Title: Importation of Polar Bear Trophies Taken in Canada 
Abstract: The Service proposes regulations concerning the importation of sport-hunted trophies of polar bears legally taken by the applicant while hunting in Canada. Further, these regulations provide application requirements, permit procedures, issuance criteria; permit conditions, and a fee for each permit issued as required by the Marine Mammal Protection Act for the Service to establish and charge a reasonable fee. This rule does not discuss legal and scientific findings required by the Act's 1994 amendments that need to be made prior to issuing an import permit.
