[FWS-R9-MB-2008-0109; 91200-1231-9BPP]
RIN 1018-AW11

Migratory Bird Permits; Revision of Expiration Dates for Double-
Crested Cormorant Depredation Orders

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior.

ACTION: Final rule; availability of final environmental assessment.

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

SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, extend the expiration
dates for two existing depredation orders for double-crested cormorants
(Phalacrocorax auritus) for 5 years so that we can continue to
authorize take of double-crested cormorants without a permit under the
terms and conditions of the depredation orders. This action will
continue to allow take of depredating double-crested cormorants to
protect aquaculture, fish hatcheries, fish resources, other birds,
vegetation, and habitats.

DATES: This rule will be effective on April 30, 2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Terry Doyle, Division of Migratory
Bird Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 703-358-1799.
