FWP Seeking Comments on Draft Management Plan for Fresno WMA

Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks is seeking public comment on a draft management plan for the Fresno Reservoir Wildlife Management Area (WMA). The comment period will run from March 29, 2017 through April 27, 2017.

The Fresno Reservoir WMA is located in Hill County just upstream of Fresno Reservoir. The WMA is on Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) property, but is managed by FWP under a joint management agreement between FWP and BOR.

The management plan identifies the objectives for wildlife habitat, weed management, infrastructure, and public recreation. The plan also identifies proposed management actions that will be implemented to help achieve these objectives.

The draft management plan will be available on the FWP website at fwp.mt.gov/news/publicNotices/ A copy of the plan may also be obtained by contacting the FWP Havre Area Office at 406-265-6177 or by emailing shemmer@mt.gov.
