The proposed changes allow for: 1) the publishing of notice for expiring grazing permits; 2) clarifying of procedures for the reimbursement to permittees who lose the use of an approved range improvement; 3) prohibiting the extension of time for a grazing permit beyond 15 years; and 4) aligning the rule with existing board policy addressing grazing tenure of permits associated with land exchanges, which calls for two-term non-compete protections for grazing permits transferring from BLM to the agency.
