States would have the delegated authority to determine whether, when, where, and for what purposes to control cormorants within limits set by the Service.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'helvetica'">(2) Establish an aquaculture depredation order, which would allow take of cormorants under prescribed conditions at aquaculture facilities without the need to acquire an individual permit.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'helvetica'">(3) Both (1) and (2) in combination.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'helvetica'"></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'helvetica'"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">If you've noticed a remarkable decline in the quality of a recreational fishery in the last X years, or any other adverse impact to a fishery, and you think it's due to cormorant population increase, comment on this! It's your right and duty as an American to take an active role as a stakeholder. Or just complain on Nodak and yuck it up about practicing the three S's. Either way is good with me. </span></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'helvetica'"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'helvetica'"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'">Hot tips from the feds on how to get your comment noticed:</span></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'helvetica'"><span style="font-family: 'Verdana'"></span></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'helvetica'">a. Be as succinct as possible.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'helvetica'">b. Be specific. Comments supported by logic, rationale, and citations are more useful than opinions.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'helvetica'">c. State suggestions and recommendations clearly with an expectation of what you would like the Service to do.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #333333"><span style="font-family: 'helvetica'">d.
