Sec. 292.48  Grazing activities.

    The following standards and guidelines apply to domestic livestock 
grazing activities on Other Lands, Wild and Scenic Rivers, and 
Wilderness Lands in the HCNRA.
    (a) Grazing may be authorized only on rangeland determined by the 
authorized officer to be suitable for grazing and meeting or moving 
towards satisfactory condition and meeting the conditions described in 
paragraph (b) of this section.
    (b) Where domestic livestock grazing is incompatible with the 
protection, restoration, or maintenance of fish and wildlife or their 
habitats; public outdoor recreation; conservation of scenic, wilderness, 
and scientific values; rare combinations of outstanding ecosystems, or 
the protection and enhancement of the values for which a wild and scenic 
river was designated, the livestock use shall be modified as necessary 
to eliminate or avoid the incompatibility. In the event an 
incompatibility persists after the modification or modification is not 
feasible, the livestock use shall be terminated.
    (c) Range improvements must be designed and located to minimize 
their impact on scenic, cultural, fish and wildlife, and other resources 
in the HCNRA.
    (d) The authorization of grazing use, through a grazing permit, must 
provide for terms and conditions which protect and conserve riparian 
areas.
