Summary


68A-16.003 currently applies only to non-listed bird nests. The revision changes the title of the rule to include non-listed birds and eggs. The revised rule prohibits take of non-listed birds, nests, and eggs, except as authorized in Commission approved guidelines. This rule currently lists Commission approved guidelines for the osprey and provides a hyperlink to that document. The Commission reviewed and approved guidelines for two non-listed birds: snowy egret and white ibis. The intent of this rule revision is to incorporate these guidelines into 68A-16.003 by reference and hyperlinks.
