Cottonwood Islands proposed FAS environmental assessment

Dec 11, 2020 12:00 AM

Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks (FWP) has an opportunity to acquire an island complex in the Yellowstone River downstream of Reed Point, MT.

 The complex could be acquired with mitigation funds administered by the Department of Justice (DOJ) Natural Resource Damage Program (NRDP) as a result of the ExxonMobil Pipeline Company July 1, 2011, Yellowstone River Oil Spill at Laurel.

Public comments on the proposal are due by Jan. 13, 2021
