Title 50 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
Purpose: To collect the contact information of individuals that hold Federal Raptor Propagation permits, Special Purpose Game Bird

information about the routine uses may be found in the Systems of Records Notice, FWS-21 Permits System.
Disclosure: Providing the requested information is voluntary. However, submission of the requested information is required to
maintain Federal permit under the MBTA. Failure to disclose the requested information may be sufficient cause for revocation of the

nature, the information may be transferred to the appropriate Federal, State, local or foreign agency charged with investigating or
prosecuting such violations.
PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT STATEMENT
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service collects information necessary

requested in this form is purely voluntary. However, submission of requested information is required in order to process applications
for permits authorized under the above laws. Failure to provide all requested information may be sufficient cause for the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service to deny the request. According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, an agency may not conduct or sponsor
and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. OMB
