The work group originally charged in 2012 with developing guidelines for elk management in areas with brucellosis will meet July 25 at the FWP Region 3 Headquarters in Bozeman. The meeting will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and is open to the public.

This work group has met once annually since concluding its original charge in 2012. The primary objective of this meeting is to assess interest, need, value, and potential effectiveness in addressing the geographic spread of brucella by managing elk-to-elk transmission.

Public comment will be heard from noon to 12:30 p.m.
