parts except as permitted under the

terms of a valid permit or as permitted

by regulations. In 2006, we issued

regulations establishing two

depredation orders and three control

orders that allow State and tribal

wildlife agencies, private landowners,

and airports to conduct resident Canada

goose population management,

including the take of birds. We monitor

the data collected for activities under

these orders and may rescind an order

if monitoring indicates that activities are

inconsistent with conservation of

Canada geese.

Control order for airports. Our

regulations at 50 CFR 21.49 allow

managers at commercial, public, and

private airports and military airfields

and their employees or agents to

implement management of resident

Canada geese to resolve or prevent

threats to public safety. An airport must

be part of the National Plan of Integrated

Airport Systems and have received

Federal grant-in-aid assistance or be a

military airfield under the jurisdiction,

custody, or control of the Secretary of a

military department. Each facility

exercising the privileges of the order

must submit an annual report with the

date, numbers, and locations of birds,

nests, and eggs taken.

Depredation order for nests and eggs.

Our regulations at 50 CFR 21.50 allow

private landowners and managers of

public lands to destroy resident Canada

goose nests and eggs on property under

their jurisdiction, provided they register

annually on our Web site at https://

epermits.fws.gov/eRCGR. Registrants

must provide basic information, such as

name, address, phone number, and

email, and identify where the control

work will occur and who will conduct

it. Registrants must return to the Web

site to report the number of nests with

eggs they destroyed.

Depredation order for agricultural

facilities. Our regulations at 50 CFR

21.51 allow States and tribes, via their

wildlife agencies, to implement

programs to allow landowners,

operators, and tenants actively engaged

in commercial agriculture to conduct

damage management control when

geese are committing depredations, or to

resolve or prevent other injury to

agricultural interests. State and tribal

wildlife agencies in the Atlantic,

Central, and Mississippi Flyway

portions of 41 States may implement the

provisions of the order. Each

implementing agricultural producer

must maintain a log of the date and

number of birds taken under this

authorization. Each State and tribe

exercising the privileges of the order

must submit an annual report of the

numbers of birds, nests, and eggs taken,

and the county or counties where take

occurred.

Public health control order. Our

regulations at 50 CFR 21.52 authorize

States and tribes of the lower 48 States

to conduct (via the State or tribal

wildlife agency) resident Canada goose

control and management activities when

the geese pose a direct threat to human

health. States and tribes operating under

this order must submit an annual report

summarizing activities, including the

numbers of birds taken and the county

where take occurred.

Population control. Our regulations at

50 CFR 21.61 establish a managed take

program to reduce and stabilize resident

Canada goose populations when

traditional and otherwise authorized

management measures are not

successful or feasible. A State or tribal

wildlife agency in the Atlantic,

Mississippi, or Central Flyway may

request approval for this population

control program. If approved, the State

or tribe may use hunters to harvest

resident Canada geese during the month

of August. Requests for approval must

include a discussion of the State’s or

tribe’s efforts to address its injurious

situations using other methods, or a

discussion of the reasons why the

methods are not feasible. If the Service

Director approves a request, the State or

tribe must (1) keep annual records of

activities carried out under the authority

of the program, and (2) provide an

annual summary, including number of

individuals participating in the program

and the number of resident Canada

geese shot. Additionally, participating

States and tribes must monitor the

spring breeding population by providing

an annual estimate of the breeding

population and distribution of resident

Canada geese in their State.

Our regulations at 50 CFR 21.49,

21.50, 21.51, and 21.52 require that

persons or entities operating under the

depredation and control orders must

immediately report the take of any

species protected under the Endangered

Species Act (ESA). This information

ensures that the incidental take limits

authorized under section 7 of the ESA

are not exceeded.

Comments Received and Our Responses

On August 18, 2015, we published in

the Federal Register (80 FR 50021) a

notice of our intent to request that OMB

renew approval for this information

collection. In that notice, we solicited

comments for 60 days, ending on

October 19, 2015. We received one

comment. The commenter objected to

the taking of Canada geese, but did not

address the information collection

requirements. We did not make any

changes to our requirements as a result

of this comment.

Request for Public Comments

We again invite comments concerning

this information collection on:

•

Whether or not the collection of

information is necessary, including

whether or not the information will

have practical utility;

•

The accuracy of our estimate of the

burden for this collection of

information;

•

Ways to enhance the quality, utility,

and clarity of the information to be

collected; and

•

Ways to minimize the burden of the

collection of information on

respondents.

Comments that you submit in

response to this notice are a matter of

public record. Before including your

address, phone number, email address,

or other personal identifying

information in your comment, you

should be aware that your entire

comment, including your personal

identifying information, may be made

publicly available at any time. While

you can ask OMB and us in your

comment to withhold your personal

identifying information from public

review, we cannot guarantee that it will

be done.
