Freedom of Information Act – Notice
For organizations, businesses, or individuals operating as a business (i.e., permittees not covered by the Privacy Act), we request that you identify any information that
should be considered privileged and confidential business information to allow the Service to meet its responsibilities under FOIA. Confidential business information
must be clearly marked "Business Confidential" at the top of the letter or page and each succeeding page and must be accompanied by a non-confidential summary of

Application Processing Fee
The fee to process an eagle nest take permit application is $300.00. This fee applies to new permit applications and permit renewals. The fee to process a substantive
amendment to an existing valid permit is $150.00. Substantive amendments are those that pertain to the purpose and conditions of the permit and are not purely
administrative. Administrative changes, such as updating name and address information, are required under 50 CFR 13.23(c), and such amendments do not require a fee.
Checks should be made payable to AU.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.@ The fee does not guarantee the issuance of a permit. It will not be refunded regardless of whether a
permit is issued, abandoned, or denied. We will not refund any application fee under any circumstances if we have processed the application. However, we may return the
application fee if you withdraw the application before we have significantly processed it. (50 CFR 13.11(d))
The application fee does not apply to any Federal, tribal, State, or local government agency or to any individual or institution acting on behalf of such agency for the
proposed activities.
