RANGELAND PROGRAM SUMMARY UPDATE 
 

for the 
 

CODY FIELD OFFICE 
 

INTRODUCTION 

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) issued a draft Resource Management Plan / Environmental Impact 

Statement (RMP/EIS) for the Cody Resource Area (now Cody Field Office) in January 1988. After addressing the 

concerns received during the public comment period, the Proposed RMP/Final EIS was issued in August 1988. The 

subsequent Record of Decision / Approved Resource Management Plan (ROD/ARMP) was signed in November 

1990 and is currently in use. 

The Rangeland Program Summary (RPS) was signed in September 1991. Its purpose was to make public: (1) 

provisions of the livestock grazing section of the RMP/EIS; (2) BLM’s rangeland resource management objectives; 

and (3) actions required to meet the plan’s objectives. 

During the development of the Cody ARMP livestock grazing was authorized on 1,081,249 acres of public land 

segregated into 212 allotments. A total of 90,895 AUMs (animal unit months)

1

 were authorized of which 66,976 

were for cattle, 23,017 were for sheep, and 902 were for horses (Table G-1 of the Cody ARMP, pp. 78-82). 

By the completion of the RPS in 1991, the area authorized for livestock grazing had been reduced to 1,065,255 acres 

segregated into 217 allotments. Total authorized AUMs were reduced to 83,389 of which 66,273 were for cattle, 

16,119 were for sheep, and 997 were for horses (Appendix A, Table A-2 of the Cody RPS pp. 16-21). 

Since the 1991 RPS there have been many changes to livestock grazing activities. This document reflects those 

changes and updates the Cody RPS and ARMP as authorized in BLM Manual H-4160-1. 

CURRENT RANGELAND MANAGEMENT PROGRAM 

Presently, the Cody Field Office administers 233 al1otments covering 1,103,966 acres. Within the boundary of the 

field office, 225 allotments are administered covering 1,056,941 acres. Three of these allotments lie partially within 

the boundary of the Billings Field Office adding 27,318 acres of public land administered by the Cody Field Office. 

Outside of the boundary, the Cody Field Office administers 7 allotments with 12,034 acres within the boundary of 

the Worland Field Office and 1 allotment with 2,661 acres within the boundary of the Billings Field Office. A total 

of 80,553 AUMs active preference are available on lands administered by the Cody Field Office. Table 1 provides a 

summary of this information (see Cody Field Office Grazing Allotments map for the location of the allotments).

Cody/Billings 3 51,1642 

Billings 1 2,661 

Worland 7 17,046 

Total 233 1,103,966 

Within the boundary of the Cody Field Office, the Billings Field Office administers two allotments with 5,882 acres 

of public lands and the Worland Field Office administers 5 allotments with 12,034 acres of public lands that are 

within the boundary of the Cody Field Office. 

Since the issuance of the RPS, there have been numerous changes in the management of livestock in the planning 

area, all of which meet the objectives of the ARMP (see Appendix A). These actions vary from changes in class or 

kind of livestock and seasons of use to actual rescheduling and allotment boundary adjustments. 

Adjustments in active preference were negotiated with the affected parties and implemented in accordance with 43 

CFR 4100 regulations which resulted in a reduction from 83,389 AUMs in 1991 to the current level of 80,553 

AUMs. Adjustments were also implemented based on transfers of BLM-administered lands to nonfederal 

ownership (bentonite patent lands), land exchanges and land acquisitions. These adjustments decreased the public 

land authorized for livestock grazing use from 1,065,255 acres to 1,056,941 acres within the boundary of the Cody 

Field Office. Once the ownership of the surface changes to private, the AUMs obtained can no longer be authorized 

by the BLM. These adjustments affect both total preference and active preference. A narrative section has been 

included in Table A-1 of Appendix A which explains the specific changes made by allotment since the ARMP. 

Table A-2 of Appendix A lists the current livestock grazing information specific to each allotment in the planning 

area. 

Livestock grazing on specific allotments is authorized during different seasons. The grazing seasons vary with 

elevation and/or geographical change, resource needs, and user preference. The higher elevation allotments are 

generally grazed during summer and/or fall. The lower elevation areas may be grazed during any season. The 

majority of the allotments in the Cody Field Office are operating under a rotational grazing strategy which provides 

for plant recovery to enhance rangeland health. When rangelands are not meeting resource objectives, changes in 

grazing management are implemented. 

Standards and Guidelines 

According to the Department of the Interior’s final rule for grazing administration, effective August 21, 1995, the 

Wyoming BLM State Director is responsible for the development of standards for healthy rangelands and guidelines 

for livestock grazing management on 18 million acres of Wyoming’s public rangelands. The development and 

application of these standards and guidelines are to achieve the four fundamentals of rangeland health outlined in the 

grazing regulations (43 CFR 4180.1) which are: (1) watersheds are functioning properly; (2) water, nutrients, and 

energy are cycling properly; (3) water quality meets State standards; and (4) habitat for special status species is 

protected. 

2 Within the acres allotments shared with the Billings Field Office, 23,846 acres are in Wyoming and 27,318 acres 

are in Montana.

CODY RANGELAND PROGRAM SUMMARY UPDATE 
 

In 1997, the Wyoming BLM issued a pamphlet entitled Standards for Healthy Rangelands and Guidelines for 

Livestock Grazing Management for Public Lands Administered by the Bureau of Land Management in the State of 

Wyoming. In this document, the six standards and nine guidelines (S&G’s) were described. 

The Cody ARMP was amended by the BLM in March 2000 to restore 149,783 acres of BOR land back to the BLM. 

Appendix 1 of that document incorporated the S&G’s into the Cody ARMP. 

Standards address the health, productivity, and sustainability of the BLM administered public rangelands and 

represent the minimum acceptable conditions for the public rangelands. The standards apply to all resource uses on 

public lands. Their application will be determined as use-specific guidelines are developed. Standards are 

synonymous with goals and are observed on a landscape scale. They describe healthy rangelands rather than 

important rangeland by-products. The achievement of a standard is determined by observing, measuring, and 

monitoring appropriate indicators. An indicator is a component of a system whose characteristics (e.g., presence, 

absence, quantity, and distribution) can be observed, measured, or monitored based on sound scientific principles. 

Standard 1 

Within the potential of the ecological site (soil type, landform, climate, and geology), soils are stable and allow for 

water infiltration to provide for optimal plant growth and minimal surface runoff. 

THIS MEANS THAT: 

The hydrologic cycle will be supported by providing for water capture, storage, and sustained release. Adequate 

energy flow and nutrient cycling through the system will be achieved as optimal plant growth occurs. Plant 

communities are highly varied within Wyoming. 

INDICATORS MAY INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: 

• Water infiltration rates; 

• Soil compaction; 

• Erosion (rills, gullies, pedestals, capping); 

• Soil micro-organisms; 

• Vegetative cover (gully bottoms and slopes); and 

• Bare ground and litter. 

The above indicators are applied as appropriate to the potential of the ecological site. 

Standard 2 

Riparian and wetland vegetation has structural, age, and species diversity characteristic of the stage of channel 

succession and is resilient and capable of recovering from natural and human disturbance in order to provide forage 

and cover, capture sediment, dissipate energy, and provide for groundwater recharge. 

THIS MEANS THAT: 

Wyoming has highly varied riparian and wetland systems on public lands. These systems vary from large rivers to 

small streams and from springs to large wet meadows. These systems are in various stages of natural cycles and 

may also reflect other disturbance that is either localized or widespread throughout the watershed. Riparian 

vegetation captures sediments and associated materials, thus enhancing the nutrient cycle by capturing and utilizing 

nutrients that would otherwise move through a system unused. 

3 
 
CODY RANGELAND PROGRAM SUMMARY UPDATE 
 

INDICATORS MAY INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: 

• Erosion and deposition rate; 

• Channel morphology and floodplain function; 

• Channel succession and erosion cycle; 

• Vegetative cover; 

• Plant composition and diversity (species, age class, structure, successional stages, desired plant community, etc.); 

• Bank stability; 

• Woody debris and instream cover; 

• Bare ground and litter. 

The above indicators are applied as appropriate to the potential of the ecological site. 

Standard 3 

Upland vegetation on each ecological site consists of plant communities appropriate to the site which are resilient, 

diverse, and able to recover from natural and human disturbance. 

THIS MEANS THAT: 

In order to maintain desirable conditions and/or recover from disturbance within acceptable timeframes, plant 

communities must have the components present to support the nutrient cycle and adequate energy flow. Plants 

depend on nutrients in the soil and energy derived from sunlight. Nutrients stored in the soil are used over and over 

by plants, animals, and microorganisms. The amount of nutrients available and the speed with which they cycle 

among plants, animals, and the soil are fundamental components of rangeland health. The amount, timing, and 

distribution of energy captured through photosynthesis are fundamental to the function of rangeland ecosystems. 

INDICATORS MAY INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: 

• Vegetative cover; 

• Plant composition and diversity (species, age class, structure, successional stages, desired plant community, etc.); 

• Bare ground and litter; 

• Erosion (rills, gullies, pedestals, capping); and 

• Water infiltration rates. 

The above indicators are applied as appropriate to the potential of the ecological site. 

Standard 4 

Rangelands are capable of sustaining viable populations and a diversity of native plant and animal species 

appropriate to the habitat. Habitats that support or could support threatened species, endangered species, species of 

special concern, or sensitive species will be maintained or enhanced. 

THIS MEANS THAT: 

The management of Wyoming rangelands will achieve or maintain adequate habitat conditions that support diverse 

plant and animal species. These may include listed threatened or endangered species (U.S. Fish and Wildlifedesignated), species of special concern (BLM-designated), and other sensitive species (State of Wyomingdesignated). The intent of this standard is to allow the listed species to recover and be delisted, and to avoid or 

prevent additional species becoming listed. 

4 
 
CODY RANGELAND PROGRAM SUMMARY UPDATE 
 

INDICATORS MAY INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: 

• Noxious weeds; 

• Species diversity; 

• Age class distribution; 

• All indicators associated with the upland and riparian standards; 

• Population trends; and 

• Habitat fragmentation. 

The above indicators are applied as appropriate to the potential of the ecological site. 

Standard 5 

Water quality meets State standards. 

THIS MEANS THAT: 

The State of Wyoming is authorized to administer the Clean Water Act. BLM management actions or use 

authorizations will comply with all Federal and State water quality laws, rules and regulations to address water 

quality issues that originate on public lands. Provisions for the establishment of water quality standards are included 

in the Clean Water Act, as amended, and the Wyoming Environmental Quality Act, as amended. Regulations are 

found in Part 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations and in Wyoming's Water Quality Rules and Regulations. The 

latter regulations contain Quality Standards for Wyoming Surface Waters. 

Natural processes and human actions influence the chemical, physical, and biological characteristics of water. 

Water quality varies from place to place with the seasons, the climate, and the kind substrate through which water 

moves. Therefore, the assessment of water quality takes these factors into account. 

INDICATORS MAY INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: 

• Chemical characteristics (e.g., pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen); 

• Physical characteristics (e.g., sediment, temperature, color); and 

• Biological characteristics (e.g., macro- and micro-invertebrates, fecal coliform, and plant and animal species). 

Standard 6 

Air quality meets State standards. 

THIS MEANS THAT: 

The State of Wyoming is authorized to administer the Clean Air Act. BLM management actions or use 

authorizations will comply with all Federal and State air quality laws, rules, regulations and standards. Provisions 

for the establishment of air quality standards are included in the Clean Air Act, as amended, and the Wyoming 

Environmental Quality Act, as amended. Regulations are found in Part 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations and in 

Wyoming Air Quality Standards and Regulations.

CODY RANGELAND PROGRAM SUMMARY UPDATE 
 

INDICATORS MAY INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: 

• Particulate matter; 

• Sulfur dioxide; 

• Photochemical oxidants (ozone); 

• Volatile organic compounds (hydrocarbons); 

• Nitrogen oxides; 

• Carbon monoxide; 

• Odors; and 

• Visibility. 

Guidelines provide for, and guide the development and implementation of, reasonable, responsible, and 

cost-effective management practices at the grazing allotment and watershed level. The guidelines in this document 

apply specifically to livestock grazing management practices on the BLM administered public lands. These 

management practices will either maintain existing desirable conditions or move rangelands toward statewide 

standards within reasonable timeframes. Appropriate guidelines will ensure that the resultant management practices 

reflect the potential for the watershed, consider other uses and natural influences, and balance resource goals with 

social, cultural/historic, and economic opportunities to sustain viable local communities. Guidelines, like standards, 

apply statewide. 

Guidelines For Livestock Management 

1. Timing, duration, and levels of authorized grazing will ensure that adequate amounts of vegetative ground cover, 

including standing plant material and litter, remain after authorized use to support infiltration, maintain soil 

moisture storage, stabilize soils, allow the release of sufficient water to maintain system function, and to maintain 

subsurface soil conditions that support permeability rates and other processes appropriate to the site. 

2. Grazing management practices will restore, maintain, or improve riparian plant communities. Grazing 

management strategies consider hydrology, physical attributes, and potential for the watershed and the ecological 

site. Grazing management will maintain adequate residual plant cover to provide for plant recovery, residual 

forage, sediment capture, energy dissipation, and groundwater recharge. 

3. Range improvement practices (instream structures, fences, water troughs, etc.) in and adjacent to riparian areas 

will ensure that stream channel morphology (e.g., gradient, width/depth ratio, channel roughness and sinuosity) 

and functions appropriate to climate and landform are maintained or enhanced. The development of springs, 

seeps, or other projects affecting water and associated resources shall be designed to protect the ecological and 

hydrological functions, wildlife habitat, and significant cultural, historical, and archaeological values associated 

with the water source. Range improvements will be located away from riparian areas if they conflict with 

achieving or maintaining riparian function. 

4. Grazing practices that consider the biotic communities as more than just a forage base will be designed in order to 

ensure that the appropriate kinds and amounts of soil organisms, plants, and animals to support the hydrologic 

cycle, nutrient cycle, and energy flow are maintained or enhanced. 

5. Continuous season-long or other grazing management practices that hinder the completion of plants' lifesustaining reproductive and/or nutrient cycling processes will be modified to ensure adequate periods of rest at the 

appropriate times. The rest periods will provide for seedling establishment or other necessary processes at levels 

sufficient to move the ecological site condition toward the resource objective and subsequent achievement of the 

standard. 

6 
 
CODY RANGELAND PROGRAM SUMMARY UPDATE 
 

6. Grazing management practices and range improvements will adequately protect vegetative cover and physical 

conditions and maintain, restore, or enhance water quality to meet resource objectives. The effects of new range 

improvements (water developments, fences, etc.) on the health and function of rangelands will be carefully 

considered prior to their implementation. 

7. Grazing management practices will incorporate the kinds and amounts of use that will restore, maintain, or 

enhance habitats to assist in the recovery of Federal threatened and endangered species or the conservation of 

federally-listed species of concern and other State-designated special status species. Grazing management 

practices will maintain existing habitat or facilitate vegetation change toward desired habitats. Grazing 

management will consider threatened and endangered species and their habitats. 

8. Grazing management practices and range improvements will be designed to maintain or promote the physical and 

biological conditions necessary to sustain native animal populations and plant communities. This will involve 

emphasizing native plant species in the support of ecological function and incorporating the use of non-native 

species only in those situations in which native plant species are not available in sufficient quantities or are 

incapable of maintaining or achieving properly functioning conditions and biological health. 

9. Grazing management practices on uplands will maintain desired plant communities or facilitate change toward 

desired plant communities. 

Currently, the Cody Field Office has reviewed 108 allotments containing 676,431 acres of public land for 

conformance with the six standards. A list of allotments and the findings of the survey is located in Appendix C. 

Riparian Wetland Initiative 

Technical Reference 1737-9 (1995 revision) Riparian Area Management Process for Assessing Proper Functioning 

Condition states: 

In 1991, the BLM Director approved the Riparian-Wetland Initiative for the 1990’s which establishes 
 

national goals and objective for managing riparian-wetland resources on public lands. One of the
 

chief goals of this initiative is to restore and maintain riparian-wetland areas so that 75 percent or 
 

more are in proper functioning condition (PFC) by 1997. The overall objective of this goal is to
 

achieve or advance ecological status, except where resource management objectives, including PFC,
 

would require an earlier successional stage, thus providing the widest variety of vegetation and habitat
 

diversity for wildlife, fish, and watershed protection. This objective is important to remember because
 

riparian-wetland areas will function properly long before they achieve an advanced ecological status. 
 

This initiative requires the BLM to inventory all of its riparian resources for their condition. Three basic states or 

conditions were used and are defined as follows: 

Proper Functioning Condition (PFC): Riparian-wetland areas are functioning properly when adequate vegetation, 

landform, and//or large woody debris is present to dissipate stream energy associated with high waterflows, thereby 

reducing erosion and improving water quality; filter sediment, capture bedload, and aid floodplain development; 

improve flood-water retention and ground-water recharge; develop ponding and channel characteristics to provide 

the habitat and the water depth, duration and temperature necessary for fish production, waterfowl breeding, and 

other uses; and support greater biodiversity. The functioning condition of riparian-wetland areas is a result of 

interaction among geology, soil, water, and vegetation. 

Functional – At Risk (FAR): Riparian-wetland areas that are in functional condition but an existing soil, water, or 

vegetation attribute makes them susceptible to degradation. 

7 
 
CODY RANGELAND PROGRAM SUMMARY UPDATE 
 

Nonfunctional: Riparian-wetland areas that clearly are not providing adequate vegetation, landform, or large woody 

debris to dissipate stream energy associated with high flows and thus are not reducing erosion, improving water 

quality, etc., as listed above. The absence of certain physical attributes such as a floodplain where one should be are 

indicators of nonfunctioning conditions. 

Since the start of the riparian wetland initiative, 199 allotments have been inspected for riparian habitat. Of these, 

140 allotments were found to have riparian resources while 59 allotments did not. Of the 530 miles of streams 

surveyed, 17 percent were in proper functioning condition, 71% were functioning at risk and 12% were 

nonfunctional. Of the 106 ponds and seeps inventoried, 9% were in proper functioning condition, 89% were 

functioning at risk and 2% were nonfunctional. For a summary by allotment, see Appendix D. 

CONSULTATION, COORDINATION, COOPERATION, AND 

CONSERVATION (CCCC) 

Since the development of the RPS, the BLM has added an additional criteria to its CCC, that of conservation. The 

addition of conservation, or now CCCC (four C’s), recognizes the importance of preservation, conservation, and 

development of the Nation’s resources. 

During the implementation of the management plan and collection of appropriate monitoring data, the BLM is 

committed to the four C’s approach with all resource users. The grazing operators, the Wyoming Game & Fish 

Department, and the BLM are the most involved participants; however, comments are welcome from any interested 

party. This type of interaction will be used to encourage their involvement in (1) collecting and analyzing 

monitoring data, (2) establishing meaningful objectives in management plans, and (3) the review and revision of 

management actions to ensure that established objectives are being accomplished. 

PLAN IMPLEMENTATION 

Allotment Priorities 

Priorities for allotment monitoring and management implementation were established by the ARMP. This 

prioritization is still considered today, but influenced by findings from standards and guidelines, riparian inventories, 

threatened and endangered species, permit/lease expiration, and other resource requirements 

Range Improvements 

The general types and procedures involved in the development of both structural and vegetative manipulations are 

discussed in detail in appendix G, page 94-96, of the Cody ARMP. The actual numbers and types of projects are 

determined on an allotment-by-allotment and/or landscape basis and are identified during the monitoring phase of an 

allotment. 

Since the implementation of the RMP and the issuance of the 1991 RPS, over 200 projects have been approved in 

the Cody Field Office area. The projects include many vegetative treatment projects using prescribed fire, mowing 

or other tools to modify plant communities to enhance rangeland health. There are also several projects which 

resulted in the replacement and/or modification of existing fences. This has provided an opportunity to change 

fences from less wildlife friendly designs, such as net wire, to designs that more readily allow wildlife passage. 

Appendix D contains a summary of the projects that have been approved in the Cody Field office since 1991.

PROBLEMS, CONFLICTS, AND OPPORTUNITIES IN 
 

LIVESTOCK GRAZING MANAGEMENT 
 

Table 1 of this appendix lists the types of problems and conflicts that can occur in livestock grazing management 

that were identified in the ARMP. Management opportunities for actions to improve management and resolve 

conflicts also are listed by number. 

Table 2 of this appendix is an allotment specific listing of livestock grazing problems and conflicts in the planning 

area and the management opportunities to alleviate the conflicts. Added to this table is a list of the conflicts that 

have been addressed since the 1991 RPS. The referenced allotments are presently in the "I" category or have 

existing AMP’s requiring modification.

Types of Problems and Conflicts	 

5.	 Occupation of this allotment by wildlife during 

tradition livestock grazing periods has resulted in 

dietary overlaps and forage competition in one or 

more of the following. 

a. 	 Pronghorn f. Spring, summer conflict 

b. 	 Mule deer g. Winter, fall conflict 

c. 	 Elk h. Insufficient grasses 

d. 	 Bighorn sheep i. Insufficient forbs 

e. 	 Moose j. Insufficient shrubs 

6.	 The existing AMP is no longer meeting the 

management needs to objectives set forth for this 

allotment. 

7.	 Certain portions of this allotment have excessive 

sagebrush canopy, which reduces the amount of 

desirable forage available for both wildlife and 

livestock. 

8. 	 Excessive soil erosion is occurring on certain 

portions of the allotment because of a lack of 

vegetative cover. 

9.	 Continuous early spring grazing is resulting in 

stress to desirable forage species that require rest 

or regrowth opportunities during this critical 

growing period. 

10. Trailing requirements through this allotment have	 

resulted in overutilization of route areas and the 

mixing of existing livestock. 

11. Plant and animal pests have posed a problem to the	 

livestock and vegetative productivity of the 

allotment. 

12. Recreational activities by the public are resulting	 

in gates being left open. This causes livestock to 

drift in and out of authorized areas. 

Management Opportunities 

5. Monitor actual number of both livestock and 

wildlife during critical periods to determine 

appropriate or acceptable levels. Actions may then 

be necessary to redistribute large concentration of 

animals. 

6. Revise existing AMP to meet the operator's needs 

to develop a system that will enhance livestock 

grazing use and other resource values. 

7. Improve forage quality through the 

implementation of various vegetative 

manipulations such as prescribed burning or 

ripping and seeding. 

8. Improve soil stability on highly erosive soils by 

constructing improvement projects designed to 

provide watershed stability. 

9. Limit the number of livestock on the allotment 

during the critical spring season to a level that will 

provide appropriate utilization objectives. The 

objectives will be developed in consultation and 

coordination with the affected permittee to meet 

the needs of both the operator and the affected 

resource. 

10. Trailing will be authorized on existing stock trails 

consistent with the overall objectives set forth for 

the allotments affected. 

11. Act in cooperation with other affected landowners 

and agencies to control concentrations of noxious 

weeds or pests. 

12. Install cattleguards in various trouble locations to 

minimize the probability of livestock drifting.
