Time is of the essence as to SAN FRANCISCO (AP) Environmental groups complained Monday that the federal government is failing to meet its obligations under the Endangered Species Act, dooming some varieties of plants and animals to extinction.

They claim the Fish and Wildlife Service has stalled on protecting species such as jaguars in the Southwest, black bears in Florida and a now-vanished fish in Nevada. "What's really going on is Fish and Wildlife is terrified about making a stink over endangered species," said David Hogan of the Southwest Center for Biological Diversity. "They don't want money from Congress, they don't want to rock the boat, they don't want to list any more species as endangered." The Southwest Center filed a lawsuit Monday in federal court in San Diego to force the service to act on 44 varieties of plants and animals it said are in danger of disappearing in California. Hogan said the problem in California, as elsewhere, is that listing a species as endangered makes it difficult for developers to build on affected land, and that generates political pressure. It is one of scores of similar lawsuits filed across the country.

"We are falling further and further behind the eight ball," said Melinda Pierce, who represents the Sierra Club in Washington. "The bottom line with this lawsuit and others is that we know our nation's wildlife and plants are imperiled, and the only way we can secure protection for them is if Fish and Wildlife acts." Instead of acting, Pierce said, the agency has abolished much of its waiting list. In one case, Fish and Wildlife dropped 4,000 candidate species without any further study, she said. "The law was intended to save species on the brink of extinction, and unfortunately, that's just not happening," said Jay Watson, the Wilderness Society's top official in the California-Nevada region. Federal officials bristle at the charges.

The real culprit, they say, is lack of funds, not lack of will.

INC. 908 YORK ROAD TOWSON, MARYLAND 21204 410-828-4838 E2959 congressional majority refused any funding for the Endangered Species Act for a year, and the agency is still trying to recover from that moratorium, said Megan Durham, a Fish and Wildlife spokeswoman in Washington. "There is a whole lot of listing going on," she said.

"We developed a backlog of species that needed attention. And the Clinton administration has listed more species than any other despite this moratorium." Critics responded that Fish and Wildlife is sitting on many of those species in violation of the law, which requires action within a year from the date a species is proposed fox listing as endangered. The Southwest Center pointed to its three-year effort to protect the jaguar. The animal, which once roamed from the San Francisco Bay area to the tip of South America, is now seen rarely in the Southwest. Despite its eligibility, the Southwest Center said it had to file lawsuits in 1994 and 19 before the agency agreed to list the jaguar as endangered.

The environmental groups said many other efforts fail, noting that last year Fish and Wildlife removed five species from the candidate list because they had become extinct. They included a minnow-like Nevada fish and a butterfly that vanished from the U.S. territory of Guam..
