HR 1110 directs the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Forest Service to develop a plan using livestock grazing to reduce wildfire risk on federal lands. The bill would speed up environmental reviews so ranchers can move animals to unused grazing areas during droughts or natural disasters. It also calls for targeted grazing in high-risk areas, expanded temporary permits to address invasive grasses, and post-fire grazing to aid land recovery.
The bill directly affects ranchers and farmers who hold or seek permits to graze livestock on federal land, as well as Forest Service land managers. People living in fire-prone communities, particularly in western states such as California, Oregon, and Washington, would be indirectly affected.
Dry grasses and brush that livestock would consume are among the fuels that drive wildfires, so the bill's approach links grazing activity to fire hazard levels. Expanding access to currently inactive permit areas and accelerating review timelines could change how quickly and broadly federal land managers can respond to fire risk.
