Title: Migratory Bird Permits; Revisions to Banding or Marking Permits | |
Abstract:
We propose to revise our migratory bird banding and marking regulations to: (1) Reflect the transfer of authority for the Federal bird banding and marking permit program to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS); (2) define the qualification guidelines for different levels of banding and marking authorization; and (3) address changes in banding and marking technology. This proposed rule is an important action that requires continued coordination with USGS as the Bird Banding Lab implements this regulation. We continue to work with USGS to understand the necessary changes, update components of the regulation, and agree upon additional aspects of the rulemaking process. |
