Montanas Fish, Wildlife & Parks Commission will meet in the FWP Helena Headquarters office, 1420 East Sixth Ave., Friday, March 2 beginning at 3 p.m. During this brief meeting, the FWP Commission will take final action on proposed Future Fisheries projects and on the contract for a concession at Tongue River Reservoir State Park. Of the 23 Future Fisheries project proposals evaluated in January by Montanas Future Fisheries review panel, 18 projects requiring about $230,000 in funding will be recommended to the FWP Commission. Future Fisheries Projects are funded under the Future Fisheries Improvement Program created by the 1995 Legislature and under a program to enhance bull trout and cutthroat trout habitat created by the 1999 Legislature. Also on the agenda is tentative approval of a no wake zone proposal for Hell Creek Marina at Fort Peck dam south of Glasgow.
