Montana’s Fish & Wildlife Commission Meeting to Discuss 2013 Upland Bird Regulations

A late addition to Montana’s Fish & Wildlife Commission’s Aug. 8 agenda includes an endorsement of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes upland game bird regulations as recently approved by the Tribal Council.

The meeting will be held in Helena, Thursday, Aug. 8 beginning at 8:30 a.m. at FWP Headquarters, 1420 E. 6^th Ave.

The CSKT upland game bird regulations are the same as Montana’s except for Tribal shooting hours, which run from sunrise to sunset for all game birds, and a requirement that only non-toxic shot be used for all game birds on the Flathead Indian Reservation.

FWP ensures its meetings are fully accessible to those with special needs. To request arrangements call FWP at 406-444-3186.
