The hunt will take place on dozens of city properties within five miles of Kennedy and LaGuardia airports.
Aviation officials have culled bird flocks on airport property for years, but this will mark a major expansion of the effort into other parts of the city.
The roundup is being timed with the molting season, when the geese can't fly. It is scheduled to begin within a week. The birds will be gassed.
