WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT A FEDERAL PERMIT
FOR EAGLE TAKE NECESSARY TO PROTECT AN INTEREST
IN A PARTICULAR LOCALITY (INCIDENTAL TAKE)

A Federal permit for incidental 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 https://www.fws.gov/birds/policies-and-regulations/permits/permitpolicies-and-regulations.php. Below are questions and answers regarding some of the fundamentals of an eagle
incidental 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 is incidental to and 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 a that permit be issued in order for any bald eagle take to be authorized, the
Service cannot “exempt” any 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 pre-construction surveys required?
Depending on the on the activity and circumstances posing the risk to eagles, some applicants will need to conduct
pre-application eagle surveys to obtain the information needed for the application. Such surveys and monitoring must
be according to Service-approved protocols. The level and effort necessary for pre-application monitoring will vary
Form 3-200-71

Rev. 11/2017

depending on the complexity and duration of the activity that will take eagles, and the scope, scale, nature of the
expected take. If the activity will span 5 years or more and is likely to result in eagle take in the form of injury

and/or mortality over the lifetime of the activity, eagle surveys may need to be conducted over more than one
year. Applications for eagle incidental take permits for wind facilities must include pre-construction eagle survey
information collected according to standards defined in the regulations at 50 CFR 22.26(d)(3)(ii).
7.

Are post-activity monitoring and reporting required?
For all permits with durations longer than 5 years, monitoring must be conducted by qualified, independent entities
that report directly to the Service. In the case of permits of 5-year durations or shorter, such third party monitoring may
be required on a case-by-case basis. Permittees must submit an annual report containing all the information required by
Service Form 3-202-15. (https://www.fws.gov/forms/3-202-15.pdf)

8.

What will the Service do with information gathered from the permittee monitoring?
First, the Service will use monitoring information to determine whether take occurs and whether it is within
authorized take levels. Monitoring will also allow the Service to determine whether the permittee’s avoidance and
minimization measures are effective or whether different or additional measures may be needed. The Service will also
use monitoring information to assess whether future, similar activities are likely to disturb or otherwise take eagles. This
information will allow the Service to refine permit conditions for future permits and modify recommendations and
guidelines for minimizing take of eagles.
9.

Will mitigation measures be required?
All permittees will be required to avoid and minimize the potential for take and cannot practicably be avoided.
Compensatory mitigation scaled to project impacts will be required for any permit authorizing take that would exceed the
authorized take limits. Compensatory mitigation for this purpose must ensure the preservation of the affected eagle
species by reducing another ongoing form of mortality by an amount equal to or greater than the unavoidable mortality,
or increasing the eagle population by an equal or greater amount.
10. How long is an eagle non-purposeful take permit valid?
There are two types of eagle incidental take permits: short-term permits which can be valid for any duration up to 5
years and long-term permits which can be valid for any duration between 5 years and 30 years.
11. How will the Service ensure adequate protection for eagles during the lifespans of longer-term permits?
With longer-term permits, the Service has the ability to build more effective adaptive management measures into
the permit conditions. This approach will provide a degree of certainty to project proponents because they will have a
greater understanding of what measures may be required to remain compliant with the terms and conditions of their
permits in the future. This increased level of certainty allows companies to plan accordingly by allocating resources so
they are available if needed to implement additional conservation measures to benefit eagles and maintain their permit
coverage.
12. 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. Unless temporarily withheld for purposes of law enforcement or necropsy, eagle remains are sent to the
National Eagle Repository for distribution to members of Native American tribes.
13. Who are the personnel identified on my permit and what are they authorized to do?
(a) Principal Officer. For permits issued to organizations, a Principal Officer is identified on the permit. The
Principal Officer is the person in charge of the organization and is responsible for the application and any
permitted activities.
(b) Primary Contact. The Primary Contact is the person in the organization who is available to answer questions
about the application or permitted activities. This person may be the same or different than the Principal Officer.
The Primary Contact is not listed on the permit unless the individual is also listed as a subpermittee.
(c) Subpermittee. A subpermittee is an individual authorized to conduct some or all of the permitted activities
without the permittee present. You must identify any subpermittees in your application. Your subpermittees
must have either a copy of your permit that identifies them as a subpermittee, or a copy of your permit and a
letter from the Permittee (Principal Officer) listing activities (including location and duration) they are
Form 3-200-71

Rev. 11/2017

authorized to conduct. The permittee is responsible for ensuring subpermittees are trained and adhere to the
conditions of your permit. Subpermittees must be at least 18 years of age. Individuals younger than 18 must
have a permittee or subpermittee present when conducting activities.
14. Do I need additional authorization to take eagles from my State or tribal government?
You are responsible for ensuring that the permitted activity is in compliance with all federal, tribal, state, and
local laws and regulations applicable to eagles.
15. How much are permit application processing fees for this permit?
For short-term permits (less than 5 years), the application processing fee is $500 for non-commercial entities and
$2,500 for commercial entities. For long-term permits (those with a duration of greater than 5 years), the application
processing fee is $36,000. Long-term permits are also charged an administration fee every 5 years to recover the Service
costs for review of the permit. The permit administration fee is $8,000 for each five-year period the permit is in effect.
There is a $1,000 fee to transfer a permit to a new project owner.
16. Is this permit transferable?
Yes. You may transfer this permit to a new project owner provided they meet the following:
(a) The proposed transferee meets all of the qualifications for holding a permit;
(b) The proposed transferee has provided adequate written assurances of sufficient funding for the
conservation measures, conservation plan, or Agreement, and will implement the relevant terms and
conditions of the permit, including any outstanding minimization and mitigation requirements; and
(c) The proposed transferee has provided other information that we determine is relevant to the processing of
the submission.
17. How long does it take to get a permit for incidental 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:
Short-term permits
Long-term permits

30 - 180 days
12 to 24 months

18. How do I renew my permit?
Except for long-term permits, this type of permit is typically not renewable because, in general, short-term permits
issued under these regulations authorize a limited amount of take, resulting from a specific activity that occurs in an
identifiable time-frame. However, if you wish to renew your permit, you must submit a renewal application that
includes an update on your project status, to your Regional Migratory Bird Permit Office at least 30 days prior to the
expiration of your permit. Include a copy of your current State permit, if one is required. 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 not able to process your request before the expiration
date, your permit will expire and you will no longer be authorized to conduct your activity. If you allow your permit to
expire before requesting renewal, you may be required to submit a new application. (See 50 CFR 13.11(c) and 13.22)).

EAGLE TAKE – ASSOCIATED WITH BUT NOT THE PURPOSE OF AN
ACTIVITY (INCIDENTAL TAKE)
(Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, 50 CFR 22.26)

Note: A Federal eagle incidental take permit authorizes the disturbance or other take of eagles where the take results from
but is not the purpose of an otherwise lawful activity. Permits are available to individuals, agencies, businesses, and other
organizations. This permit does not authorize possession of any eagle, eagle parts, or eagle nests. Please read “What You
Should Know About a Federal Permit For Eagle Take Necessary To Protect An Interest In A Particular Locality (Incidental
Take)” and the pertinent regulations at 50 CFR 22.26 before you sign and submit your application.
Please provide the information requested below on a separate sheet(s) of paper. You should be as thorough and specific as
possible in your responses. Incomplete applications will be returned, delayed or abandoned. Processing time depends on the
complexity of the request and completeness of the application. Processing fees will NOT be returned for abandoned
applications.
Although you may submit supplemental documents that contain the required information, you must respond to each
application requirement below specifically in a single attachment that includes all and only the information required by the
application.
Enumerate each response in accordance with the question numbers below. Please do not send pages that are over 8.5” x 11”
or DVDs.

1. The name and contact information for any U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service employee(s) who has provided technical
assistance or worked with you on this project.
2. The species and number of eagles that are likely to be taken and the likely form of that take (e.g., disturbance, other take).
You must coordinate with the Service to ensure you implement monitoring and survey protocols appropriate for your activity or
project to determine the impacts to eagles. See § 22.26(d)(3). Your application must include the data gathered from the
monitoring and/or surveys needed by the Service to verify the likely impacts to eagles from your activity.
3. The dates the activity will start and is projected to end. If the project has begun, describe the stage of progress.
4. A detailed description of the activity that will likely cause the disturbance or other take of eagles.
5. An explanation of why the take of eagles is necessary, including what interests will be protected by the project or activity.
6. Maps, digital photographs, county/city information, and latitude/longitude geographic coordinates of the proposed
activity.
7. Maps, digital photographs, county/city information, and latitude/longitude geographic coordinates of eagle-use areas in the
vicinity of the activity, including nest site(s), roost areas, foraging areas, and known migration paths. Provide the specific distance
and locations of nests and other eagle-use areas from the project footprint.
8. If the projected take of eagles is in the form of disturbance, answer the following two questions:
a. Will the activity be visible to eagles in the eagle-use areas, or are there visual buffers such as screening
vegetation or topography that blocks the view?
b. What is the extent of existing activities in the vicinity that are similar in nature, size, and use to your activity,
and if so, what is the distance between those activities and the important eagle use areas
9. A detailed description of all avoidance and minimization measures that you have incorporated into your planning for the
activity that you will implement to reduce the likelihood of take of eagles.
10. You must retain records legibly written or reproducible in English relating to the activities conducted under your permit
for at least 5 years from the date of expiration of the permit. Please provide the address where these records will be kept.
11. You are responsible for ensuring that the permitted activity is in compliance with all Federal, tribal, State, and local laws
and regulations applicable to eagles. Have you obtained all required State or Tribal permits or approvals to conduct this activity?
