				who generally perform office or administrative support duties. Clerical/support
				staff employees include secretaries and administrative assistants.
(c) "Electronic public record" is a public
				record that is primarily or solely stored in an electronic format. Typically,
				the custodian will only be able to produce a copy of the original electronic
				public record due to the native format, security, and integrity of the original
				data or electronic record.
(d)
				"Information technology staff" are employees who perform duties relating to
				retrieving, compiling, constructing, formatting, or extracting electronic
				public records located on computer systems, software, servers, or networks.

Wyoming Administrative Code › Agency 010 - Agriculture, Dept. of › Sub-Agency 0010 - Rangeland Health Assessment Program › Chapter 15 - REGULATION GOVERNING THE RANGELAND HEALTH ASSESSMENT PROGRAM › Section 15-2 - Purpose

Current through July 13, 2024
(a) To assure the development and use of
				credible data in the assessment of Wyoming Rangelands by providing through the
				Wyoming Department of Agriculture a structured approach that fosters and
				assists in collaborative efforts to monitor rangelands involving, as
				applicable, landowners, lessees, permittees and federal and state land
				agencies.
(b) The short-term goal
				of the program is to sustain viable levels of federal land grazing by providing
				credible data to assist federal land agencies in completing required permit
				National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) analysis and to enable agencies and
				permittees to defend against challenges to grazing permit renewals and
				management plans.
(c) The long-term
				goal of the program is to assess trends in the health of all rangelands and
				assure the use of credible data in making adjustments in their management where
				indicated. Monitoring will help maintain or improve the economic viability of
				the livestock grazing industry and its contribution to the Wyoming
				economy.
(d) These rules are
				adopted in order to provide for a method of application review, recommendation
				for inclusion in the program, and govern the distribution of any available
				funds for on-the-ground projects supporting this program.
Wyoming Administrative Code › Agency 010 - Agriculture, Dept. of › Sub-Agency 0010 - Rangeland Health Assessment Program › Chapter 15 - REGULATION GOVERNING THE RANGELAND HEALTH ASSESSMENT PROGRAM › Section 15-3 - Definitions

Current through July 13, 2024
(a) "Assessment" means any activity conducted
				for assessing rangeland health including, but not limited to, current condition
				and long term health trends.
(b)
				"Audit" means an unbiased examination and evaluation of the governmental agency
				data collected, records, financial accounts, and financial statements
				associated with a RHAP to verify their accuracy.
(c) "Budget" means an itemized summary of
				estimated or intended income and expenditures for a given period.
(d) "Credible data" means scientifically
				valid data collected under an accepted rangeland monitoring plan, including
				quality control, quality assurance procedures, and historical data.
(e) "Cooperative Monitoring" means rangeland
				monitoring established as a planned effort between a land management agency and
				permittees / lessees / landowners, or other partners sharing similar interests.
				The actual monitoring may be carried out jointly or by any individual partner
				with the objective of providing information to all parties to guide decision
				making and adaptive management and to help the parties evaluate relative
				success in applied management, in implementing guidance provided by the grazing
				permit / lease, and in meeting or moving toward mutually designed
				objectives.
(f) "Director" means
				the Director of the Wyoming Department of Agriculture.
(g) "Ecological site" means a distinctive
				kind of land with specific soil and physical characteristics that differs from
				other kinds of land in its ability to produce distinctive kinds and amounts of
				vegetation, and in its ability to respond similarly to management actions and
				natural disturbances. Unlike vegetation classification, ecological site
				classification uses climate, soil, geomorphology, hydrology, and vegetation
				information to describe the ecological potential of land areas. A particular
				ecological site may feature several plant communities (described by vegetation
				classification) that occur over time and/or in response to management
				actions.
(h) "Ecological site
				description" means reports that describe the biophysical properties of
				ecological sites and vegetation and surface soil properties of reference
				conditions that represent either:

				pre-European vegetation and historical range of variation (in the United
				States) OR proper functioning condition or potential natural
				vegetation,
(ii) state-and
				transition model graphics and text, and
(iii) a description of ecosystem services
				provided by the ecological site and other interpretations.
