GETT Whitetailed Deer Management Interagency Agreement: USDAWildlife Services and GETT/EISE 20272031

This interagency agreement between the Department of the Interior and USDA Wildlife Services focuses on the management of white-tailed deer populations within GETT and EISE from 2027 to 2031. The primary objectives are to reduce the deer density to a target of 25 deer per square forested mile and to maintain that level through an adaptive management strategy. This approach allows the National Park Service to adjust the timing and intensity of management treatments based on ongoing monitoring to ensure population goals are met. The project is listed as a forecast with a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 924120. Administrative oversight is provided by the Department of the Interior, with Zachary Bolitho serving as the primary point of contact.
