1018-BB77 201804 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 1018 United States Fish and Wildlife Service FWS 1000 Department of the Interior DOI Migratory Bird Permits; Removing a Depredation Order for Scrub Jays and Steller's Jays in Washington and Oregon

We are withdrawing our proposed rule to remove 50 CFR 21.46, a regulation that sets forth a depredation order for scrub jays and Steller’s jays in Oregon and Washington. We had proposed to remove this regulation as we had received no reports of activities undertaken under the provisions of section 21.46 in the last 10 years. However, we have recently received several reports under this depredation order, so we are now withdrawing the proposed rule. See RIN 1018-AX92 for additional background.
