I want to know the answer to the following question:
What is the primary consideration for determining if projects may be carried out in areas with endangered species?
All the background I'm provided with is that "If harm cannot be avoided, the project agency can seek an exemption from the Endangered Species Committee, an ad hoc panel composed of members from the executive branch and at least one appointee from the state where the project is to occur.". Is that enough to answer the question?
