This is an interesting proposal, and probably not many hunters will be interested because hunting isn't about killing, and these birds won't be palatable at all.
Therefore, the folks interested will be those who are feeling a direct impact to their property or potentially their livelihood.
My issue is with the disposal - at a limit of 50 per day, somebody would load up a truck and do what with them?
I think that you should consider, with the land owner's permission, that the felled birds can be left where they are (since you already have non toxic shot).
Other participants in the ecosystem like foxes and coyotes will be more than happy to take care of retrieval and disposal.
Anyway, good luck with the change!
