Title: Waterfowl Harvest Surveys Amendment
OMB Approval Number: 1018-0015
Abstract: Under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, the Secretary of the 
Interior has responsibility for setting appropriate regulations for the 
hunting of migratory birds. Information required for effectively 
governing harvests of migratory birds includes not only knowledge of 
the harvest's magnitude but also information of the species, age, and 
sex composition within that harvest, including the geographical and 
chronological distribution of these components. The information 
collected is used by both Federal and State authorities to monitor the

migratory bird species. This amendment to the currently approved 
Waterfowl Harvest Survey includes a phased expansion to include all 
migratory bird species and to solve non-response problems
