GRAZING REGULATIONS. 

 ALLOTMENTS. 



Reg. G-l. The Secretary of Agriculture will prescribe each year 

 the number of stock to be allowed in each National Forest, and will 

 authorize the approval of applications for permits during periods of 

 one or more years, but revocable at any time within his discretion. 

 The yearlong grazing fee to be charged for each class of stock will be 

 determined by the Forester in accordance with Reg. G-4. Seasons 

 less than yearlong will be established by the District Forester, w r ho 

 will determine the fees to be charged for each short season in accord- 

 ance with the established schedule and the provisions of Reg. G-4. 

 When notified of the establishment of grazing allowances and year- 

 long rates for any National Forest, the District Forester will establish 

 and fix the rates for all grazing periods less than yearlong and will 

 transmit instructions to the Supervisor, who will issue grazing permits 

 in accordance therewith. Fifteen days may be added to the grazing 

 period, in the discretion of the Supervisor, without charge. 



STOCK EXEMPT FROM PERMIT. 



Reg. G-2. All persons must secure permits before grazing any 

 stock in a National Forest, except for the few head in actual use by 

 prospectors, campers, and travelers, or saddle, pack, and work 

 animals actually used in connection with permitted operations on 

 the National Forests, and milch or work animals not exceeding a 

 total of 10 head owned and in use by bona fide settlers residing in or 

 near a National Forest, which require no permit. 



DISTRICTS AND DIVISIONS. 



Reg. G-3. The grazing of sheep and goats upon any portion of a 

 Forest must not be allowed until authorized by the Forester. This 

 authorization secured, the kind of stock to be grazed in each district 

 open to grazing on the Forests will be determined by the District 

 Forester. Under his general instructions, National Forests in which 

 grazing is allowed will be divided into districts by the Supervisor, who 

 wilLprovide for the distribution of stock among the districts, and make 

 such range divisions among applicants for grazing permits as appear 

 most equitable and for the best interests of the National Forest and 

 its users. When required for the protection of camping places, lakes 

 and streams, roads and trails, etc., or of areas which are to be 

 reforested, the Supervisor may exclude stock from specified areas for 

 such period of time as is necessary. Stock will be excluded from areas 

 where they will destroy young growth or will prevent reproduction.
