Pinedale District Ranger Rob Hoelscher of the Bridger-Teton National Forest has signed the final record of decision for the Upper Green River Area Rangeland Project. The project allows for continued cattle and horse grazing on 170,643 acres in the Upper Green River watershed. Hoelscher selected alternative three, which allows livestock grazing to continue on all six allotments. The decision uses livestock management strategies designed to sustain rangeland and riparian health, while improving resource conditions where needed. In making the final decision, Hoelscher considered the environmental analysis, public comment, consultation with cooperators and federal agencies, as well as discussions from pre-decisional administrative review or objection processes. In making his decision, Hoelscher says, “Grazing is an appropriate use of the National Forest and is important to the community economically and socially.”
