Default Goose and Duck Reporting

Last year I got letter in the mail from the department of the interior harvest surveys with a application for reporting my goose and duck harvests. They had columns for amount of birds, time date and location of kill.... and at the end of the year they asked me to send it in. Now this year they sent me a letter thanking me for participating in the survey and asked if this year they could send me envelopes to enclose particular feathers from birds to age them. So in August they send me about 30 large envelopes asking me to enclose 6 inch tips from 3 flight feathers and all the tail feathers from the geese, and the whole wing cut off from the body of ducks. They say they do this to determine how many young of the year were shot and to age the birds. I also have to fill out all the harvest information. Has this ever happened to anyone? I've never heard of this or talked to anyone that knew anything about it...
