Comments: On 9/29/2015 we published a Federal Register notice (80 FR 58499) announcing that we would submit this ICR to OMB for approval and soliciting comments. The comment period closed on [December 1, 2015]. We received one comment. The comment did not directly relate to this collection, but rather is a negative response to the capture and marking of birds in general and other actions related to bird management. There were no direct comments about any of the data collection forms so the comment appears to be irrelevant to this process. III.
