Draft Environmental Assessment Martinsdale Land & Cattle Pond License FWP-CEA-FSH-R4-24-018
May 6, 2024 4:27 PM
A private landowner is applying for a Private Fish Pond License and proposes to stock brown trout, rainbow trout and Yellowstone cutthroat trout. FWP is required to review the potential impacts of issuing a Private Fish Pond License. The pond was originally permitted in 2020 for rainbow trout and brown trout. A new permit is required to add Yellowstone cutthroat trout to the species allowed to be stocked in this pond. The pond is located approximately 300-feet from RM 6.1 of the North Fork Musselshell River on the abandoned Gillis (Sandeno) Ditch in HUC6-Lower North Fork Musselshell River/HUC5-North Fork Musselshell River/HUC4-Upper Musselshell River. Rainbow trout and brown trout are both present in the North Fork Musselshell River drainage.
