Livestock Grazing: New Strategy for Wildfire Risk Reduction
This new act requires federal authorities to use livestock grazing to reduce wildfire risk on federal lands. This aims to protect homes and communities from fire and assist in post-fire land management. Citizens may observe changes in how public lands are managed, potentially affecting safety and access to certain areas.
Key points
Federal authorities will develop a strategy to use livestock grazing to remove flammable vegetation, reducing wildfire risk.
The strategy will consider using grazing during droughts, wildfires, and to control invasive grasses like cheatgrass.
Cooperation with local communities, Native American tribes, and firefighting agencies is planned for more effective wildfire management.
