General Provisions; Revised List of
Migratory Birds
Fish and Wildlife Service,
Interior.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
We, the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (Service), revise the
List of Migratory Birds protected by the
Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) by
both adding and removing species.
Reasons for the changes to the list
include adding species based on new
taxonomy and new evidence of natural
occurrence in the United States or U.S.
territories, removing species no longer
known to occur within the United States
or U.S. territories, and changing names
to conform to accepted use. The net
increase of 67 species (75 added and 8
removed) will bring the total number of
species protected by the MBTA to 1,093.
We regulate the taking, possession,
transportation, sale, purchase, barter,
exportation, and importation of
migratory birds. An accurate and up-todate list of species protected by the
MBTA is essential for public
notification and regulatory purposes.
DATES: This rule is effective May 18,
2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES2
SUMMARY:
What statutory authority does the
service have for this rulemaking?
We have statutory authority and
responsibility for enforcing the MBTA
(16 U.S.C. 703–712), the Fish and
Wildlife Improvement Act of 1978 (16
U.S.C. 742l), and the Fish and Wildlife
Act of 1956 (16 U.S.C. 742a–j). The
MBTA implements Conventions
between the United States and four
neighboring countries for the protection
of migratory birds, as follows:
(1) Canada: Convention between the
United States and Great Britain [on
behalf of Canada] for the Protection of
Migratory Birds, August 16, 1916, 39
Stat. 1702 (T.S. No. 628), as amended by
Protocol between the Government of the

United States and the Government of
Canada Amending the 1916 Convention
between the United Kingdom and the
United States of America for the
Protection of Migratory Birds, Sen.
Treaty Doc. 104–28 (December 14,
1995);
(2) Mexico: Convention between the
United States and Mexico for the
Protection of Migratory Birds and Game
Mammals, February 7, 1936, 50 Stat.
1311 (T.S. No. 912), as amended by
Protocol with Mexico amending
Convention for Protection of Migratory
Birds and Game Mammals, Sen. Treaty
Doc. 105–26 (May 5, 1997);
(3) Japan: Convention between the
Government of the United States of
America and the Government of Japan
for the Protection of Migratory Birds and
Birds in Danger of Extinction, and Their
Environment, March 4, 1972, 25 U.S.T.
3329 (T.I.A.S. No. 7990); and
(4) Russia: Convention between the
United States of America and the Union
of Soviet Socialist Republics Concerning
the Conservation of Migratory Birds and
Their Environment (Russia), November
19, 1976, 29 U.S.T. 4647 (T.I.A.S. No.
9073).
What is the purpose of this rulemaking?
Our purpose is to inform the public of
the species protected by the MBTA and
its implementing regulations. These
regulations are found in Title 50, Code
of Federal Regulations (CFR), parts 10,
20, and 21. We regulate the taking,
possession, transportation, sale,
purchase, barter, exportation, and
importation of migratory birds. An
accurate and up-to-date list of species
protected by the MBTA is essential for
notifying the public of regulatory
protections.
Why is the amendment of the List of
Migratory Birds necessary?
The amendments we are adopting in
this final rule are needed to:
(1) Add 16 species that qualify for
protection under the MBTA;
(2) Correct the spelling of 3 species
names on the alphabetized list;
(3) Correct the spelling of 3 species
names on the taxonomic list;
(4) Add 30 species based on new
distributional records documenting
their natural occurrence in the United
States or U.S. territories since 2010;
(5) Add one species moved from a
family that was not protected to a family
protected under the MBTA as a result of
taxonomic changes;
(6) Add 28 species newly recognized
as a result of recent taxonomic changes;
(7) Remove 8 species not known to
occur within the boundaries of the
PO 00000
Frm 00002
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700
United States or U.S. territories as a
result of recent taxonomic changes;
(8) Change the common (English)
names of 43 species to conform to
accepted use; and
(9) Change the scientific names of 135
species to conform to accepted use.
The List of Migratory Birds (50 CFR
10.13) was last revised on November 1,
2013 (78 FR 65844). The amendments in
this rule were necessitated by nine
published supplements to the 7th (1998)
edition of the American Ornithologists’
Union (AOU, now recognized as the
American Ornithological Society (AOS))
Check-list of North American Birds
(AOU 2011, AOU 2012, AOU 2013,
AOU 2014, AOU 2015, AOU 2016, AOS
2017, AOS 2018, and AOS 2019) and
the 2017 publication of the Clements
Checklist of Birds of the World
(Clements et al. 2017).
What scientific authorities are used to
amend the List of Migratory Birds?
Although bird names (common and
scientific) are relatively stable, staying
current with standardized use is
necessary to avoid confusion in
communications. In making our
determinations, we primarily relied on
the AOS’s Checklist of North American
birds (AOU 1998), as amended annually
(AOU 1999 through 2016, AOS 2017
through 2019), on matters of taxonomy,
nomenclature, and the sequence of
species and other higher taxonomic
categories (Orders, Families,
Subfamilies) for species that occur in
North America. The AOU (now AOS)
Checklist of North American Birds
(Checklist), developed by the AOU
Committee on Classification and
Nomenclature, has been the recognized
taxonomic authority for North American
birds since publication of the first
edition of the Checklist in 1886. The
committee compiles the taxonomic
foundation for ornithology in North
America; evaluating and codifying the
latest scientific developments in the
systematics, classification,
nomenclature, and distribution of North
American birds. Thus, the AOS’s
Checklist represents the best
information available for developing the
North American component of this List
of Migratory Birds. In keeping with the
increasing numbers of study areas on
which taxonomy relies, the committee
incorporates expertise in phylogenetics,
genomics, vocalizations, morphology,
behavior, and geographical distribution,
as well as general ornithological
knowledge. The AOS Checklist contains
all bird species that have occurred in
North America from the Arctic through
Panama, including the West Indies and
the Hawaiian Islands, and includes
E:\FR\FM\16APR2.SGM
16APR2
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 74 / Thursday, April 16, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
distributional information for each
species, which specifies whether the
species is known to occur in the United
States. The committee also keeps and
updates a list of species known to occur
in the United States.
For the species that occur outside the
geographic area covered by the AOS
Checklist, we relied primarily on the
Clements Checklist of Birds of the
World (Clements Checklist) (Clements et
al. 2007), the Clements Checklist 2017
installment of updates and corrections
(Clements et al. 2017), and other peerreviewed literature where appropriate.
The Clements Checklist is a list of all
known bird species in the world and is
maintained and updated annually by
the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology
(CLO). The CLO relies on different
regional ornithological authorities to
compile the list, using the AOS for the
western hemisphere. Taxonomy and
nomenclature are the primary focus of
the Clements Checklist, but range
descriptions are maintained and
updated based on the best available
information and do not include records
of vagrancy.
Although the Service primarily relies
on the above sources, when informed
taxonomic opinion or documented
natural distribution is inconsistent or
controversial, the Service evaluates
available published and unpublished
information and comes to its own
conclusions regarding the validity of
taxa and records of distribution.

What criteria are used to identify
individual species protected by the
MBTA?
A species qualifies for protection
under the MBTA by meeting one or
more of the following criteria:
(1) It occurs in the United States or
U.S. territories as the result of natural
biological or ecological processes and is
currently, or was previously listed as, a
species or part of a family protected by
one of the four international treaties or
their amendments. Any species that
occurs in the United States or U.S.
territories solely as a result of
intentional or unintentional humanassisted introduction does not qualify
for the MBTA list, regardless of whether
the family the species belongs to is
listed in any of the treaties, unless:
• It was native to the United States or
its territories and extant in 1918;
• It was extirpated after 1918
throughout its range in the United States
and its territories; and
• After such extirpation, it was
reintroduced in the United States or its
territories as part of a program carried
out by a Federal agency.

(2) Revised taxonomy results in it
being newly split from a species that
was previously on the list, and the new
species occurs in the United States or
U.S. territories as the result of natural
biological or ecological processes. If a
newly recognized native species is
considered extinct (following the
classification of the AOS) or, for species
not covered by the AOS, the Clements
Checklist or peer-reviewed literature),
that species will still be included if
either of the following criteria apply:
• The species resembles extant
species included in the list that may be
affected by trade if the species is not
included; or
• Not including the species may
create difficulties implementing the
MBTA and its underlying Conventions.
(3) New evidence exists for its natural
occurrence in the United States or U.S.
territories resulting from natural
distributional changes and the species
occurs in a protected family. Records
must be documented, accepted, and
published by the AOS committee. For
the U.S. Pacific territories that fall
outside the geographic scope of the AOS
and for which there is no identified
ornithological authority, new evidence
of a species’ natural occurrence will be
based on the Clements Checklist and
then published peer-reviewed literature,
in that order.
In accordance with the Migratory Bird
Treaty Reform Act of 2004 (MBTRA)
(Pub. L. 108–447, 118 Stat. 2809, 3071–
72), we only include migratory bird
species that are native to the United
States or U.S. territories. A native
migratory bird species is one that is
present as a result of natural biological
or ecological processes. The list at 50
CFR 10.13 does not include nonnative
species that occur in the United States
or U.S. territories solely as a result of
intentional or unintentional humanassisted introduction(s). Elsewhere in
today’s Federal Register, we publish a
list of nonnative bird species that are
not protected under the MBTA.
How do the changes affect the List of
Migratory Birds?
Several taxonomic changes were
made at the Order and Family level by
the AOS since our 2013 publication of
the list (78 FR 65844; November 1,
2013). These changes affect the
inclusion and taxonomic order of
species on this list. Specifically, the
Order Cathartiformes (New World
vultures) was split from the
Accipitriformes (diurnal birds of prey).
Cathartiformes now includes the Family
Cathartidae (vultures and California
Condor, Gymnogyps californianus). At
the Family level, the Oceanitidae
PO 00000
Frm 00003
Fmt 4701
Sfmt 4700

(southern storm-petrels) was split from
the Hydrobatidae (northern stormpetrels), the Tityridae (becards and
tityras) was split from the Tyrannidae
(tyrant flycatchers), the Passerellidae
(towhees, sparrows, and juncos) was
split from the Emberizidae (buntings),
and the Megaluridae (Locustella
warblers) was renamed to Locustellidae.
The Ptilogonatidae (silky-flycatchers)
was renamed to the Ptiliogonatidae. The
Nesospingidae (Puerto Rican Tanager)
and the Spindalidae (Spindalis genus)
were split from the Thraupidae
(tanagers). The yellow-breasted chat was
split from the Parulidae (wood-warblers)
and placed into Icteriidae (chats).
Within the Scolopacidae (sandpipers,
phalaropes, and allies), new Subfamilies
were created: The curlews were moved
to Numeniinae; the godwits to
Limosinae; and small sandpipers to
Arenariinae and larger sandpipers to
Tringinae, including phalaropes whose
previous Subfamily Phalaropodinae was
removed. Within the Accipitridae
(hawks, eagles, and kites), new
Subfamilies were created: The Whitetailed Kite was move to Elaninae, Hookbilled and Swallow-tailed Kite were
moved to Gypaetinae, and all other
members of the family were moved to
Accipitrinae. Within the Icteridae
(blackbirds), new Subfamilies were
created: Yellow-headed blackbird was
moved to Xanthocephalinae; bobolink
was moved to Dolichonychinae;
meadowlarks were moved to
Sturnellinae; orioles were moved to
Icterinae; and blackbirds, cowbirds, and
grackles were moved to Agelaiinae. In
the Falconidae (caracaras and falcons),
collared forest-falcon was moved into
the new Subfamily Herpetotherinae, and
the Subfamily Caracarinae was
removed, with crested caracara moved
to the Subfamily Falconinae. In the
Fringillidae (finches and allies), the
Hawaiian fringillids were moved from
the Subfamily Drepanidinae to
Carduelinae. The Old World flycatchers
in the Turdidae (thrushes) were moved
to the Muscicapidae (Old World
flycatchers). Bananaquit was moved
from the Coerebidae (a family not
protected by MBTA) to the Thraupidae
(tanagers and allies), which is a family
protected by the MBTA. All other
tanagers were also moved from the
Emberizidae (sparrows) to the
Thraupidae. Within Thraupidae, the
seedeaters were moved into the
Subfamily Sporophilinae, and
bananaquit, grassquits, and bullfinches
were moved into the Subfamily
Coerebinae.
All species previously receiving
protection under the MBTA that have

21284
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 74 / Thursday, April 16, 2020 / Rules and Regulations
been moved to newly created Families
continue to be protected under the
MBTA.
The amendments affect a total of 252
species; 75 additions, 8 removals, and
178 name changes covering 169 species
(9 species had both scientific and
common name changes). The result is a
net addition of 67 species to the List of
Migratory Birds, increasing the number
of species on the list from 1,026 to
1,093. Of the 75 species that we add to
the list, 28 were previously covered
under the MBTA as members of the
same species (conspecific) of listed
species. These amendments can be
logically arranged in the following nine
categories:
(1) Add 16 species that qualify for
protection by the MBTA but have not
been added previously. The addition of
these species is the result of either
accepting AOS taxonomic updates that
were previously excluded or
determinations of documented natural
occurrence in the United States or U.S.
territories. The species and relevant
publication(s) are:
Pink-footed Goose, Anser
brachyrhynchus (AOS 2019);

(4) Add 30 species based on review
and acceptance by the AOS (since 2010)
or by other appropriate ornithological
authorities of new distributional records
documenting their occurrence in the
United States or U.S. territories. These
species belong to families covered by at
least one of the four international
conventions, and all are considered to
be of accidental or casual occurrence.

(5) Add one species because of recent
taxonomic changes transferring a
species in a Family formerly not
protected by the MBTA (Coerebidae)
into a Family protected under the
MBTA (Thraupidae). We reference the
AOS publication supporting the change:
Bananaquit, Coereba flaveola (AOU
2015).
(6) Add 28 species because of recent
taxonomic changes in which taxa
formerly treated as conspecific have
been determined to be distinct species.
Given that each of these species was
formerly treated as conspecific with a
listed species, these additions do not
change the protective status of any of
these taxa, only the names by which
they are known. In each case, we
reference the AOS or relevant
publication supporting the change:

(7) Remove eight species based on
revised taxonomic treatments, either
because a species is taxonomically
merged with another species, either on
or off the list; a species previously on
the list is taxonomically split into
multiple species and the new species is
not known to occur within the United
States or U.S. territories; or the species
is considered extinct (following the
classification of the AOS or, for species
not covered by the AOS, the Clements
Checklist or peer-reviewed literature)
unless any of the following criteria
apply: It is protected under the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.),
or the Convention on International
Trade in Endangered Species of Wild
Fauna and Flora (CITES; 27 U.S.T.

names of 43 species to conform to the
most recent nomenclatural treatment as
described in AOU publications 2011
through 2017, AOS 2018 and 2019 and
Clements et al. (2017). Hawaiian species
names are modified to official Hawaiian
spelling, following the Pukui-Elbert
Hawaiian Dictionary, adding the
diacritical marks to the common names
where applicable. The Government
Publishing Office Style Manual requires
the words Hawaii and Kauai to be
spelled without the diacritical mark.
These revisions do not change the

only the names by which they are
known. In each case, the update is
described in the table, below.
(9) Revise the scientific names of 135

How do the changes adopted in this
rule differ from those described in the
proposed rule?
On November 28, 2018, we published
in the Federal Register (83 FR 61288) a
proposed rule to revise the list of
migratory birds at 50 CFR 10.13; we
accepted public comments on the
proposed rule for 60 days, ending
January 28, 2019. Subsequently, on
November 12, 2019, we published in the
Federal Register (84 FR 60998) a revised
proposed rule, and we accepted
comments on our proposed revisions for
30 days, ending December 12, 2019.
Taken together, our publications, the
November 28, 2018, proposed rule, as
revised by the November 12, 2019,
revised proposed rule, include all the

How is the List of Migratory Birds
organized?
The species are listed in two formats
to suit the needs of different segments
of the public: Alphabetically in 50 CFR
10.13(c)(1) and taxonomically in 50 CFR
10.13(c)(2). In the alphabetical listing,
species are listed by common (English)
group names, with the scientific name
of each species following the English
group name. This format, similar to that
used in modern telephone directories, is
most useful to members of the lay
public. In the taxonomic listing, species
are listed in phylogenetic sequence by
scientific name, with the English name
following the scientific name. To help
clarify species relationships, we also list
the higher-level taxonomic categories of
Order, Family, and Subfamily. This
format follows the sequence adopted by

United States or U.S. territories.
What species are not protected by the
Migratory Bird Treaty Act?
Summary of Comments and Responses
The MBTA does not apply to:
(1) Nonnative species introduced into
the United States or U.S. territories by
means of intentional or unintentional
human assistance that belong to families
or groups covered by the Canadian,
Mexican, or Russian Conventions.
Elsewhere in today’s Federal Register,
we publish the revised list of nonnative
bird species that are not protected under
the MBTA. Note, though, that native
species introduced into parts of the
United States where they are not native
are still protected under the MBTA
regardless of where they occur in the
United States or U.S. territories (e.g.,
cattle egrets in Hawaii).
(2) Species native or nonnative to the
United States or U.S. territories that
either belong to families or groups not
referred to in the Canada, Mexico, and
Russia Conventions or are not included
by species name in the Japan
Convention. This includes the
Tinamidae (tinamous), Megapodiidae
(megapodes), Cracidae (chachalacas),
Odontophoridae (New World quail),
Phasianidae (grouse, ptarmigan, and
turkeys), Pteroclidae (sandgrouse),
Heliornithidae (finfoots), Burhinidae
(thick-knees), Glareolidae (pratincoles),
Todidae (todies), Psittacidae (parrots),
Psittaculidae (Old World parrots),
Meliphagidae (honeyeaters), Dicruridae
(drongos), Monarchidae (monarchs),
Pycnonotidae (bulbuls), Scotocercidae
(bush warblers and allies), Zosteropidae
(white-eyes), Sturnidae (starlings,
except as listed in Japanese treaty),
Ploceidae (weavers), Estrildidae
(estrildid finches), and Passeridae (Old

On November 28, 2018, we published
in the Federal Register (83 FR 61288) a
proposed rule to revise the list of
migratory birds at 50 CFR 10.13; we
accepted public comments on the
proposed rule for 60 days, ending
January 28, 2019. We received eight
comments in response to the proposed
rule; seven were from private
individuals, one was from an
organization. Subsequently, on
November 12, 2019, we published in the
Federal Register (84 FR 60998) a revised
proposed rule, and we accepted
comments on our proposed revisions for
30 days, ending December 12, 2019. We
received two comments in response to
the revised proposed rule; one was from
a private individual, one was from an
organization. The following text
discusses the substantive comments we
received and provides our responses.
Comment (1): One individual
requested that the list be available in a
more user-friendly format.
Response: As noted above, in the
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), the
list is provided in two formats for
different needs. One format is ordered
alphabetically by group (English) name
and the other is in taxonomic order. For
informational purposes only, we also
provide a downloadable list online at
https://www.fws.gov/birds/
management/managed-species/
migratory-bird-treaty-act-protectedspecies.php, in a spreadsheet format
that includes multiple fields to allow for
easy sorting and searching for users
comfortable working with this format.
Comment (2): One individual
requested that we clarify why we are
adding to the List the 16 species that we

say qualify for protection by the MBTA
but have not been added previously.
Response: For this update, the Service
reviewed previously excluded AOS
taxonomic updates using contemporary
scientific literature to make its
determinations. For species that we are
adding based on evidence of natural
distribution in the United States or U.S.
territories, the Service reviewed
historical scientific literature prompted
by recommendations made by Service
staff with ornithological expertise and
knowledge of species’ natural
distribution.
Comment (3): One individual
commented on the importance of
updating the List of Migratory Birds for
the public to be informed of what
species are protected and to provide
clarification about the taxonomy of
species.
Response: The Service agrees that it is
important to maintain a current List of
Migratory Birds that reflects the best
available science and can inform the
American public of the species that are
protected by the MBTA.
Comment (4): One commenter made
the following comments:
D The proposed action of the Service
implicates the Just Compensation
Clause of the Fifth Amendment; as a
result, the action is not in compliance
with Executive Order 12630 as it has
significant takings implications.
D The Service has provided the public
with no meaningful opportunity to
comment due to incorrect citations.
D The Service has provided the public
with no meaningful opportunity to
comment because the correct citations
are conclusory summations without
details relating to the factual
determinations.
D The Service has unlawfully
delegated its decision-making authority
to a private organization.
D The Service is unlawfully applying
the MBTA by misinterpreting the plain
language meaning of the term
‘‘occurring.’’
Response: Regarding the first bullet,
there are no takings implications
stemming from this rulemaking. Under
50 CFR 21.2, migratory birds that are
lawfully acquired prior to the effective
date of Federal protection under the
MBTA (in this case, their addition to the
List of Migratory Birds at 50 CFR 10.13)
may continue to be possessed or
transported without a permit. However,
50 CFR 21.2 prohibits import, export,
purchase, sale, barter, or offer for
purchase, sale, or barter of those
species. The Supreme Court held in
Andrus v. Allard, 444 U.S. 51, 65–68
(1979), that the prohibitions in 50 CFR
21.2 do not amount to a regulatory
VerDate Sep<11>2014
19:00 Apr 15, 2020
Jkt 250001
taking that requires compensation under
the Just Compensation Clause of the
Fifth Amendment.
Regarding the second bullet, we
apologize for the incorrect citations in
the November 28, 2018, proposed rule;
they were corrected and described
individually in the November 12, 2019,
revised proposed rule, for which we
accepted public comment for 30 days,
and they are correct in this final rule.
Regarding the third and fourth bullets,
which we combine because they are
interrelated with regard to the process
the Service follows for determining
species protected by the MBTA, the
Service must rely on accepted scientific
authorities and best available science
when feasible. The Service has
determined that the checklist published
by the AOS is the best available science
and a primary resource from which to
reference updates in taxonomy and
natural distribution for the reasons
outlined above under What Scientific
Authorities Are Used to Amend the List
of Migratory Birds? The Service reviews
and makes its own determinations for
inclusion and updates to the list of
protected migratory bird species, as
evidenced by the Service not
recognizing ackling Gogose, Branta
hutchinsii, as a distinct species for
protection until this update when the
AOU made this determination in its
2004 supplement (see our response to
comments in 78 FR 65844, November 1,
2013, at p. 78 FR 65849). Copies of the
AOS checklist and supplements are
publicly available, and these
publications cite published resources
used in the committee deliberations that
are also considered by the Service for
this rulemaking. Persons wishing to
obtain more information about
deliberations and evidence used by the
AOS in their determinations should
contact AOS directly. The Service also
solicits public comments through a
proposed rule when we make revisions
to the list of protected species to obtain
any additional information the public
wishes to provide to aid us in our
decision-making.
Regarding the fifth bullet, the use of
the word ‘‘occurring’’ is ambiguous in
the legislative history, and there is no
evidence that Congress was concerned
with the number of records
documenting a species’ natural
occurrence in the United States or U.S.
Territories. There is also no established
or accepted scientific process to
determine a species is occurring in the
United States or U.S. Territories based
on an undefined threshold number of
documented records. A single
documented, reviewed, and accepted
record of natural occurrence in the
PO 00000

United States or U.S. Territories is thus
the threshold to qualify a species for
protection by the MBTA.
Required Determinations
Regulatory Planning and Review
Executive Order (E.O.) 12866 provides
that the Office of Information and
Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) in the Office
of Management and Budget will review
all significant rules. OIRA has
determined that this rule is not
significant.
E.O. 13563 reaffirms the principles of
E.O. 12866, while calling for
improvements in the nation’s regulatory
system to promote predictability, to
reduce uncertainty, and to use the best,
most innovative, and least burdensome
tools for achieving regulatory ends. E.O.
13563 directs agencies to consider
regulatory approaches that reduce
burdens and maintain flexibility and
freedom of choice for the public where
these approaches are relevant, feasible,
and consistent with regulatory
objectives. E.O. 13563 emphasizes
further that regulations must be based
on the best available science and that
the rulemaking process must allow for
public participation and an open
exchange of ideas. We have developed
this rule in a manner consistent with
these requirements.
Executive Order 13771—Reducing
Regulation and Controlling Regulatory
Costs
This rule is not an Executive Order
(E.O.) 13771 (82 FR 9339, February 3,
2017) regulatory action because this rule
is not significant under E.O. 12866.
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601
et seq.)
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., as amended by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act (SBREFA) of 1996 (5 U.S.C.
804(2)), whenever an agency is required
to publish a notice of rulemaking for
any proposed or final rule, it must
prepare and make available for public
comment a regulatory flexibility
analysis that describes the effect of the
rule on small entities (i.e., small
businesses, small organizations, and
small government jurisdictions).
However, no regulatory flexibility
analysis is required if the head of an
agency certifies the rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
SBREFA amended the Regulatory
Flexibility Act to require Federal
agencies to provide the statement of the
factual basis for certifying that a rule
will not have a significant economic
E:\FR\FM\16APR2.SGM

impact on a substantial number of small
entities. We have examined this rule’s
potential effects on small entities as
required by the Regulatory Flexibility
Act, and have determined that this
action will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities. This rule is an
administrative action to update the list
of migratory bird species protected
under the Conventions. Consequently,
we certify that this rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities;
therefore, a regulatory flexibility
analysis is not required.
This rule is not a major rule under
SBREFA (5 U.S.C. 804(2)). It will not
have a significant impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
a. This rule will not have an annual
effect on the economy of $100 million
or more.
b. This rule will not cause a major
increase in costs or prices for
consumers, individual industries,
Federal, State, or local government
agencies, or geographic regions.
c. This rule will not have significant
adverse effects on competition,
employment, investment, productivity,
innovation, or the ability of U.S.-based
enterprises to compete with foreignbased enterprises.
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with RULES2
In accordance with the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act (2 U.S.C. 1501 et
seq.), we have determined the following:
a. This rule will not ‘‘significantly or
uniquely’’ affect small governments. A
small government agency plan is not
required. This rule is an administrative
action to update the list of migratory
bird species protected under the
Conventions; it will not affect small
government activities in any significant
way.
b. This rule will not produce a
Federal mandate of $100 million or
greater in any year; i.e., it is not a
‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under
the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
Federalism
This rule does not have sufficient
Federalism effects to warrant
preparation of a federalism summary
impact statement under Executive Order
13132. It does not interfere with the
States’ ability to manage themselves or
their funds. No significant economic
impacts are expected to result from the
updating of the list of migratory bird
species.
Civil Justice Reform
In accordance with Executive Order
12988, the Office of the Solicitor has
determined that this rule does not
unduly burden the judicial system and
meets the requirements of sections 3(a)
and 3(b)(2) of the Order.
Paperwork Reduction Act
This rule does not contain
information collection requirements,
and a submission to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) is not required.
We may not conduct or sponsor and you
are not required to respond to a
collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA)
Given that the revision of 50 CFR
10.13 is strictly administrative in nature
and will have no or minor
environmental effects, it is categorically
excluded from further NEPA
requirements (43 CFR 46.210(i)).
Takings
Endangered Species Act (ESA)
Of the species on the List of Migratory
Birds, 102 species, subspecies, or
distinct population segments are also
listed as endangered or threatened
under section 4 of the ESA of 1973, as
amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). No
legal complications arise from the dual
listing as the two lists are developed
under separate authorities and for
different purposes. Because this rule is
strictly administrative in nature, it has
no effect on endangered or threatened
species. Thus, it does not require
consultation under section 7 of the ESA.
Under Executive Order 12630, this
rule does not have significant takings
implications. While certain activities
that were previously unregulated will
now be regulated, possession and
transport of migratory bird species
acquired prior to being added to the List
of Migratory Birds in this rulemaking
will remain unregulated under Federal
law. Therefore, a takings implication
assessment is not required.
Government-to-Government
Relationship With Tribes
In accordance with the President’s
memorandum of April 29, 1994,
‘‘Government-to-Government Relations
with Native American tribal
Governments’’ (59 FR 22951), Executive
Order 13175, and 512 DM 2, we have
evaluated potential effects on federally
recognized Indian tribes and have
determined that there are no potential

effects. The revisions to existing
regulations in this rule are purely
administrative in nature and do not
interfere with the tribes’ ability to
manage themselves or their funds or to
regulate migratory bird activities on
tribal lands.
Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use
(Executive Order 13211)
On May 18, 2001, the President issued
Executive Order 13211 addressing
regulations that significantly affect
energy supply, distribution, or use.
Executive Order 13211 requires agencies
to prepare Statements of Energy Effects
when undertaking certain actions.
Because this rule will only affect the
listing of protected species in the United
States, it is not a significant regulatory
action under Executive Order 12866,
and does not significantly affect energy
supplies, distribution, or use. Therefore,
this action is not a significant energy
action and no Statement of Energy
Effects is required.

General Provisions; Revised List of Migratory Birds
AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), revise the
List of Migratory Birds protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act
(MBTA) by both adding and removing species. Reasons for the changes to
the list include adding species based on new taxonomy and new evidence
of natural occurrence in the United States or U.S. territories,
removing species no longer known to occur within the United States or
U.S. territories, and changing names to conform to accepted use. The
net increase of 67 species (75 added and 8 removed) will bring the
total number of species protected by the MBTA to 1,093. We regulate the
taking, possession, transportation, sale, purchase, barter,
exportation, and importation of migratory birds. An accurate and up-to-
date list of species protected by the MBTA is essential for public
notification and regulatory purposes.
DATES: This rule is effective May 18, 2020.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Eric L. Kershner, Chief of the Branch
of Conservation, Permits, and Regulations; Division of Migratory Bird
Management; U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service; MS: MB; 5275 Leesburg Pike,
Falls Church, VA 22041-3803; (703) 358-2376.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
What statutory authority does the service have for this rulemaking?
We have statutory authority and responsibility for enforcing the
MBTA (16 U.S.C. 703-712), the Fish and Wildlife Improvement Act of 1978
(16 U.S.C. 742l), and the Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956 (16 U.S.C.
742a-j). The MBTA implements Conventions between the United States and
four neighboring countries for the protection of migratory birds, as
follows:
(1) Canada: Convention between the United States and Great Britain
[on behalf of Canada] for the Protection of Migratory Birds, August 16,
1916, 39 Stat. 1702 (T.S. No. 628), as amended by Protocol between the
Government of the United States and the Government of Canada Amending
the 1916 Convention between the United Kingdom and the United States of
America for the Protection of Migratory Birds, Sen. Treaty Doc. 104-28
(December 14, 1995);
(2) Mexico: Convention between the United States and Mexico for the
Protection of Migratory Birds and Game Mammals, February 7, 1936, 50
Stat. 1311 (T.S. No. 912), as amended by Protocol with Mexico amending
Convention for Protection of Migratory Birds and Game Mammals, Sen.
Treaty Doc. 105-26 (May 5, 1997);
(3) Japan: Convention between the Government of the United States
of America and the Government of Japan for the Protection of Migratory
Birds and Birds in Danger of Extinction, and Their Environment, March
4, 1972, 25 U.S.T. 3329 (T.I.A.S. No. 7990); and
(4) Russia: Convention between the United States of America and the
Union of Soviet Socialist Republics Concerning the Conservation of
Migratory Birds and Their Environment (Russia), November 19, 1976, 29
U.S.T. 4647 (T.I.A.S. No. 9073).
What is the purpose of this rulemaking?
Our purpose is to inform the public of the species protected by the
MBTA and its implementing regulations. These regulations are found in
Title 50, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), parts 10, 20, and 21. We
regulate the taking, possession, transportation, sale, purchase,
barter, exportation, and importation of migratory birds. An accurate
and up-to-date list of species protected by the MBTA is essential for
notifying the public of regulatory protections.
Why is the amendment of the List of Migratory Birds necessary?
The amendments we are adopting in this final rule are needed to:
(1) Add 16 species that qualify for protection under the MBTA;
(2) Correct the spelling of 3 species names on the alphabetized
list;
(3) Correct the spelling of 3 species names on the taxonomic list;
(4) Add 30 species based on new distributional records documenting
their natural occurrence in the United States or U.S. territories since
2010;
(5) Add one species moved from a family that was not protected to a
family protected under the MBTA as a result of taxonomic changes;
(6) Add 28 species newly recognized as a result of recent taxonomic
changes;
(7) Remove 8 species not known to occur within the boundaries of
the United States or U.S. territories as a result of recent taxonomic
changes;
(8) Change the common (English) names of 43 species to conform to
accepted use; and
(9) Change the scientific names of 135 species to conform to
accepted use.
The List of Migratory Birds (50 CFR 10.13) was last revised on
November 1, 2013 (78 FR 65844). The amendments in this rule were
necessitated by nine published supplements to the 7th (1998) edition of
the American Ornithologists' Union (AOU, now recognized as the American
Ornithological Society (AOS)) Check-list of North American Birds (AOU
2011, AOU 2012, AOU 2013, AOU 2014, AOU 2015, AOU 2016, AOS 2017, AOS
2018, and AOS 2019) and the 2017 publication of the Clements Checklist
of Birds of the World (Clements et al. 2017).
What scientific authorities are used to amend the List of Migratory
Birds?
Although bird names (common and scientific) are relatively stable,
staying current with standardized use is necessary to avoid confusion
in communications. In making our determinations, we primarily relied on
the AOS's Checklist of North American birds (AOU 1998), as amended
annually (AOU 1999 through 2016, AOS 2017 through 2019), on matters of
taxonomy, nomenclature, and the sequence of species and other higher
taxonomic categories (Orders, Families, Subfamilies) for species that
occur in North America. The AOU (now AOS) Checklist of North American
Birds (Checklist), developed by the AOU Committee on Classification and
Nomenclature, has been the recognized taxonomic authority for North
American birds since publication of the first edition of the Checklist
in 1886. The committee compiles the taxonomic foundation for
ornithology in North America; evaluating and codifying the latest
scientific developments in the systematics, classification,
nomenclature, and distribution of North American birds. Thus, the AOS's
Checklist represents the best information available for developing the
North American component of this List of Migratory Birds. In keeping
with the increasing numbers of study areas on which taxonomy relies,
the committee incorporates expertise in phylogenetics, genomics,
vocalizations, morphology, behavior, and geographical distribution, as
well as general ornithological knowledge. The AOS Checklist contains
all bird species that have occurred in North America from the Arctic
through Panama, including the West Indies and the Hawaiian Islands, and
includes
[[Page 21283]]
distributional information for each species, which specifies whether
the species is known to occur in the United States. The committee also
keeps and updates a list of species known to occur in the United
States.
For the species that occur outside the geographic area covered by
the AOS Checklist, we relied primarily on the Clements Checklist of
Birds of the World (Clements Checklist) (Clements et al. 2007), the
Clements Checklist 2017 installment of updates and corrections
(Clements et al. 2017), and other peer-reviewed literature where
appropriate. The Clements Checklist is a list of all known bird species
in the world and is maintained and updated annually by the Cornell
Laboratory of Ornithology (CLO). The CLO relies on different regional
ornithological authorities to compile the list, using the AOS for the
western hemisphere. Taxonomy and nomenclature are the primary focus of
the Clements Checklist, but range descriptions are maintained and
updated based on the best available information and do not include
records of vagrancy.
Although the Service primarily relies on the above sources, when
informed taxonomic opinion or documented natural distribution is
inconsistent or controversial, the Service evaluates available
published and unpublished information and comes to its own conclusions
regarding the validity of taxa and records of distribution.
What criteria are used to identify individual species protected by the
MBTA?
A species qualifies for protection under the MBTA by meeting one or
more of the following criteria:
(1) It occurs in the United States or U.S. territories as the
result of natural biological or ecological processes and is currently,
or was previously listed as, a species or part of a family protected by
one of the four international treaties or their amendments. Any species
that occurs in the United States or U.S. territories solely as a result
of intentional or unintentional human-assisted introduction does not
qualify for the MBTA list, regardless of whether the family the species
belongs to is listed in any of the treaties, unless:
It was native to the United States or its territories and
extant in 1918;
It was extirpated after 1918 throughout its range in the
United States and its territories; and
After such extirpation, it was reintroduced in the United
States or its territories as part of a program carried out by a Federal
agency.
(2) Revised taxonomy results in it being newly split from a species
that was previously on the list, and the new species occurs in the
United States or U.S. territories as the result of natural biological
or ecological processes. If a newly recognized native species is
considered extinct (following the classification of the AOS) or, for
species not covered by the AOS, the Clements Checklist or peer-reviewed
literature), that species will still be included if either of the
following criteria apply:
The species resembles extant species included in the list
that may be affected by trade if the species is not included; or
Not including the species may create difficulties
implementing the MBTA and its underlying Conventions.
(3) New evidence exists for its natural occurrence in the United
States or U.S. territories resulting from natural distributional
changes and the species occurs in a protected family. Records must be
documented, accepted, and published by the AOS committee. For the U.S.
Pacific territories that fall outside the geographic scope of the AOS
and for which there is no identified ornithological authority, new
evidence of a species' natural occurrence will be based on the Clements
Checklist and then published peer-reviewed literature, in that order.
In accordance with the Migratory Bird Treaty Reform Act of 2004
(MBTRA) (Pub. L. 108-447, 118 Stat. 2809, 3071-72), we only include
migratory bird species that are native to the United States or U.S.
territories. A native migratory bird species is one that is present as
a result of natural biological or ecological processes. The list at 50
CFR 10.13 does not include nonnative species that occur in the United
States or U.S. territories solely as a result of intentional or
unintentional human-assisted introduction(s). Elsewhere in today's
Federal Register, we publish a list of nonnative bird species that are
not protected under the MBTA.
How do the changes affect the List of Migratory Birds?
Several taxonomic changes were made at the Order and Family level
by the AOS since our 2013 publication of the list (78 FR 65844;
November 1, 2013). These changes affect the inclusion and taxonomic
order of species on this list. Specifically, the Order Cathartiformes
(New World vultures) was split from the Accipitriformes (diurnal birds
of prey). Cathartiformes now includes the Family Cathartidae (vultures
and California Condor, Gymnogyps californianus). At the Family level,
the Oceanitidae (southern storm-petrels) was split from the
Hydrobatidae (northern storm-petrels), the Tityridae (becards and
tityras) was split from the Tyrannidae (tyrant flycatchers), the
Passerellidae (towhees, sparrows, and juncos) was split from the
Emberizidae (buntings), and the Megaluridae (Locustella warblers) was
renamed to Locustellidae. The Ptilogonatidae (silky-flycatchers) was
renamed to the Ptiliogonatidae. The Nesospingidae (Puerto Rican
Tanager) and the Spindalidae (Spindalis genus) were split from the
Thraupidae (tanagers). The yellow-breasted chat was split from the
Parulidae (wood-warblers) and placed into Icteriidae (chats). Within
the Scolopacidae (sandpipers, phalaropes, and allies), new Subfamilies
were created: The curlews were moved to Numeniinae; the godwits to
Limosinae; and small sandpipers to Arenariinae and larger sandpipers to
Tringinae, including phalaropes whose previous Subfamily Phalaropodinae
was removed. Within the Accipitridae (hawks, eagles, and kites), new
Subfamilies were created: The White-tailed Kite was move to Elaninae,
Hook-billed and Swallow-tailed Kite were moved to Gypaetinae, and all
other members of the family were moved to Accipitrinae. Within the
Icteridae (blackbirds), new Subfamilies were created: Yellow-headed
blackbird was moved to Xanthocephalinae; bobolink was moved to
Dolichonychinae; meadowlarks were moved to Sturnellinae; orioles were
moved to Icterinae; and blackbirds, cowbirds, and grackles were moved
to Agelaiinae. In the Falconidae (caracaras and falcons), collared
forest-falcon was moved into the new Subfamily Herpetotherinae, and the
Subfamily Caracarinae was removed, with crested caracara moved to the
Subfamily Falconinae. In the Fringillidae (finches and allies), the
Hawaiian fringillids were moved from the Subfamily Drepanidinae to
Carduelinae. The Old World flycatchers in the Turdidae (thrushes) were
moved to the Muscicapidae (Old World flycatchers). Bananaquit was moved
from the Coerebidae (a family not protected by MBTA) to the Thraupidae
(tanagers and allies), which is a family protected by the MBTA. All
other tanagers were also moved from the Emberizidae (sparrows) to the
Thraupidae. Within Thraupidae, the seedeaters were moved into the
Subfamily Sporophilinae, and bananaquit, grassquits, and bullfinches
were moved into the Subfamily Coerebinae.
All species previously receiving protection under the MBTA that
have
[[Page 21284]]
been moved to newly created Families continue to be protected under the
MBTA.
The amendments affect a total of 252 species; 75 additions, 8
removals, and 178 name changes covering 169 species (9 species had both
scientific and common name changes). The result is a net addition of 67
species to the List of Migratory Birds, increasing the number of
species on the list from 1,026 to 1,093. Of the 75 species that we add
to the list, 28 were previously covered under the MBTA as members of
the same species (conspecific) of listed species. These amendments can
be logically arranged in the following nine categories:
(1) Add 16 species that qualify for protection by the MBTA but have
not been added previously. The addition of these species is the result

(7) Remove eight species based on revised taxonomic treatments,
either because a species is taxonomically merged with another species,
either on or off the list; a species previously on the list is
taxonomically split into multiple species and the new species is not
known to occur within the United States or U.S. territories; or the
species is considered extinct (following the classification of the AOS
or, for species not covered by the AOS, the Clements Checklist or peer-
reviewed literature) unless any of the following criteria apply: It is
protected under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), or the Convention on International Trade in
Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES; 27 U.S.T. 1087); it
resembles extant species included in the list that may be affected by
its removal; or its removal would create difficulties implementing the
MBTA and its underlying Conventions. In each case, we reference the
publication supporting these changes:
Thayer's Gull, Larus thayeri, now a subspecies of Iceland Gull,
Larus glaucoides (AOS 2017);
Great-winged Petrel, Pterodroma macroptera (AOS 2019);

(8) Revise the common (English) names of 43 species to conform to
the most recent nomenclatural treatment as described in AOU
publications 2011 through 2017, AOS 2018 and 2019 and Clements et al.
(2017). Hawaiian species names are modified to official Hawaiian
spelling, following the Pukui-Elbert Hawaiian Dictionary, adding the
diacritical marks to the common names where applicable. The Government
Publishing Office Style Manual requires the words Hawaii and Kauai to
be spelled without the diacritical mark. These revisions do not change
the protective status of any of these taxa, only the names by which
they are known. In each case, the update is described in the table,
below.
(9) Revise the scientific names of 135 species to conform to the
most recent nomenclatural treatment as described in AOU publications
2011 through 2017, AOS 2018 and 2019 and Clements et al. (2017). These
revisions do not change the protective status of any of these taxa,
only the names by which they are known. In each case, the update is
described in the table, below.
Table of name changes, as described in categories 8 and 9, above,
follows. Table is organized following AOS (2019) taxonomic order. The
relevant AOS publication is provided. Hawaiian common name changes are
indicated with a (--).

How do the changes adopted in this rule differ from those described in
the proposed rule?
On November 28, 2018, we published in the Federal Register (83 FR
61288) a proposed rule to revise the list of migratory birds at 50 CFR
10.13; we accepted public comments on the proposed rule for 60 days,
ending January 28, 2019. Subsequently, on November 12, 2019, we
published in the Federal Register (84 FR 60998) a revised proposed
rule, and we accepted comments on our proposed revisions for 30 days,
ending December 12, 2019. Taken together, our publications, the
November 28, 2018, proposed rule, as revised by the November 12, 2019,
revised proposed rule, include all the changes adopted in this rule
with one exception: On the taxonomic list, we are correcting the
scientific name of the Puerto Rican bullfinch from Loxigilla
portoricensis to Melopyrrha portoricensis.
How is the List of Migratory Birds organized?
The species are listed in two formats to suit the needs of
different segments of the public: Alphabetically in 50 CFR 10.13(c)(1)
and taxonomically in 50 CFR 10.13(c)(2). In the alphabetical listing,
species are listed by common (English) group names, with the scientific
name of each species following the English group name. This format,
similar to that used in modern telephone directories, is most useful to
members of the lay public. In the taxonomic listing, species are listed
in phylogenetic sequence by scientific name, with the English name
following the scientific name. To help clarify species relationships,
we also list the higher-level taxonomic categories of Order, Family,
and Subfamily. This format follows the sequence adopted by the AOS
(1998, 2019) and is most useful to ornithologists and other scientists.
What species are not protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act?
The MBTA does not apply to:
(1) Nonnative species introduced into the United States or U.S.
territories by means of intentional or unintentional human assistance
that belong to families or groups covered by the Canadian, Mexican, or
Russian Conventions. Elsewhere in today's Federal Register, we publish
the revised list of nonnative bird species that are not protected under
the MBTA. Note, though, that native species introduced into parts of
the United States where they are not native are still protected under
the MBTA regardless of where they occur in the United States or U.S.
territories (e.g., cattle egrets in Hawaii).
(2) Species native or nonnative to the United States or U.S.
territories that either belong to families or groups not referred to in
the Canada, Mexico, and Russia Conventions or are not included by
species name in the Japan Convention. This includes the Tinamidae
(tinamous), Megapodiidae (megapodes), Cracidae (chachalacas),
Odontophoridae (New World quail), Phasianidae (grouse, ptarmigan, and
turkeys), Pteroclidae (sandgrouse), Heliornithidae (finfoots),
Burhinidae (thick-knees), Glareolidae (pratincoles), Todidae (todies),
Psittacidae (parrots), Psittaculidae (Old World parrots), Meliphagidae
(honeyeaters), Dicruridae (drongos), Monarchidae (monarchs),
Pycnonotidae (bulbuls), Scotocercidae (bush warblers and allies),
Zosteropidae (white-eyes), Sturnidae (starlings, except as listed in
Japanese treaty), Ploceidae (weavers), Estrildidae (estrildid finches),
and Passeridae (Old World sparrows, including house or English
sparrow), as well as numerous other families not represented in the
United States or U.S. territories.
Summary of Comments and Responses
On November 28, 2018, we published in the Federal Register (83 FR
61288) a proposed rule to revise the list of migratory birds at 50 CFR
10.13; we accepted public comments on the proposed rule for 60 days,
ending January 28, 2019. We received eight comments in response to the
proposed rule; seven were from private individuals, one was from an
organization. Subsequently, on November 12, 2019, we published in the
Federal Register (84 FR 60998) a revised proposed rule, and we accepted
comments on our proposed revisions for 30 days, ending December 12,
2019. We received two comments in response to the revised proposed
rule; one was from a private individual, one was from an organization.
The following text discusses the substantive comments we received and
provides our responses.
Comment (1): One individual requested that the list be available in
a more user-friendly format.
Response: As noted above, in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR),
the list is provided in two formats for different needs. One format is
ordered alphabetically by group (English) name and the other is in
taxonomic order. For informational purposes only, we also provide a
downloadable list online at https://www.fws.gov/birds/management/managed-species/migratory-bird-treaty-act-protected-species.php, in a
spreadsheet format that includes multiple fields to allow for easy
sorting and searching for users comfortable working with this format.
Comment (2): One individual requested that we clarify why we are
adding to the List the 16 species that we
[[Page 21289]]
say qualify for protection by the MBTA but have not been added
previously.
Response: For this update, the Service reviewed previously excluded
AOS taxonomic updates using contemporary scientific literature to make
its determinations. For species that we are adding based on evidence of
natural distribution in the United States or U.S. territories, the
Service reviewed historical scientific literature prompted by
recommendations made by Service staff with ornithological expertise and
knowledge of species' natural distribution.
Comment (3): One individual commented on the importance of updating
the List of Migratory Birds for the public to be informed of what
species are protected and to provide clarification about the taxonomy
of species.
Response: The Service agrees that it is important to maintain a
current List of Migratory Birds that reflects the best available
science and can inform the American public of the species that are
protected by the MBTA.
Comment (4): One commenter made the following comments:
[ssquf] The proposed action of the Service implicates the Just
Compensation Clause of the Fifth Amendment; as a result, the action is
not in compliance with Executive Order 12630 as it has significant
takings implications.
[ssquf] The Service has provided the public with no meaningful
opportunity to comment due to incorrect citations.
[ssquf] The Service has provided the public with no meaningful
opportunity to comment because the correct citations are conclusory
summations without details relating to the factual determinations.
[ssquf] The Service has unlawfully delegated its decision-making
authority to a private organization.
[ssquf] The Service is unlawfully applying the MBTA by
misinterpreting the plain language meaning of the term ``occurring.''
Response: Regarding the first bullet, there are no takings
implications stemming from this rulemaking. Under 50 CFR 21.2,
migratory birds that are lawfully acquired prior to the effective date
of Federal protection under the MBTA (in this case, their addition to
the List of Migratory Birds at 50 CFR 10.13) may continue to be
possessed or transported without a permit. However, 50 CFR 21.2
prohibits import, export, purchase, sale, barter, or offer for
purchase, sale, or barter of those species. The Supreme Court held in
Andrus v. Allard, 444 U.S. 51, 65-68 (1979), that the prohibitions in
50 CFR 21.2 do not amount to a regulatory taking that requires
compensation under the Just Compensation Clause of the Fifth Amendment.
Regarding the second bullet, we apologize for the incorrect
citations in the November 28, 2018, proposed rule; they were corrected
and described individually in the November 12, 2019, revised proposed
rule, for which we accepted public comment for 30 days, and they are
correct in this final rule.
Regarding the third and fourth bullets, which we combine because
they are interrelated with regard to the process the Service follows
for determining species protected by the MBTA, the Service must rely on
accepted scientific authorities and best available science when
feasible. The Service has determined that the checklist published by
the AOS is the best available science and a primary resource from which
to reference updates in taxonomy and natural distribution for the
reasons outlined above under What Scientific Authorities Are Used to
Amend the List of Migratory Birds? The Service reviews and makes its
own determinations for inclusion and updates to the list of protected
migratory bird species, as evidenced by the Service not recognizing
ackling Gogose, Branta hutchinsii, as a distinct species for protection
until this update when the AOU made this determination in its 2004
supplement (see our response to comments in 78 FR 65844, November 1,
2013, at p. 78 FR 65849). Copies of the AOS checklist and supplements
are publicly available, and these publications cite published resources
used in the committee deliberations that are also considered by the
Service for this rulemaking. Persons wishing to obtain more information
about deliberations and evidence used by the AOS in their
determinations should contact AOS directly. The Service also solicits
public comments through a proposed rule when we make revisions to the
list of protected species to obtain any additional information the
public wishes to provide to aid us in our decision-making.
Regarding the fifth bullet, the use of the word ``occurring'' is
ambiguous in the legislative history, and there is no evidence that
Congress was concerned with the number of records documenting a
species' natural occurrence in the United States or U.S. Territories.
There is also no established or accepted scientific process to
determine a species is occurring in the United States or U.S.
Territories based on an undefined threshold number of documented
records. A single documented, reviewed, and accepted record of natural
occurrence in the United States or U.S. Territories is thus the
threshold to qualify a species for protection by the MBTA.
Required Determinations
Regulatory Planning and Review
Executive Order (E.O.) 12866 provides that the Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) in the Office of Management
and Budget will review all significant rules. OIRA has determined that
this rule is not significant.
E.O. 13563 reaffirms the principles of E.O. 12866, while calling
for improvements in the nation's regulatory system to promote
predictability, to reduce uncertainty, and to use the best, most
innovative, and least burdensome tools for achieving regulatory ends.
E.O. 13563 directs agencies to consider regulatory approaches that
reduce burdens and maintain flexibility and freedom of choice for the
public where these approaches are relevant, feasible, and consistent
with regulatory objectives. E.O. 13563 emphasizes further that
regulations must be based on the best available science and that the
rulemaking process must allow for public participation and an open
exchange of ideas. We have developed this rule in a manner consistent
with these requirements.
Executive Order 13771--Reducing Regulation and Controlling Regulatory
Costs
This rule is not an Executive Order (E.O.) 13771 (82 FR 9339,
February 3, 2017) regulatory action because this rule is not
significant under E.O. 12866.
Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.)
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., as
amended by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act
(SBREFA) of 1996 (5 U.S.C. 804(2)), whenever an agency is required to
publish a notice of rulemaking for any proposed or final rule, it must
prepare and make available for public comment a regulatory flexibility
analysis that describes the effect of the rule on small entities (i.e.,
small businesses, small organizations, and small government
jurisdictions). However, no regulatory flexibility analysis is required
if the head of an agency certifies the rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
SBREFA amended the Regulatory Flexibility Act to require Federal
agencies to provide the statement of the factual basis for certifying
that a rule will not have a significant economic
[[Page 21290]]
impact on a substantial number of small entities. We have examined this
rule's potential effects on small entities as required by the
Regulatory Flexibility Act, and have determined that this action will
not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
entities. This rule is an administrative action to update the list of
migratory bird species protected under the Conventions. Consequently,
we certify that this rule will not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities; therefore, a regulatory
flexibility analysis is not required.
This rule is not a major rule under SBREFA (5 U.S.C. 804(2)). It
will not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small
entities.
a. This rule will not have an annual effect on the economy of $100
million or more.
b. This rule will not cause a major increase in costs or prices for
consumers, individual industries, Federal, State, or local government
agencies, or geographic regions.
c. This rule will not have significant adverse effects on
competition, employment, investment, productivity, innovation, or the
ability of U.S.-based enterprises to compete with foreign-based
enterprises.
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
In accordance with the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (2 U.S.C. 1501
et seq.), we have determined the following:
a. This rule will not ``significantly or uniquely'' affect small
governments. A small government agency plan is not required. This rule
is an administrative action to update the list of migratory bird
species protected under the Conventions; it will not affect small
government activities in any significant way.
b. This rule will not produce a Federal mandate of $100 million or
greater in any year; i.e., it is not a ``significant regulatory
action'' under the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
Takings
Under Executive Order 12630, this rule does not have significant
takings implications. While certain activities that were previously
unregulated will now be regulated, possession and transport of
migratory bird species acquired prior to being added to the List of
Migratory Birds in this rulemaking will remain unregulated under
Federal law. Therefore, a takings implication assessment is not
required.
Federalism
This rule does not have sufficient Federalism effects to warrant
preparation of a federalism summary impact statement under Executive
Order 13132. It does not interfere with the States' ability to manage
themselves or their funds. No significant economic impacts are expected
to result from the updating of the list of migratory bird species.
Civil Justice Reform
In accordance with Executive Order 12988, the Office of the
Solicitor has determined that this rule does not unduly burden the
judicial system and meets the requirements of sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2)
of the Order.
Paperwork Reduction Act
This rule does not contain information collection requirements, and
a submission to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) is not
required. We may not conduct or sponsor and you are not required to
respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently
valid OMB control number.
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
Given that the revision of 50 CFR 10.13 is strictly administrative
in nature and will have no or minor environmental effects, it is
categorically excluded from further NEPA requirements (43 CFR
46.210(i)).
Endangered Species Act (ESA)
Of the species on the List of Migratory Birds, 102 species,
subspecies, or distinct population segments are also listed as
endangered or threatened under section 4 of the ESA of 1973, as amended
(16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). No legal complications arise from the dual
listing as the two lists are developed under separate authorities and
for different purposes. Because this rule is strictly administrative in
nature, it has no effect on endangered or threatened species. Thus, it
does not require consultation under section 7 of the ESA.
Government-to-Government Relationship With Tribes
In accordance with the President's memorandum of April 29, 1994,
``Government-to-Government Relations with Native American tribal
Governments'' (59 FR 22951), Executive Order 13175, and 512 DM 2, we
have evaluated potential effects on federally recognized Indian tribes
and have determined that there are no potential effects. The revisions
to existing regulations in this rule are purely administrative in
nature and do not interfere with the tribes' ability to manage
themselves or their funds or to regulate migratory bird activities on
tribal lands.
Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use (Executive Order 13211)
On May 18, 2001, the President issued Executive Order 13211
addressing regulations that significantly affect energy supply,
distribution, or use. Executive Order 13211 requires agencies to
prepare Statements of Energy Effects when undertaking certain actions.
Because this rule will only affect the listing of protected species in
the United States, it is not a significant regulatory action under
Executive Order 12866, and does not significantly affect energy
supplies, distribution, or use. Therefore, this action is not a
significant energy action and no Statement of Energy Effects is
required.
