Ranchers on national grasslands would get the same grazing permit rules as those on other federal lands.
This bill would ensure ranchers who graze livestock on national grasslands are treated the same as those on other federal lands when it comes to their grazing permits. It would change a specific part of a 1976 law to make sure these ranchers get consistent rules for their agreements. This means more consistent terms.
Today, a specific part of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA) about grazing permits applies only to "lands within National Forests." If this bill passes, that part of the law would apply to all "National Forest System land," which includes national grasslands. This means ranchers on national grasslands would be covered by the same rules for their grazing agreements.
