Directs Dept. of Agriculture to consult with US Dept. of Agriculture to determine methods and implementation of geese control.

This bill (S 4492) requires New Jersey’s Department of Agriculture to consult with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to identify nonlethal geese control methods and humane lethal alternatives (excluding gassing) for use when necessary. It mandates agencies to develop memorandums of understanding, post implementation guidelines online, and adopt property management standards that discourage geese by minimizing turf grass and promoting native plants. The Division of Fish and Wildlife must coordinate with USDA on lethal methods during public health emergencies, prioritizing humane options. These requirements apply to state agencies and property developers managing public spaces.
