3. STATEMENT OF WORK.

LIVE CANADA GOOSE PROCESSING

USDA APHIS Wildlife Services, Wisconsin

Work Requirements:

The U. S. Department of Agricultural (USDA) Animal Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS)

Wildlife Services (WS) division is looking to create a contract or contracts with one or more meat processing facilities to process live Canada geese in the State of Wisconsin. The processing facilities must have a permit to process meat and the facilities must be licensed by the Wisconsin Department of

Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection.

The USDA APHIS WS staff shall deliver live Canada geese to the processing facility from one to five days per week throughout the summer (June –August). USDA staff will deliver geese during regular business hours or as arranged with the processor. Approximately 100 – 2,000 geese will need to be processed each year.

Goose meat shall be processed, individually labeled and wrapped. The processor is responsible for euthanizing the geese in addition to processing the meat. The processor is only required to process goose breast meat, not the entire bird or plucking. Meat shall be placed in packages weighing between one and five pounds. The packaged meat shall be frozen. Labels regarding consumption warnings will be provided by USDA staff to the processor for placement on each individual package of meat. The processor is responsible for the disposal of all waste byproducts from the processing of geese.

The processing facility shall store the packaged and frozen meat in a freezer until the USDA can arrange to pick up the meat at an agreed upon date. Frozen storage will be needed for up to 30 days before the meat is picked up.

The processing facility shall provide an invoice for processing services to the USDA at the conclusion of the processing season, which typically is July each year.
