White Bear Fishing Access Site Improvement Project Decision Notice

Dec 6, 2023 3:02 PM

On September 12th, 2023, Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP) issued a draft Checklist Environmental Assessment (EA) for the proposed improvements at White Bear Fishing Access Site (FAS). The proposed improvements consist of safety/security measures and recreational amenities that are intended to address the history of undesirable and illegal public behavior that has led to Montana Fish and Wildlife Commission imposed seasonal closures at the site.

Based on the environmental review provided in the Draft EA, and in accordance with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, and policies, FWP determined the proposed action will not have significant adverse impacts on the human environment associated with the proposed action and constitutes a reasonable and appropriate strategy to achieve identified objectives. Therefore, preparation of an EIS is unnecessary.  

With this action, FWP hereby adopts the Draft EA as final and approves the Alternative 2, the proposed action.
