Applications for the purpose of conducting bona fide scientific research must include a detailed study plan which contains the following elements: a statement of the need for the study and expected management application and benefit to the state; a description of study area(s), data collection and analytical methodologies which demonstrate ability to meet study objectives; and a description of financial and other resources which demonstrate ability to meet study objectives. 3. All applications shall be approved by the appropriate Regional Manager, or their designee, with consideration given for potential impacts on state wildlife resources. Applications for the purpose of conducting bona fide scientific research must also be approved by the appropriate Terrestrial or Aquatic Section manager or their designee. 4. Employees of the Division, federal or state agencies applying for a job-related Scientific Collecting License shall be exempt from remitting the license fee but must comply with all other provisions of this chapter. The license fee will be required for projects outside normal agency duties. Temporary employees of the Division who are working under the supervision of a permanent employee who are in possession of a Scientific Collecting License shall not be required to obtain a Scientific Collecting License. 5. Persons applying for a scientific collecting license to band migratory birds must have a valid bird banding permit issued by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service prior to submitting an application to the Division. 6. If an application is denied the applicant shall be notified in writing of the reasons therefore. Applications may be denied for the following reasons: a. The collections are not for a scientific or educational purpose, or it is determined by the Division that the proposed research does not constitute bona fide scientific research. b. The collecting could be conducted during an established season with an appropriate hunting, fishing or trapping license. c. It is determined by the Division that collecting the requested species would be detrimental to the species or its habitat. d. The application is incomplete. e. The application fee is not included. f. Information being sought by the study is already available, as determined by the Division. g.

Students shall carry a copy of the license while engaged in field work. B. Any raptor not taken from the wild in Colorado that is legally possessed under the authority of a scientific collecting license issued for educational purposes may be exported from Colorado when the licensee permanently changes their state of residence, or if the licensee is no longer able to provide adequate care. AS APPROVED - 11/14/2013 Basis and Purpose Chapter W-13 - Scientific Collecting and Special Licenses Basis and Purpose: These regulations are the result of a citizen petition asking the Division to clarify its exportation restrictions for raptors held under a scientific collecting educational license that did not originate from the wild in Colorado. These changes specify that raptors that did not originate from the wild in Colorado which are held under an educational permit may be exported from the state. Corresponding adjustments were simultaneously made in Chapter W-6 to clarify regulations associated with exportation of falconry raptors. The primary statutory authority for these regulations can be found in 24-4-103, C.R.S., and the state Wildlife Act, 33-1-101 to 33-6-209, C.R.S., specifically including, but not limited to: 33-1-106, C.R.S. EFFECTIVE DATE - THESE REGULATIONS SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2014 AND SHALL REMAIN IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT UNTIL REPEALED, AMENDED OR SUPERSEDED. APPROVED AND ADOPTED BY THE PARKS AND WILDLIFE COMMISSION OF THE STATE OF COLORADO THIS 14th DAY OF NOVEMBER, 2013.
