Recreational Area.
Restrictions imposed under this section for protection of species listed as endangered under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 ( 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq. ) shall not be greater than the restrictions in effect for that species at any other National Seashore. To the maximum extent possible, the Secretary shall designate pedestrian and vehicular corridors of minimal distance on the beach or interdunal area around closures implemented under this section to allow access to areas not closed.
