February 13, 2019 – Below are links to all of the sections of the Lower Clark Fork Tributary Watershed Restoration Plan. We have kept the document separated to manage file size and allow stakeholders the opportunity to selectively review the sections of document that are most pertinent to their interests. The link at the bottom of the page will allow you to download all files in a compressed (.zip) folder.
We sincerely value any input that we receive on this document, and hope to finalize it into a meaningful guide for watershed restoration activities in tributaries to the Lower Clark Fork River over the next ten years. Please provide any feedback to us by March 31, 2019. Email us (sarah@lcfwg.org or brita@lcfwg.org) with edits or to arrange an alternative method of file transfer.
