The Bureau of Land Management has approved and published a 10-year outcome-based grazing permit across thirteen sheep and cattle allotments totaling 562,287 acres in Lincoln, Nye, and White Pine counties in the Bristlecone Field Office and Basin and Range National Monument management areas. Please contact the Caliente front desk phone: 775-251-5260 or the Ely front desk phone: 775-289-1800 with any questions or issues. 

The permittee and the associated allotments were selected to participate in the BLM Outcome-Based Grazing Authorizations program, which offers a collaborative approach and provide flexibility in grazing use — including potential changes to use levels, livestock type, season of use, and proposed range improvements — to achieve shared resource and operational objectives. Flexibility is needed to adapt and provide timely and responsive adjustments in grazing due to changes in weather, forage production, fire, drought, and other variable range conditions.
