General Provisions; Revised List of Migratory Birds

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), propose to 
revise the List of Migratory Birds protected by the Migratory Bird 
Treaty Act (MBTA) by both adding and removing species. Reasons for the 
changes to the list include adding species based on new taxonomy and 
new evidence of natural occurrence in the United States or U.S. 
territories, removing species no longer known to occur within the 
United States or U.S. territories, and changing names to conform to 
accepted use. The net increase of 59 species (66 added and 7 removed) 
would bring the total number of species protected by the MBTA to 1,085. 
We regulate the taking, possession, transportation, sale, purchase, 
barter, exportation, and importation of migratory birds. An accurate 
and up-to-date list of species protected by the MBTA is essential for 
public notification and regulatory purposes.

DATES: We will accept comments received or postmarked on or before 
January 28, 2019. Comments submitted electronically using the Federal 
eRulemaking Portal (see ADDRESSES, below) must be received by 11:59

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

What statutory authority does the service have for this rulemaking?

    We have statutory authority and responsibility for enforcing the 
MBTA (16 U.S.C. 703-712), the Fish and Wildlife Improvement Act of 1978 
(16 U.S.C. 742l), and the Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956 (16 U.S.C. 
742a-j). The MBTA implements Conventions between the United States and 
four neighboring countries for the protection of migratory birds, as 
follows:
    (1) Canada: Convention between the United States and Great Britain 
[on behalf of Canada] for the Protection of Migratory Birds, August 16, 
1916, 39 Stat. 1702 (T.S. No. 628), as amended by Protocol between the 
Government of the United States and the Government of Canada Amending 
the 1916 Convention between the United Kingdom and the United States of 
America for the Protection of Migratory Birds, Sen. Treaty Doc. 104-28 
(December 14, 1995);
    (2) Mexico: Convention between the United States and Mexico for the 
Protection of Migratory Birds and Game Mammals, February 7, 1936, 50 
Stat. 1311 (T.S. No. 912), as amended by Protocol with Mexico amending 
Convention for Protection of Migratory Birds and Game Mammals, Sen. 
Treaty Doc. 105-26 (May 5, 1997);
    (3) Japan: Convention between the Government of the United States 
of America and the Government of Japan for the Protection of Migratory 
Birds and Birds in Danger of Extinction, and Their Environment, March 
4, 1972, 25 U.S.T. 3329 (T.I.A.S. No. 7990); and
    (4) Russia: Convention between the United States of America and the 
Union of Soviet Socialist Republics Concerning the Conservation of 
Migratory Birds and Their Environment (Russia), November 19, 1976, 29 
U.S.T. 4647 (T.I.A.S. No. 9073).

What is the purpose of this rulemaking?

    Our purpose is to inform the public of the species protected by the 
MBTA and its implementing regulations. These regulations are found in 
Title 50, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), parts 10, 20, and 21. We 
regulate the taking, possession, transportation, sale, purchase, 
barter, exportation, and importation of migratory birds. An accurate 
and up-to-date list of species protected by the MBTA is essential for 
notifying the public of regulatory protections.

Why is the amendment of the list of migratory birds necessary?

    The amendments we are proposing are needed to:
    (1) Add 17 species that qualify for protection under the MBTA;
    (2) Correct the spelling of 3 species names on the alphabetized 
list;
    (3) Correct the spelling of 3 species names on the taxonomic list;
    (4) Add 22 species based on new distributional records documenting 
their natural occurrence in the United States or U.S. territories since 
2010;
    (5) Add one species moved from a family that was not protected to a 
family now protected under the MBTA as a result of taxonomic changes;
    (6) Add 26 species newly recognized as a result of recent taxonomic 
changes;
    (7) Remove 7 species not known to occur within the boundaries of 
the United States or U.S. territories as a result of recent taxonomic 
changes;
    (8) Change the common (English) names of 40 species to conform to 
accepted use; and
    (9) Change the scientific names of 114 species to conform to 
accepted use.
    The List of Migratory Birds (50 CFR 10.13) was last revised on 
November 1, 2013 (78 FR 65844). The amendments proposed in this rule 
were necessitated by eight published supplements to the 7th (1998) 
edition of the American Ornithologists' Union (AOU, now recognized as 
American Ornithological Society (AOS)) Check-list of North American 
Birds (AOU 2011, AOU 2012, AOU 2013, AOU 2014, AOU 2015, AOU 2016, AOS 
2017, and AOS 2018) and the 2017 publication of the Clements Checklist 
of Birds of the World (Clements et al. 2017).

What scientific authorities are used to amend the list of migratory 
birds?

    Although bird names (common and scientific) are relatively stable, 
staying current with standardized use is necessary to avoid confusion 
in communications. In making our determinations, we primarily relied on

[[Page 61289]]

the AOS's Checklist of North American birds (AOU 1998), as amended 
annually (AOU 1999 through 2016, AOS 2017, AOS 2018), on matters of 
taxonomy, nomenclature, and the sequence of species and other higher 
taxonomic categories (Orders, Families, Subfamilies) for species that 
occur in North America. The AOS Checklist contains all bird species 
that have occurred in North America from the Arctic through Panama, 
including the West Indies and the Hawaiian Islands, and includes 
distributional information for each species, which specifies whether 
the species is known to occur in the United States. For the species 
that occur outside the geographic area covered by the AOS Checklist, we 
relied on Clements et al. (2017) and peer-reviewed literature. Although 
we primarily rely on the above sources, when informed taxonomic opinion 
is inconsistent or controversial, we evaluate available published and 
unpublished information and come to our own conclusion regarding the 
validity of taxa.

What criteria are used to identify individual species protected by the 
MBTA?

    A species qualifies for protection under the MBTA by meeting one or 
more of the following criteria:
    (1) It occurs in the United States or U.S. territories as the 
result of natural biological or ecological processes and is currently, 
or was previously listed as, a species or part of a family protected by 
one of the four international treaties or their amendments. Any species 
that occurs in the United States or U.S. territories solely as a result 
of intentional or unintentional human-assisted introduction does not 
qualify for the MBTA list, regardless of whether the family the species 
belongs to is listed in any of the treaties, unless:

     It was native to the United States or its territories 
and extant in 1918;
     It was extirpated after 1918 throughout its range in 
the United States and its territories; and
     After such extirpation, it was reintroduced in the 
United States or its territories as part of a program carried out by 
a Federal agency.

    (2) Revised taxonomy results in it being newly split from a species 
that was previously on the list, and the new species occurs in the 
United States or U.S. territories as the result of natural biological 
or ecological processes. If a newly recognized native species is 
considered extinct (following the classification of the American 
Ornithological Society (AOS) or, for species not covered by the AOS, 
the Clements checklist or peer-reviewed literature), that species will 
still be included if either of the following criteria apply:
     The species resembles extant species included in the list 
that may be affected by trade if the species is not included; or
     Not including the species may create difficulties 
implementing the MBTA and its underlying Conventions.
    (3) New evidence exists for its natural occurrence in the United 
States or U.S. territories resulting from new or natural distributional 
changes and the species occurs in a protected family. Records must be 
documented, accepted, and published by the AOS committee. For the U.S. 
Pacific territories that fall outside the geographic scope of the AOS 
and for which there is no identified ornithological authority, new 
evidence of a species' natural occurrence will be based on the Clements 
checklist and then published peer-reviewed literature, in that order.
    In accordance with the Migratory Bird Treaty Reform Act of 2004 
(MBTRA) (Pub. L. 108-447, 118 Stat. 2809, 3071-72), we only include 
migratory bird species that are native to the United States or U.S. 
territories. A native migratory bird species is one that is present as 
a result of natural biological or ecological processes. The list at 50 
CFR 10.13 does not include nonnative species that occur in the United 
States or U.S. territories solely as a result of intentional or 
unintentional human-assisted introduction(s). Elsewhere in today's 
Federal Register, we publish a notice of availability of the draft 
revised list of nonnative bird species that are not protected under the 
MBTA.

How would the proposed changes affect the list of migratory birds?

    Several taxonomic changes were made at the Order and Family level 
by the AOS since our 2013 publication of the list (78 FR 65844; 
November 1, 2013). These changes affect the inclusion and taxonomic 
order of species on this list. Specifically, the Order Cathartiformes 
(New World vultures) was split from the Accipitriformes (diurnal birds 
of prey). Cathartiformes now includes the Family Cathartidae (vultures 
and California condor). At the Family level, the Oceanitidae (southern 
storm-petrels) was split from the Hydrobatidae (northern storm-
petrels), the Tityridae (becards and tityras) was split from the 
Tyrannidae (tyrant flycatchers), the Passerellidae (towhees, sparrows, 
and juncos) was split from the Emberizidae (buntings), the Megaluridae 
(Locustella warblers) was renamed to Locustellidae. The Ptilogonatidae 
(silky-flycatchers) was renamed to the Ptiliogonatidae. The 
Nesospingidae (Puerto Rican tanager) and the Spindalidae (Spindalis 
genus) were split from the Thraupidae (tanagers). The yellow-breasted 
chat was split from the Parulidae (wood-warblers) and placed into 
Icteriidae (chats). Within the Scolopacidae (sandpipers, phalaropes, 
and allies), new Subfamilies were created: The curlews were moved to 
Numeniinae; the godwits to Limosinae; and small sandpipers to 
Arenariinae and larger sandpipers to Tringinae, including phalaropes 
whose previous Subfamily Phalaropodinae was removed. Within the 
Accipitridae (hawks, eagles, and kites), new Subfamilies were created: 
The white-tailed kite was move to Elaninae, hook-billed and swallow-
tailed kite were moved to Gypaetinae, and all other members of the 
family were moved to Accipitrinae. Within the Icteridae (blackbirds), 
new Subfamilies were created: Yellow-headed blackbird was moved to 
Xanthocephalinae; bobolink was moved to Dolichonychinae; meadowlarks 
were moved to Sturnellinae; orioles were moved to Icterinae; and 
blackbirds, cowbirds, and grackles were moved to Agelaiinae. In the 
Falconidae (caracaras and falcons), collared forest-falcon was moved 
into the new Subfamily Herpetotherinae, and the Subfamily Caracarinae 
was removed, with crested caracara moved to the Subfamily Falconinae. 
In the Fringillidae (finches and allies), the Hawaiian fringillids were 
moved from the Subfamily Drepanidinae to Carduelinae. The Old World 
flycatchers in the Turdidae (thrushes) were moved to the Muscicapidae 
(Old World flycatchers). Bananaquit was moved from the Coerebidae (a 
family not protected by MBTA) to the Thraupidae (tanagers and allies), 
which is a family protected by the MBTA. All other tanagers were also 
moved from the Emberizidae (sparrows) to the Thraupidae. Within 
Thraupidae, the seedeaters were moved into the Subfamily Sporophilinae, 
and bananaquit, grassquits, and bullfinches were moved into the 
Subfamily Coerebinae.
    All species previously receiving protection under the MBTA that 
have been moved to newly created Families continue to be protected 
under the MBTA.
    The proposed amendments (66 additions, 7 removals, and 154 name 
changes) would affect a total of 204 species and would result in a net 
addition of 59 species to the List of Migratory Birds, increasing the 
number of species on the list from 1,026 to

[[Page 61290]]

1,085. Of the 66 species that we would add to the list, 26 were 
previously covered under the MBTA as members of the same species 
(conspecific) of listed species. These proposed amendments can be 
logically arranged in the following nine categories:
    (1) Add 17 species that qualify for protection by the MBTA but have 
not been added previously. The addition of these species is the result 
of either accepting AOS taxonomic updates that were previously excluded 
or determinations of documented natural occurrence in the United States 
or U.S. territories. The species and relevant publication(s) are:

Pink-footed Goose, Anser brachyrhynchus (AOU 1983);
Cackling Goose, Branta hutchinsii (AOU 2003);
European Turtle-Dove, Streptopelia turtur (AOU 2007);
Long-tailed Koel, Urodynamis taitensis (Wiles 2005);
White-tailed Nightjar, Hydropsalis cayennensis (AOU 1983);
Vervain Hummingbird, Mellisuga minima (AOU 1983);
Kentish Plover, Charadrius alexandrinus (Enbring and Owen 1981);
Common Redshank, Tringa totanus (Wiles 2005);

Eurasian Jackdaw, Corvus monedula (AOU 1998);
Redwing, Turdus iliacus (AOU 1983);
Common Kingfisher, Alcedo atthis (Wiles et al. 1993).

    (2) Correct the spelling of three common or scientific names on the 
alphabetized list:
Eared Quetzel, Euptilotis neoxenus, becomes Eared Quetzal
Red-footed falcon, Flaco vespertinus, becomes Falco vespertinus
Piratic Flycatcher, Legatus leucophalus becomes Legatus leucophaius
    (3) Correct the spelling of three common or scientific names on the 
taxonomic list:
Eared Quetzel, Euptilotis neoxenus, becomes Eared Quetzal
White-crested Eleania, Elaenia albiceps becomes White-crested Elaenia
Piratic Flycatcher, Legatus leucophalus becomes Legatus leucophaius
    (4) Add 22 species based on review and acceptance by the AOS (since 
2010) or by other appropriate ornithological authorities of new 
distributional records documenting their occurrence in the United 
States or U.S. territories. These species belong to families covered by 
at least one of the four international conventions, and all are 
considered to be of accidental or casual occurrence. For each species, 
we list the State in which it has been recorded plus the relevant 
publication:

Common Scoter, Melanitta nigra--California and Oregon (AOS 2017);
Amethyst-throated Hummingbird, Lampornis amethystinus--Texas (AOS 
2018);
Rufous-necked Wood-Rail, Aramides axillaris--New Mexico (AOU 2016);
Solitary Snipe, Gallinago solitaria--Alaska (AOU 2011);
Chatham Albatross, Thalassarche eremita--California (AOS 2017);
Providence Petrel, Pterodroma solandri--Alaska (AOU 2013);
Fea's Petrel, Pterodroma feae--North Carolina, Georgia, Virginia 
(AOU 2013);

White-chinned Petrel, Procellaria aequinoctialis--Texas, California, 
Maine (AOU 2011);
Bryan's Shearwater, Puffinus bryani--Hawaii (AOU 2012);
Bare-throated Tiger-Heron, Tigrisoma mexicanum--Texas (AOU 2011);
Double-toothed Kite, Harpagus bidentatus--Texas (AOU 2013);

Gray-collared Becard, Pachyramphus major--Arizona (AOU 2011);
Pine Flycatcher, Empidonax affinis--Arizona (AOS 2018);
Cuban Vireo, Vireo gundlachii--Florida (AOS 2018);
Common Chiffchaff, Phylloscopus collybita--Alaska (AOU 2014);
Blyth's Reed Warbler, Acrocephalus dumetorum--Alaska (AOU 2017);
Common Redstart, Phoenicurus phoenicurus--Alaska (AOU 2015);
Brown-backed Solitaire, Myadestes occidentalis--Arizona (AOU 2011);
Asian Rosy-Finch, Leucosticte arctoa--Alaska (AOU 2013);
Red-legged Honeycreeper, Cyanerpes cyaneus--Texas (AOS 2017).

    (5) Add one species because of recent taxonomic changes 
transferring a species in a Family formerly not protected by the MBTA 
(Coerebidae) into a Family protected under the MBTA (Thraupidae). We 
reference the AOU publication supporting the change: Bananaquit, 
Coereba flaveola, (AOU 2015).
    (6) Add 26 species because of recent taxonomic changes in which 
taxa formerly treated as conspecific have been determined to be 
distinct species. Given that each of these species was formerly treated 
as conspecific with a listed species, these additions would not change 
the protective status of any of these taxa, only the names by which 
they are known. In each case, we reference the AOS or relevant 
publication supporting the change:

Ridgway's Rail, Rallus obsoletus--formerly considered conspecific 
with Clapper Rail, Rallus longirostris (AOU 2014);
Common Gallinule, Gallinula galeata--formerly considered conspecific 
with Common Moorhen, Gallinula chloropus (AOU 2011);

conspecific with Collared Kingfisher, Todiramphus chloris (Clements 
et al. 2015);
Woodhouse's Scrub-Jay, Aphelocoma woodhouseii--formerly considered 
conspecific with Western Scrub-Jay, Aphelocoma californica (AOU 
2016);
Kamchatka Leaf Warbler, Phylloscopus examinandus--formerly 
considered conspecific with Arctic Warbler, Phylloscopus borealis 
(AOU 2014);

conspecific with White-collared Seedeater, Sporophila torqueola (AOS 
2018).

    (7) Remove seven species based on revised taxonomic treatments, 
either because a species is taxonomically merged with another species, 
either on or off the list; a species previously on the list is 
taxonomically split into multiple species and the new species is not 
known to occur within the United States or U.S. territories; or the 
species is considered extinct (following the classification of the AOS 
or, for species not covered by the AOS, the Clements checklist or peer-
reviewed literature) unless any of the following criteria apply: It is 
protected under the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (ESA; 16 
U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), or the Convention on International Trade in 
Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES; 27 U.S.T. 1087); it 
resembles extant species included in the list that may be affected by 
its removal; or its removal would create difficulties implementing the 
MBTA and its underlying Conventions. In each case, we reference the 
publication supporting these changes:

Thayer's Gull, Larus thayeri, now a subspecies of Iceland Gull, 
Larus glaucoides (AOS 2017);
Townsend's Shearwater, Puffinus auricularis (AOU 2015);
Little Shearwater, Puffinus assimilis (AOU 2015);
Brown Hawk-Owl, Ninox scutulata (AOU 2014);
Caribbean Coot, Fulica caribaea (AOU 2016);
Collared Kingfisher, Todiramphus chloris (Clements et al. 2015);
White-collared Seedeater, Sporophila torqueola (AOS 2018).

    (8) Revise the common (English) names of 40 species to conform to 
the most recent nomenclatural treatment as described in AOU 
publications 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, AOS 2017, AOS 2018, 
and Clements et al. (2017). Hawaiian species names are modified to 
official Hawaiian spelling, following the Pukui-Elbert Hawaiian 
Dictionary, adding the diacritical marks to the common names where 
applicable. The Government Publishing Office Style Manual requires the 
words Hawaii and Kauai to be spelled without the diacritical mark. 
These revisions do not change the protective status of any of these 
taxa, only the names by which they are known. In each case, the update 
is described in the table, below.
    (9) Revise the scientific names of 114 species to conform to the 
most recent nomenclatural treatment as described in AOU publications 
2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, AOS 2017, AOS 2018, and Clements et 
al. (2017). These revisions do not change the protective status of any 
of these taxa, only the names by which they are known. In each case, 
the update is described in the table, below.
    Table of Proposed Name Changes, as described in categories 8 and 9, 
above. Table is organized following AOS (2017) taxonomic order. The 
relevant AOS publication is provided. Hawaiian common name changes are 
indicated with a (--).

How is the list of migratory birds organized?

    The species are listed in two formats to suit the needs of 
different segments of the public: alphabetically in 50 CFR 10.13(c)(1) 
and taxonomically in 50 CFR 10.13(c)(2). In the alphabetical listing, 
species are listed by common (English) group names, with the scientific 
name of each species following the English group name. This format, 
similar to that used in modern telephone directories, is most useful to 
members of the lay public. In the taxonomic listing, species are listed 
in phylogenetic sequence by scientific name, with the English name 
following the scientific name. To help clarify species relationships, 
we also list the higher-level taxonomic categories of Order, Family, 
and Subfamily. This format follows the sequence adopted by the AOS 
(1998, 2017) and is most useful to ornithologists and other scientists.

What species are not protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act?

    The MBTA does not apply to:
    (1) Nonnative species introduced into the United States or U.S. 
territories by means of intentional or unintentional human assistance 
that belong to families or groups covered by the Canadian, Mexican, or 
Russian Conventions. Elsewhere in today's Federal Register, we publish 
a notice of availability of the draft revised list of nonnative bird 
species that are not protected under the MBTA. Note, though, that 
native species that are introduced into parts of the United States 
where they are not native are still protected under the MBTA regardless 
of where they occur in the United States or U.S. territories.
    (2) Species native or nonnative to the United States or U.S. 
territories that either belong to families or groups not referred to in 
the Canada, Mexico, and Russia Conventions or are not included by 
species name in the Japan Convention. This includes the Tinamidae 
(tinamous), Megapodiidae (megapodes), Cracidae (chachalacas), 
Odontophoridae (New World quail), Phasianidae (grouse, ptarmigan, and 
turkeys), Pteroclidae (sandgrouse), Heliornithidae (finfoots), 
Burhinidae (thick-knees), Glareolidae (pratincoles), Todidae (todies), 
Psittacidae (parrots), Psittaculidae (Old World parrots), Meliphagidae 
(honeyeaters), Dicruridae (drongos), Monarchidae (monarchs), 
Pycnonotidae (bulbuls), Scotocercidae (bush warblers and allies), 
Zosteropidae (white-eyes), Sturnidae (starlings, except as listed in 
Japanese treaty), Ploceidae (weavers), Estrildidae (estrildid finches), 
and Passeridae (Old World sparrows, including house or English 
sparrow), as well as numerous other families not represented in the 
United States or U.S. territories.

Public Comments

    Any final action resulting from this proposed rule must be based on 
the best scientific and commercial data available and be as accurate 
and as effective as possible. We request comments or information from 
other concerned governmental agencies, the scientific community, 
industry, or any other

[[Page 61294]]

interested parties concerning this proposed rule.
    Please include sufficient information with your submission (such as 
electronic copies of scientific journal articles or other publications, 
preferably in English) to allow us to verify any scientific or 
commercial information you include.
    You may submit your comments and materials concerning this proposed 
rule by one of the methods listed in ADDRESSES. We request that you 
send comments only by the methods described in ADDRESSES.
    If you submit information via http://www.regulations.gov, your 
entire submission--including any personal identifying information--will 
be posted on the website. If your submission is made via a hardcopy 
that includes personal identifying information, you may request at the 
top of your document that we withhold this information from public 
review. However, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so. We 
will post all hardcopy submissions on http://www.regulations.gov.
    Comments and materials we receive, as well as supporting 
documentation we used in preparing this proposed rule, will be 
available for public inspection on http://www.regulations.gov, or by 
appointment, during normal business hours, at the U.S. Fish and 
Wildlife Service, Division of Migratory Bird Management (see FOR 
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT).

Required Determinations

Regulatory Planning and Review

    Executive Order (E.O.) 12866 provides that the Office of 
Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) in the Office of Management 
and Budget will review all significant rules. OIRA has determined that 
this proposed rule is not significant.
    E.O. 13563 reaffirms the principles of E.O. 12866, while calling 
for improvements in the nation's regulatory system to promote 
predictability, to reduce uncertainty, and to use the best, most 
innovative, and least burdensome tools for achieving regulatory ends. 
E.O. 13563 directs agencies to consider regulatory approaches that 
reduce burdens and maintain flexibility and freedom of choice for the 
public where these approaches are relevant, feasible, and consistent 
with regulatory objectives. E.O. 13563 emphasizes further that 
regulations must be based on the best available science and that the 
rulemaking process must allow for public participation and an open 
exchange of ideas. We have developed this proposed rule in a manner 
consistent with these requirements.

Executive Order 13771--Reducing Regulation and Controlling Regulatory 
Costs

    This proposed rule is not an Executive Order (E.O.) 13771 (82 FR 
9339, February 3, 2017) regulatory action because this proposed rule is 
not significant under E.O. 12866.

Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.)

    Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., as 
amended by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act 
(SBREFA) of 1996 (5 U.S.C. 804(2)), whenever an agency is required to 
publish a notice of rulemaking for any proposed or final rule, it must 
prepare and make available for public comment a regulatory flexibility 
analysis that describes the effect of the rule on small entities (i.e., 
small businesses, small organizations, and small government 
jurisdictions). However, no regulatory flexibility analysis is required 
if the head of an agency certifies the rule does not have a significant 
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
    SBREFA amended the Regulatory Flexibility Act to require Federal 
agencies to provide the statement of the factual basis for certifying 
that a rule will not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities. We have examined this proposed 
rule's potential effects on small entities as required by the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act, and have determined that, if adopted as 
proposed, this action would not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities. This rule is an administrative 
action to update the list of migratory bird species protected under the 
Conventions. Consequently, we certify that, if adopted as proposed, 
this rule would not have a significant economic impact on a substantial 
number of small entities; therefore, a regulatory flexibility analysis 
is not required.
    This proposed rule is not a major rule under SBREFA (5 U.S.C. 
804(2)). It would not have a significant impact on a substantial number 
of small entities.
    a. This proposed rule would not have an annual effect on the 
economy of $100 million or more.
    b. This proposed rule would not cause a major increase in costs or 
prices for consumers, individual industries, Federal, State, or local 
government agencies, or geographic regions.
    c. This proposed rule would not have significant adverse effects on 
competition, employment, investment, productivity, innovation, or the 
ability of U.S.-based enterprises to compete with foreign-based 
enterprises.

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    In accordance with the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (2 U.S.C. 1501 
et seq.), we have determined the following:
    a. This proposed rule would not ``significantly or uniquely'' 
affect small governments. A small government agency plan is not 
required. This proposed rule is an administrative action to update the 
list of migratory bird species protected under the Conventions; it 
would not affect small government activities in any significant way.
    b. This proposed rule would not produce a Federal mandate of $100 
million or greater in any year; i.e., it is not a ``significant 
regulatory action'' under the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.

Takings

    In accordance with Executive Order 12630, this proposed rule does 
not have significant takings implications. This proposed rule does not 
contain a provision for taking of private property. Therefore, a 
takings implication assessment is not required.

Federalism

    This proposed rule does not have sufficient Federalism effects to 
warrant preparation of a federalism summary impact statement under 
Executive Order 13132. It does not interfere with the States' ability 
to manage themselves or their funds. No significant economic impacts 
are expected to result from the updating of the list of migratory bird 
species.

Civil Justice Reform

    In accordance with Executive Order 12988, the Office of the 
Solicitor has determined that this proposed rule does not unduly burden 
the judicial system and meets the requirements of sections 3(a) and 
3(b)(2) of the Order.

Paperwork Reduction Act

    This proposed rule does not contain information collection 
requirements, and a submission to the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et 
seq.) is not required. We may not conduct or sponsor and you are not 
required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number.

[[Page 61295]]

National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)

    Given that the proposed revision of 50 CFR 10.13 is strictly 
administrative in nature and will have no or minor environmental 
effects, it is categorically excluded from further NEPA requirements 
(43 CFR 46.210(i)).

Endangered Species Act (ESA)

    Of the species on the List of Migratory Birds, 84 species, 
subspecies, or distinct population segments are also listed as 
endangered or threatened under section 4 of the ESA of 1973, as amended 
(16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.). No legal complications arise from the dual 
listing as the two lists are developed under separate authorities and 
for different purposes. Because this proposed rule is strictly 
administrative in nature, it has no effect on endangered or threatened 
species. Thus, it does not require consultation under section 7 of the 
ESA.

Government-to-Government Relationship With Tribes

    In accordance with the President's memorandum of April 29, 1994, 
``Government-to-Government Relations with Native American tribal 
Governments'' (59 FR 22951), Executive Order 13175, and 512 DM 2, we 
have evaluated potential effects on federally recognized Indian tribes 
and have determined that there are no potential effects. The proposed 
revisions to existing regulations in this rule are purely 
administrative in nature and do not interfere with the tribes' ability 
to manage themselves or their funds or to regulate migratory bird 
activities on tribal lands.

Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use (Executive Order 13211)

    On May 18, 2001, the President issued Executive Order 13211 
addressing regulations that significantly affect energy supply, 
distribution, and use. Executive Order 13211 requires agencies to 
prepare Statements of Energy Effects when undertaking certain actions. 
Because this proposed rule would only affect the listing of protected 
species in the United States, it is not a significant regulatory action 
under Executive Order 12866, and does not significantly affect energy 
supplies, distribution, or use. Therefore, this action is not a 
significant energy action and no Statement of Energy Effects is 
required.

Clarity of the Proposed Rule

    We are required by Executive Orders 12866 and 12988 and by the 
Presidential Memorandum of June 1, 1998, to write all rules in plain 
language. This means that each rule we publish must:
    (1) Be logically organized;
    (2) Use the active voice to address readers directly;
    (3) Use clear language rather than jargon;
    (4) Be divided into short sections and sentences; and
    (5) Use lists and tables wherever possible.
    If you feel that we have not met these requirements, send us 
comments by one of the methods listed in ADDRESSES. To better help us 
revise the rule, your comments should be as specific as possible. For 
example, you should tell us the numbers of the sections or paragraphs 
that are unclearly written, which sections or sentences are too long, 
the sections where you feel lists or tables would be useful, etc.
