| Abstract |
The 2004 Capital Budget directed JLARC to look into the question, “Does the grazing program make money for trust beneficiaries?” This study provides a review of the special trust land legal and policy environment in which DNR manages this program, and offers two different perspectives in response to the study mandate: first, a more narrow look at program revenues and expenditures, then a more broad look at an array of costs and benefits through development of a grazing program benefit cost assessment model. The report recommends that DNR should own the model created as a result of this study in order to examine policy and management options as needed. |
