 Corps Castle FY23 NRM Annual Report

USACE Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA) Policy

Signed by Mr. Edward E. Belk, Director of Civil Works, and is intended to educate and inform staff as well as to provide Best Management Practices (BMPs) on commonly performed activities to help achieve compliance with MBTA.

This compliance will allow USACE to meet its responsibility to avoid or minimize negative impacts to migratory birds and their habitat while adhering to USACE policies, practices, and guidelines.

The USACE vision is to ensure that MBTA compliance is met at all Civil Works projects, programs, and activities on USACE lands and waters. The policy memorandum is applicable to all USACE missions and projects and will be applied to migratory bird issues in the execution of all Civil Works Programs.
