Exhibition of Migratory Birds and Eagles
This document advises the public that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service, or we) intends to gather information necessary to develop a proposed rule for the exhibition of migratory birds and eagles. We are furnishing this advance notice of proposed rulemaking to advise other agencies and the public of our intentions and obtain suggestions and information on the scope of issues to include in the rulemaking.
Regulatory Authorizations for Migratory Bird and Eagle Possession by the General Public, Educators, and Government Agencies
We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), propose to amend our regulations to revise current regulatory authorizations and add new regulatory authorizations for possession of migratory birds and eagles and other purposes. These proposed changes would more efficiently and appropriately authorize the general public, educators, and government agency employees to possess birds and eagles in certain specific situations while meeting our obligations under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act and the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. We also propose a change to the Airborne Hunting Act regulations to clarify what Federal authorizations may be used to comply with that statute.
Endangered and Threatened Wildlife and Plants; Enhancement of Survival Permit Application; Candidate Conservation Agreement With Assurances and Categorical Exclusion for the Greater Sage-Grouse; Morgan, Rich, Summit, and Weber Counties, Utah
We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), are announcing the availability of documents related to an application for an enhancement of survival permit (permit) under the Endangered Species Act. Farmland Reserve, Inc. (FRI) and AgReserves, Inc. (ARI) (collectively referred to as DLL) have applied for a permit associated with the implementation of a candidate conservation agreement with assurances (CCAA) for the greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) for the Deseret Land and Livestock (DLL Ranch) in Utah. The purpose of this CCAA is for the Service to join with the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources and DLL (collectively, the parties to this CCAA), to implement conservation measures for greater sage-grouse in a manner that is consistent with the Service's Policy on CCAAs and applicable Service regulations. The documents available for review and comment are the applicant's CCAA, which is part of the permit application, and our draft environmental action statement and low- effect screening form, which support a categorical exclusion under the National Environmental Policy Act. We invite comments from the public and Federal, Tribal, State, and local governments.
