MTU and our partners have advocated for accountabi MTU and our partners have advocated for accountability at Montana Tunnels mine for over a decade after the owners of the now defunct project filed for bankruptcy. We’re thrilled that DEQ finally secured the over $20 million for reclamation costs to adequately bond this mine, and hold bad actors responsible. 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼

Water temperatures are falling and Hoot Owl restri Water temperatures are falling and Hoot Owl restrictions have been lifted, with the exception of the lower Madison. Sections of the Beaverhead and Big Hole remain closed due to low flows. Remember to #keepfishwet if you're heading out for the holiday weekend.
