Form 3-200-71 Eagle Take to Protect an Interest in a Particular Locali

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT A FEDERAL
PERMIT FOR EAGLE TAKE NECESSARY TO PROTECT AN
INTEREST IN A PARTICULAR LOCALITY
A Federal permit for non-purposeful take of eagles authorizes disturbance or other take of eagles where
the take is not the purpose of the activity and is necessary to protect an interest in a particular locality.
You should review Title 50 Parts 10, 13, and 22.26 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). You are
responsible for reviewing and understanding these regulations before you request and accept a
permit. These regulations can be found on our website at http://www.fws.gov/permits/ltr/ltr.html.
Below are questions and answers regarding some of the fundamentals of an eagle non-purposeful take
permit.
1. What is meant by “take” of eagles?
Under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, “take” is defined as “pursue, shoot, shoot at, poison,
wound, kill, capture, trap, collect, destroy, molest or disturb.” Most take authorized under this permit will
be in the form of disturbance. “Disturb” is defined in regulations as “to agitate or bother a bald or golden
eagle to a degree that causes, or is likely to cause, based on the best scientific information available: (1)
injury to an eagle, (2) a decrease in its productivity, by substantially interfering with normal breeding,
feeding, or sheltering behavior, or (3) nest abandonment, by substantially interfering with normal
breeding, feeding, or sheltering behavior.”
2. Can this permit be used for intentional take of eagles for any purposes?
No. This permit authorizes take only where the take cannot practicably be avoided in the course of an
otherwise lawful activity.
3. What species of eagles can be disturbed or otherwise taken under this permit?
This permit may authorize take of either species of eagles protected by the Bald and Golden Eagle
Protection Act (16 U.S.C. 668-668d): the bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) and the golden eagle
(Aquila chrysaetos).
4. Under what circumstances can eagles be taken under this type of permit?
The Eagle Act authorizes the Secretary to permit take of eagles “necessary for the protection of… other
interests in any particular locality.” This statutory language accommodates a broad spectrum of public
and private interests (such as utility infrastructure development and maintenance, road construction,
operation of airports, commercial or residential construction, resource recovery, recreational use, etc.) that
might “take” eagles as defined under the Eagle Act. However, in all cases, the take must be necessary to
protect the interest, meaning that the interest cannot be protected without taking eagles despite
implementation of all practicable measures to avoid and minimize the impact to eagles.
5. Is a person who follows the National Bald Eagle Management Guidelines exempt from the
requirement to obtain this permit?
No. The Guidelines are basic recommendations the Service has provided to help minimize the potential
for disturbing bald eagles. However, those recommendations are fairly generalized and do not address
every type of activity. Furthermore, variable on-site conditions, the temperament of individual eagles, and
other factors, make it impossible to predict outcomes with certainty. Each situation is different. An
activity that is generally assessed as likely to disturb eagles will not always disturb them, and the presence
of a number of variables may affect the likelihood that take will occur. Because the Eagle Act requires
that a permit be issued in order for any Bald Eagle take to be authorized, the Service cannot “exempt” any

3-200-71
REV 1/13

activity that meets the definition of a “take.” In addition, because the Management Guidelines were
developed primarily to reduce disturbance, they contain few measures for avoiding or reducing injury or
mortality.
6. Are post-activity monitoring and reporting required?
Depending on the magnitude of the anticipated disturbance, permittees may be required to provide basic
post-activity monitoring by determining whether the nest site, communal roost, or important foraging area
continues to be used by eagles for up to 3 years following completion of the activity for which the permit
was issued. Unless the activity is covered by a management plan that contains separate, adequate
monitoring protocols, permittees must submit an annual report containing all the information required by
Service Form 3-202-15.
7. What will the Service do with information gathered from the permittee monitoring?
The Service can use the information to help assess whether future activities may result in loss of one or
more eagles, a decrease in productivity of bald or golden eagles, and/or the permanent abandonment or
loss of a nest site, communal roost site, or important foraging area. This information will allow the
Service to refine recommendations in future versions of eagle management guidelines regarding buffer
distances, timing of activities, and other practices that minimize take of eagles. The data also may enable
the Service to adjust the number of annual permits available in a Service region.
8. What is a programmatic permit and when is it required?
Programmatic take is generally defined as take that is recurring and not in a specific, identifiable time
frame and/or location. The specific regulatory definition is “take that (1) is recurring, but not caused
solely by indirect effects, and (2) occurs over the long-term and/or in a location or locations that cannot
be specifically identified.”
Programmatic take permits may be issued to entities, such as electric utilities or transportation providers,
that may currently take eagles in the course of otherwise lawful activities but who can work with the
Service to develop and implement additional, exceptionally comprehensive measures (“advanced
conservation practices” or “ACPs”) to reduce take to the level where any remaining take is essentially
unavoidable. A programmatic take permit may also be issued to State and Federal agencies that take
eagles in the course of their routine operations if they adopt such advanced conservation measures. There
is no requirement that a permit be programmatic; it is an option that is available in some circumstances. A
programmatic permit can, and often will, cover other take in addition to programmatic take.
9. Will mitigation measures be required?
All permittees will be required to avoid and minimize the potential for take to the degree practicable, and
for programmatic permits, to the point where take is unavoidable. Additional compensatory mitigation
may be required for: (a) programmatic take and other multiple take authorizations; (b) disturbance
associated with the permanent loss of a breeding territory or important traditional communal roost site; or
(c) as necessary to off-set impacts to the local area population.
10. Does this permit authorize possession of eagles for any purpose?
No. This permit does not authorize collection of live or dead eagles. You must promptly notify the
Service of any eagle(s) found injured or dead at the activity site, regardless of whether the injury or death
resulted from your activity. The Service will determine the disposition of such eagles.

REV 1/13

11. Do I need additional authorization to take eagles from my State or tribal government?
State, tribal and local governments may have their own regulations protecting eagles. Your federal permit
is not valid unless you obtain and comply with all permits, licenses, or other authorizations required by
these jurisdictions that apply to your activity with respect to eagles.
12. How long does it take to get a permit for non-purposeful take of eagles?
The time needed by the Service to process a permit application depends on the complexity and scope of
the activity and associated take, whether tribal consultation is warranted, what other environmental
analyses may be required and other factors. In general, applicants may expect the following approximate
permit processing times from the time we receive a complete application:
Standard permit
Standard or programmatic permit requiring an environmental assessment
Standard or programmatic permit with EIS

90 days
4 to 6 months
18 to 24 months

13. How do I renew my permit?
Except for programmatic permits, this type of permit should not typically be subject to renewal
considerations, because, in general, standard permits issued under these regulations authorize a limited
amount of take, resulting from a specific activity that occurs in an identifiable time-frame. However, a
renewal letter or form and annual report form will be sent to you at least 60 days prior to the expiration of
your permit (partially as a reminder that your permit is due to expire). If you wish to renew your permit,
you must return the completed renewal to your Regional Migratory Bird Permit Office at least 30 days
prior to the expiration of your permit and include copies of any other permits required by your State, tribe,
or other jurisdiction. If we receive your renewal request at least 30 days prior to the expiration of your
permit, your permit will remain valid beyond the expiration date for the activity authorized on your
permit until a decision on your renewal is made. If we receive your renewal request fewer than 30 days
prior to expiration of your permit and we are unable to process your request before the expiration date,
your permit will expire and you will no longer be covered for your activity. If you allow your permit to
expire before requesting renewal, you may be required to submit a new application. (See 50 CFR 13.22
and 13.11(c)).
