agreements, and will not become permanent until after three years' 

 use of the range. They may, in the discretion of the supervisor, be 

 limited in their initial use of the range to not more than one-half of 

 the number of stock allowed established, bona fide, class A new appli- 

 cants, with the understanding that they will receive annual increases 

 which, at the end of the three-year temporary period, will allow them 

 to graze the same number of stock as other class A new applicants. 

 Subsequent to the expiration of the three-year temporary period their 

 status will be the same as that of other class A new applicants. 



GRAZING PERMITS. 



Issuance of Grazing Permits. 



Upon receipt of notice by the supervisor that the fees have been 

 paid a permit will be issued. It will be prepared in triplicate. The 

 original, accompanied by the original letter 01 transmittal, will be sent 

 to the permittee, one copy to the ranger interested, and one copy 

 filed in the supervisor's office. 

 Herder's Identification Card. 



The owners of stock which is kept under herd upon the National 

 Forests will be furnished with cards (Form 976) for the identification 

 of their herders by Forest officers. 

 When Fee Paid is Less than Amount Due. 



When the amount paid is less than the amount due, the supervisor 

 will notify the applicant to remit the remainder, withholding the per- 

 mit until he does so. If after a reasonable time the applicant fails to 

 remit the additional amount due, the supervisor may issue a permit 

 for the number of stock which the grazing fees paid will cover. 



Issued Only for Authorized Periods. 



Grazing permits will be issued only for authorized periods. If the 

 use of Forest land throughout an established season will be injurious 

 to Forest interests the district forester should be requested to estab- 

 lish a shorter grazing period. 

 Date Yearlong Permits "will Begin. 



Yearlong permits will begin at the opening of the summer grazing 

 season and end on the day preceding the corresponding date of the 

 following year. 

 Designation of Teron Permits. 



Permits based upon term applications will show the term of years 

 and the permits' relation to that term, thus: " Five-year period, first 

 year," or " Three-year period, second year." 

 Special Rules Must be Incorporated in Permit. 



A digest or summary of any special rules which have been estab- 

 lished by the district forester under authority of regulation G-3 must 

 be incorporated in each permit allowing the use of the range district 

 within which the rules are effective. Tins may be typewritten on 

 the reverse of the permit. 

 Range Description in Permit. 



The range to be occupied should be clearly stated in each permit, 

 otherwise a suit for trespass brought against a permittee for grazing 

 his stock on the ranges of others may fail. A description such as 

 "District No. 1" or "Mormon Lake Division" should not be used
