MONTANA FISH, WILDLIFE AND PARKS
BOZEMAN – Montana
Fish, Wildlife and Parks is seeking public comment on proposals that would
temporarily close two fishing access sites for road construction.
One proposal
would close the Ennis Fishing Access Site, located a half mile south of Ennis
on the Madison River, during a seven-day, early-season construction window
between April 1 and May 15. Another proposal would close the Mallard’s Rest
Fishing Access Site, about 13 miles south of Livingston on the Yellowstone
River, for three weeks between May 1 and June 15.
As there are
no access alternatives to these sites, and for public safety, a full closure in
both sites is required during road construction. FWP will work to notify the
public in advance of these closures.
Comments on these proposals can be submitted in several ways: by email to jpape@mt.gov, by phone at (406) 577-7873, or by writing to Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks, Attn: Jay Pape, 1400 S. 19th Ave., Bozeman, MT 59718.
The deadline
for comments is April 3.
