On the recordNovember 13, 2002
Finally, according to subsection (b), in the time period in which the regulations promulgated pursuant to subsection (d) are in effect, the Secretary of Defense must, ``identify measures to minimize and mitigate . . . any adverse impacts of authorized military readiness activities on affected species of migratory birds'' and ``monitor the impacts of such military readiness activities on affected species of migratory birds.'' Is it the Chairman's understanding that these minimization and monitoring measures must be addressed in the regulations promulgated pursuant to subsection (d), to ensure that those regulations are consistent with the Migratory Bird Treaty Act?
