HF 817 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Study and report of the impact of eagles on loons required.

HF 817 requires Minnesota's commissioner of natural resources to study how bald eagles impact loon populations, specifically focusing on juvenile loons and the overall loon population. The study must be completed by March 1, 2026, and the results must be reported to relevant legislative committees. This bill does not change existing laws or regulations but mandates a factual assessment of eagle-loon interactions. It directly affects the state's natural resource management agency and provides data for future policy decisions.
