Regional Forester Jennifer Eberlien of the U.S. Forest Service’s Pacific Southwest Region recently announced all national forests in California will be closed, although it will not affect grazing permittees.
The closures will last through Sept. 17, unless extended further. California Cattlemen’s Association (CCA) noted prior orders have exempted “persons with a Forest Service non-special-use written authorization to conduct nonrecreational activities, such as harvesting timber or forest products or grazing livestock.”
Contact the CCA office at 916-444-0845 with any questions or concerns regarding the closures or wildfires.
