Fish and Wildlife Service September 25, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Migratory Bird Permits; Revisions to Migratory Bird Import and Export Regulations
Document Number: E8-22516
Type: Rule
Date: 2008-09-25
Agency: Fish and Wildlife Service, Department of the Interior
We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, published a document in the Federal Register on August 13, 2008 that revised the regulations governing migratory bird permitting. That document inadvertently used the term ``migratory game birds'' in a way that contradicts the existing definition of that term elsewhere in our regulations. This document corrects the final regulations.

Date: 2008-09-25
Agency: Fish and Wildlife Service, Department of the Interior
This rule prescribes special late-season migratory bird hunting regulations for certain tribes on Federal Indian reservations, off-reservation trust lands, and ceded lands. This rule responds to tribal requests for U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (hereinafter Service or we) recognition of their authority to regulate hunting under established guidelines. This rule allows the establishment of season bag limits and, thus, harvest at levels compatible with populations and habitat conditions.
