What will happen to existing permits that cover “take” of bald eagles if the actions the Service is proposing are made final?
We anticipate that all existing permits would continue to be honored and in effect if the eagle is delisted and the proposed actions are made final. We hope that during the comment period on this proposal, the public will specifically comment on issues associated with incidental take permits issued under Habitat Conservation Plans that include bald eagles as a covered species.
