Restrictions: Birding is generally NOT permitted in the housing area!  However, Jay Banta has offered a possible exception to that rule under the following guidelines:

"We will generally grant birders permission to bird the housing area but they must ask in advance after arriving. If it is on a weekend or after hours when the office is not open, they should send a representative down and knock on housing doors until they find someone to ask. On the rare occasion that no one is there they may NOT bird the housing area."
