I would bet every homeowner on a golf course would beg the Feds to allow air rifles for goose control if they were educated on the benefits.

Mark,
Don't expect the authorities to be familiar with the details of the permits. Most enforcement people won't admit they don't know, and will err on the safe side and just say you cannot do it.
When I first contacted the head of the DNR in my area to shoot depredating birds, his response was "let me know what you find out".
Check the code of federal regulations (CFR), it should say.
