Title: Grazing Management: Range
Improvements Agreements and Permits
(43 CFR Subpart 4120).
OMB Control Number: 1004–0019.
Summary: This request pertains to
range improvements on public lands
managed by the BLM. Range
improvements enhance or improve
livestock grazing management, improve
watershed conditions, enhance wildlife
habitat, or serve similar purposes. At
times, the BLM may require holders of
grazing permits or gazing leases to
install range improvements to meet the
terms and conditions of their permits or
leases. Operators may also come to the
BLM with proposals for range
improvements. Often the BLM,
operators, and other interested parties
work together and jointly contribute to
construction of range improvements in
order to facilitate improved grazing
management or enhance other multiple
uses. Cooperators may include lenders
which provide the funds that operators
contribute for improvements.
Frequency of Collection: On occasion.
Forms:
• Form 4120–6 (Cooperative Range
Improvement Agreement); and
• Form 4120–7 (Range Improvement
Permit).
Description of Respondents: Holders
of BLM grazing permits or grazing
leases; affected individuals and
households; and affected tribal, state,
and county agencies.
Estimated Annual Responses: 1,110.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours:
