This bill amends the Migratory Bird Treaty Act to explicitly include incidental take (unintentional killing or harm) of migratory birds within the Act's prohibition on unauthorized take. It directs the Secretary of the Interior to establish a permit and regulatory system authorizing incidental take by industries and activities, with civil penalties of up to $10,000 per violation for unpermitted incidental take. The bill establishes a Migratory Bird Recovery Fund financed by permit fees and appropriations, and requires the Fish and Wildlife Service to conduct research and report to Congress on bird conservation status and the impacts of authorized activities.
