FWP seeks comment on Madison River

MONTANA FISH, WILDLIFE AND PARKS

BOZEMAN – Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks is seeking public comments on the recommendations made by the Madison River Citizen Advisory Committee toward FWP’s development of a draft recreation management plan for the Madison River.

Endorsed by the FWP Commission at its May 9 meeting, the recommendations address issues on the Madison as a whole, as well as concerns specific to certain sections of the river and individual fishing access sites. The MCAC took into account all interested parties including anglers, guides and floaters, and their desired conditions for the river going forward.

The recommendations made by the MCAC are available on the FWP website at fwp.mt.gov/recreation/management/madison/. Comments can be submitted at that website, or sent via email to mrrp@mt.gov. All comments must be received by June 21, 2013.

Hard copies of the document are available upon request by contacting Cheryl Morris at cherylmorris@mt.gov.
