OPINION
BETTY B. FLETCHER, Circuit Judge:
Arizona Cattle Growers’ Association (“Arizona Cattle”) appeals from the district court’s grant of summary judgment rejecting its challenge to the United States Fish and Wildlife Service’s (“FWS”) designation of critical habitat for the Mexican Spotted Owl. Arizona Cattle argues that the FWS unlawfully designated areas containing no owls as “occupied” habitat and that the FWS calculated the economic impacts of the designation by applying an impermissible “baseline” approach. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.
