The provision directs the Secretary to clarify that rice ratooning and post-disaster flooding, when carried out as part of a normal agricultural operation, do not constitute baiting. Current Federal regulations in 50 CFR part 20 prohibit the use of baiting to attract birds when hunting.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background In 1916, the United States and Great Britain (on behalf of Canada), signed a treaty to protect migratory birds. In 1918, Congress passed the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) (16 U.S.C. 703– 711) to implement the treaty with Canada. Among other things, the MBTA, as enacted, prohibited unauthorized hunting and selling of birds covered by the treaty. The United States later signed bilateral treaties with Mexico, Japan, and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics to protect migratory birds. After each treaty was signed, Congress amended the MBTA to cover the species addressed in that treaty. Unless permitted by regulation, the MBTA E:\FR\FM\08AUR1.SGM 08AUR1

this deletion does not preclude future actions under CERCLA.
