Good question Dave. I=E2=80=99m nor aware of anything in writing about =
that. The following pages talk around the issue.

https://www.canada.ca/en/environment-climate-change/services/avoiding-har=
m-migratory-birds/reducing-risk.html.

https://www.canada.ca/en/environment-climate-change/services/avoiding-har=
m-migratory-birds/reducing-risk.html#_002.

https://www.canada.ca/en/environment-climate-change/services/avoiding-har=
m-migratory-birds/beneficial-management-practices.html.

The last one may be the most relevant to forestry but it is voluntary.

John

"Currently, the regulations do not provide for authorizations or permits =
for the incidental take of migratory birds or their nests or eggs in the =
course of industrial or other activities."

Either every farmer cutting hay and every tree harvester mowing forests =
and every developer building roads is doing exhaustive nest searches =
before beginning his/her work and generously avoiding those nests, or =
there is a massive loophole that circumvents the MBA regulations. If the =
latter, the relevant exception must be in writing somewhere - can =
someone point me too it?
