Page A-12 Dui«»'» J mum • W¿c nay. February 15. 2005 MFWP accepts comments on assessment of area river rules Montana Kish. Wildlife and Parks will accept public comment on an environmental assessment of the rules governing recreational use mi the Beaverhead and Big Hole Rivers in southwest Montana. The environmental assessment was prepared to evaluate proposed amendments to the rules based on the recommendations of the Beaverhead and Big Hole Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC). The amendments would change or eliminate some of the restrictions on float outfitting, create temporary client days for one-boat outfitters, and retain the remaining elements of the current rules. “The Citi/.en Advisory Committee did an excellent job of address ing key river recreation issues in their recommended rules. We look forward to public comments on their proposal, as well as the other alternatives,\ said Pat Flowers, FWP Region 3 Supervisor. The four alternatives include: 1) Retaining existing rules; 2) Adopt ing the recommendations of the CAC; 3) Adopting the recommenda tions of the CAC with one modification to float restrictions; and 4) eliminating the rules entirely. KWP is recommending a modification to the CAC’s proposal to keep the prohibition of float outfitting between Tash Bridge and Selway Bridge. “We felt the potential impacts on the fishery and the clear intent in the Beaverhead County Resource Use Plan support a continuation of the closure to float outfitting,\ Flowers said. Public comment will be accepted until 5 p.m. on March 11,2005 and should be mailed to: Charlie Sperry, MT KWP, PO Box 200701, Helena, MT 59620-0701 or emailed to: csperrytp'mt.gov.

Hollifield has been an inspector for the 10 years and conducts home inspections for buyers of new and existing homes in southwest ern Montana. On addition, homeowners are urged to have a qualified home in spection every five to seven years to learn of possible maintenance or safety issues as the home ages.

Last month Jessie Kramer went to a clinic by Joani Kissock. Katherine Korpi, Jessie Kramer and Justin Korpi went to the KMON livestock judging in Great Falls. Kallie Kent went to the steer weigh in day. Chelsea Owen went to an archery clinic. Jessie Kramer talked on the radio about her dog project. And on the 20th of February Claire Larson is going to Ukraine. After the meeting was adjourned Kallie Kent, Chelsea Owen, and Morgan Larson did a demonstration about how to show a steer. We also played a game, that was really fun. The sixth meeting will be on March 7, 2005 at 7 p.m. at the 4-H building. Dillon Hi-Lighters By: Jadon Nichols, Reporter This is Jadon Nichols reporting the Dillon Hi-Lighters happenings. We had lots to discuss at our last meeting. We are planning a party for our club. Some of the ideas we have are a treasure hunt, bowling, swimming, a picnic, skiing, and go-carts. We are kind of leaning towards a picnic with a treasure hunt, fun and games. Our parties are always a blast, so we are all looking forward to this fun time. We had a guest speaker at our meeting, Mr. Ken Scalzone. He gave an interesting talk about soil. We learned about many types of rock and soil. Thank you Mr. Scalzone! We also had two demonstrations given by our club members. Ali Pelletier did her demonstration about rock climbing. She taught us about rock climbing safety. Ali did a great job, thanks Ali! Carl Gunderson did his demonstration about baritones. A baritone is a musical instrument. We all learned about how a baritone works, and how to clean it. Carl got a very red face when he tried to play it. It was fun, thanks Carl. The Schwandt girls were the hosts at our meeting. They baked some delicious brownies, thanks girls! The 29th of January was The Day of Discovery. The Day of Discov ery was held at the middle school. There were all kinds of workshops for 4-Hers to attend. Several 4-Hers helped out this year by giving presentations about their projects. I got to show my Silkie, Black Velvet. The most popular workshop was a real life Monopoly game. We learned (some of the hard way) all about education, credit cards, money, and spending. In the end, we all agreed that credit cards were a bad idea if you couldn't pay your balance at the end of the month. So long, until next time! The Riverside Wranglers By: Ashley Moon, Reporter This month our 4-H meeting was held on January 25 at seven o'clock. We took roll call in which we had to answer the question, \Have you started any 4-H projects, and what are they?\ The Pledge of Allegiance was led by Ashley Moon, and the 4-H Pledge was led by Laura Anderson. All of those present included Laura Anderson, Deiadre and Dustie Dallaserra, Nadine Dietrich, Lauretta Hill, Kaitlin Kimzey, Reba Kluesner, Ashley Moon, Garrett Pierce, Rebecca Rillema, Faith Tash, and our leader, Estelle Hill, and our organizational leader, Debbie Pierce. Then, we discussed old business, such as what progress we were making, and new business, such as where, when and what we were going to do for our Valentine's Dinner. After we were through, re freshments were served by Dustie Dallaserra By J.P. Tanner, County Extension Agent Making your views known During this legislative session I thought I would take time to talk about becoming involved. There are many ways that citizens in Beaverhead County can participate in the political process We do need to remember that political decisions will be made whether or not we participate. Organizations with a large number of people will have more of an effect on our legislators and officials, than a single person. Letters can be an effective way to make your views known to your elected government officials. A sincere letter written in your own words will have a more profound impact than a form letter If timing is critical sending a i r mail is an effective way to communicate your views on important issues. The telephone can also be used to communicate your views, but the telephone should not replace emails or written letters. A' personal visit to a member of congress or a legislator can be the most effective way to communicate your views and concerns. If you are knowledgeable on a particular subject you may be asked to testify before a legislative committee. To be successful you must show how your interests coincide with those of the people you are trying to inform. Your organization may need to support programs or proposals of other organizations to win their support of your efforts. If you feel your legislators are doing a good job, are you helping them to win re-election? Or if you think that they do not represent what you believe, are you helping elect candidates who more closely have your viewpoint. To successfully make your view known, you must know how to gain access to the decision makers. Stay abreast of current issues and developments by taking part in educational programs and policy discussions; and attend all public meetings on policy held by local grass-root organizations. This information was taken from MSV Montguide 8422. The pro grams of the MSU Extension Service are available to all people re gardless of race, creed, color, sex. disability, or national origin. Please contact the Beaverhead County extension Service if you have any questions or comments at 683-3785 or by e-mail at beaverhead @montana.edu.

Burping planned along pass» Forest Service seeks comments The Forest Service hopes to burn about 135 acres near Bad ger Pass as soon as the weather is favorable this spring. The area lies 15 miles west of Dillon. Targeted for burning are ar eas that were once grass and sage brush but now are turning into forests of Douglas fir trees. “Burning here would remove the trees and make conditions very good for grasses and other plants that should be there,\ Tom Church plans weekly Lenten breakfasts Food, fun and fellowship may be found at the First Presbyte rian Church this Lenten season. All are welcome to visit for break fast in the Fellowship Hall at the church each Wednesday morning during the season of Lent. Breakfast will be served from 7 a.m. to 8 a.m..

Donations to help cover the cost Osen, the Forest Service district ranger in Dillon said.
