Good Neighbor Authority
Good Neighbor Authority, as authorized in the 2018 USDA Farm Bill, enables State, County, and Tribal Agencies to work collaboratively with the USDA Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management across land ownership types to perform restoration work on forests, grasslands, and watersheds. In Wyoming, the following State Agencies have Good Neighbor authority Agreements with the Forest Service and BLM: Wyoming State Forestry Division, Wyoming Game and Fish Department, and Wyoming Department of Agriculture. Counties and Tribes may enter into Good Neighbor Agreements directly with authorized federal agencies.
