Forests in Focus Initiative

Governor Bullock has announced his Forests in Focus Initiative: a strategy to promote forest and watershed restoration, improve wildlife habitat and address the challenges facing Montana forests. It also recognizes the importance of Montana's forest industry in our ability to sustainably manage forests across all ownerships. Click the image above to read about the Initiative and each of its key components.

Fire Prevention and Preparedness

The Department of Natural Resources and Conservation seeks the public's help to be "Fire Smart" throughout July and the rest of the summer. Please remember that both possession and use of fireworks are prohibited on state and federal lands. Each year many fires are started by the careless use of fireworks. Do your part to prevent wildland fires: carry a shovel, bucket, fire extinguisher and have water available.
