Chief Office of Migratory Bird Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Department ofthe Interior 1849 C Street, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20240 Dear Chief, I have chosen to send this letter to you from a letter writing service. I chose it because it represents my views and opinions perfectly. It is however, signed by me as an individual, and I hope you will consider it as such. My friends, associates and I heard about the plans to issue standing permits to state agencies and state offices of the dreaded federal Animal Damage Control.(ADC) Under current law, a federal permit must be obtained before killing these beautiful birds who mate for life. Delegating power to state "conservation" agencies, known to represent the interests of sports hunters and ADC known to use cruel, outdated barbaric methods of animal control will result in a blood bath and unchecked persecution of geese. Long tenn, non lethal means of goose population control are available but will be ignored if this environmental assessment is approved. I request that you reconsider this plan that will cause Canada geese to lose federal protection, and be killed for the sole purpose of killing. Sincerely,
