Abstract:
Subsistence migratory bird hunting is authorized in subsistence-eligible areas of Alaska. We collect information on the annual subsistence harvest of 60 species of birds (including geese, ducks, swans, cranes, loons, seabirds, shorebirds, and upland game birds) through surveys of households in the subsistence-eligible areas of Alaska. Data are used to promulgate harvest regulations to provide maximum subsistence harvest opportunity while keeping migratory bird populations at desired levels.

Miscellaneous Actions
Short Statement:
We are reporting a burden decrease of 6,795 responses and 567 burden hours. These adjustments in agency estimates are the result of a reduced sampling effort (total households surveyed) and reduction from three household visits to a single household visit for harvest data collection. Since 2014, the AMBCC survey includes harvest monitoring for the Cordova harvest, which is part of the registration required by Federal regulation (Federal Register, 79 FR 19454, April 8 2014, RIN 1018-BA02). At this time, the Cordova Harvest Report Form is included as Form 3-2381-5. The updated burden estimate (Table 12.1) includes the Cordova harvest. The impact of this component of the survey in the total burden is minimum because it involves on average only 27 registered households per year.
