INSTRUCTIONS FOR RE-ORDERING
EAGLE PARTS FOR NATIVE AMERICAN RELIGIOUS PURPOSES
IMPORTANT: Use this Re-Order Request (Form 3-200-15B) only if you already have a permit to possess eagle carcasses, parts,
and feathers from the National Eagle Repository (Repository). If you do not already have a permit, do not use this form. Instead,
you first need to apply to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Migratory Bird Permit Office that serves the State where you live to
obtain a permit. See instructions for “Applying for a Permit” below.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service administers the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, the primary Federal law protecting bald
and golden eagles. This law provides for the use of eagle parts and feathers for religious purposes by Native Americans. Eagle
carcasses, parts, and feathers are accumulated by, and made available to Native Americans through, the Repository. In order to
receive material from the Repository, you must first obtain a permit from the Service Regional Migratory Bird Permit
Office responsible for your State. You only need to obtain a single permit, which authorizes all future shipments of eagle
carcasses, parts, and feathers from the Repository. Once you have that permit, you may make future requests directly to the
Repository using this Reorder Request form each time. If you do not have a permit yet, see the instructions for “Applying
for a Permit” below.
The Repository serves Native Americans of federally recognized tribes throughout the United States. Shipments are prioritized
according to the date the Repository receives a completed Re-Order Request form. You can avoid delays in the processing of your
Re-Order Request by ensuring that your form is signed and the information you provide is complete and legible. We must have
your current address and telephone number so the Repository can contact you when your request is ready to be filled.
***IMPORTANT: Please notify the Repository at (303) 287-2110 if you change your address or telephone number. The
Repository will not ship any orders without prior address verification.
Due to the limited supply of eagle carcasses, parts and feathers, all applicants are allowed only one pending order at a
time. Each order for parts may not exceed the quantity of one whole bird. A pplicants ordering a whole bird may not order
additional parts. Requests for a whole carcass average 2-2½ years to fill for a bald eagle and 4½ - 5 years to fill for a golden eagle.
Feather orders are as follows: Ten “quality loose feathers”, which usually consist of 8 wing feathers and 2 tail feathers, are filled
within 6 months. T wenty “miscellaneous loose feathers” usually consist of a mixture of lower quality feathers that are not
exchangeable or returnable and are filled within 90 days. Please refer to page 3 for descriptions of eagle feathers
Use this Re-Order Request (Form 3-200-15B) only if you already have a permit. (If you do not have a permit yet, see instructions
below.) When filling it out, make sure you request either a whole bird or parts. Do not ask for both. Make sure your re-order
form is completed with all information, including permit number, and signed. If your form is incomplete, it will be returned to
you and your order will be delayed. You do not need to resubmit your Certification of Enrollment. Mail your completed and
signed Reorder Request to:
USFWS National Eagle Repository
RMA, Building 128
6550 Gateway Road
Commerce City, CO 80022-1798
