OrderSeasonal Hunting Access Restrictions in Musselshell County, MT

概要

The Bureau of Land Management is cooperating with the Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Parks to improve hunting opportunities. Two areas are proposed as Cooperative Management Areas (CMAs); Gage Dome, Graves and Downs. There will be a 30 day comment period, and if no major concerns are expressed, restrictions will go into effect at the end of the comment period. Under the cooperative agreement certain public lands will be closed to motorized vehicles and some will require permission to cross private land to get to them. The purpose of this program is to improve the quality of big game hunting opportunities and provide more area to hunt for the general public. This will be accomplished through increasing the land base, controlling vehicle access and reducing the number of people contacting the private land owner for permission to hunt. The following rules will be in effect during the big game seasons established by the Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Parks.
