Interior Department, Fish and Wildlife Service

Abstract

The Fish and Wildlife Service (hereinafter Service or we) is proposing to establish the 2006-07 late-season hunting regulations for certain migratory game birds. We annually prescribe frameworks, or outer limits, for dates and times when hunting may occur and the number of birds that may be taken and possessed in late seasons. These frameworks are necessary to allow State selections of seasons and limits and to allow recreational harvest at levels compatible with population and habitat conditions.
