U.S. Code as of:
01/03/05
Section 443. Requisition of grain to prevent crop depredation by migratory waterfowl
Upon a finding by the Secretary of the Interior that any area in
the United States is threatened with damage to farmers' crops by
migratory waterfowl, whether or not during the open season for such
migratory waterfowl, the Secretary of the Interior is authorized
and directed to requisition from the Commodity Credit Corporation
and to make available to Federal, State, or local governmental
bodies or officials, or to private organizations or persons, such
grain acquired by the Commodity Credit Corporation through
price-support operations in such quantities and subject to such
regulations as the Secretary determines will most effectively lure
migratory waterfowl away from crop depredations and at the same
time not expose such migratory waterfowl to shooting over areas to
which the waterfowl have been lured by such feeding programs.
