The trend I observed in the Department of Interior data is that many of its employees are approaching retirement age (it is typically 55 years old in government). Note the imbalance of older employees among the entire employment population in this chart.

I anticipate that the agency may be in trouble in the next few years because of this imbalance.

One possible strategy is that the Department of Interior should commence a hiring effort to start employing more new blood. Another is start work on building a budget to hire more contractors.
