Major changes in the organization and administration of the
Department of Fish and Game resulted from the Executive Reorganiza-
tion Act of 1971. Although the Governor's Reorganization order
did not become effective until July 1, 1972, reorganization had
been largely implemented before that date.
Major organizational changes resulting from reorganization
were: allocation of the Passenger Tramway Safety Board to ad-
ministration of the Department; amalgamation of the Department's
Environmental Resources and Information Divisions; transfer of
the firearms safety training section to the Enforcement Division;
and creation of a Centralized Services Division.
Other major changes resulting from the Executive Reorganiza-
tion Act were methods of appointing the Fish and Game Commission
5
and the State Fish and Game Director, and tenures of Commissioners
and the Director.
For administrative purposes, the state has been divided into
seven regions with a headquarters in each region. Since the Fish
and Game Commission is responsible for supervision over the wild-
life of the state, region boundaries have necessarily been based
largely upon game and fish distribution and in turn geological
features. Headquarters are located at Kalispell (Region 1),
Missoula (Region 2), Bozeman (Region 3), Great Falls (Region 4),
Billings (Region 5) , Glasgow (Region 6) , and Miles City (Re-
gion 7) ,
Division administrators compose the Director's staff. The
staff plans, coordinates and budgets the Department's programs
under supervision of the Department Director.
CENTRALIZED SERVICES DIVISION
The Centralized Services Program is essentially an adminis-
trative and service unit supervised by the deputy director. It
provides direct supervision over accounting, property and pur-
chasing, personnel, licensing, land acquisition and supporting
services.
This division was created under reorganization by bringing
together administrative and supporting responsibilities which had
been formerly scattered among other programs within the department.
A major step in accounting was accomplished by implementation
of the statewide budgeting and accounting system as directed by
the state controller.
Warehouse accounting took advantage of the department's
N.C.R. machinery to prepare their own tab cards on property re-
cords. This has materially limited errors in preparation of ^
the cards. Printouts from these cards are made available through
the Data Processing Center.
License dealer accounting was programmed through the N.C.R.
400 to speed up and improve the collection of license dealer
accounts.
ENVIRONMENT AND INFORMATION DIVISION

be underestimated.
The long-predicted discovery
of Montana has, alas, arrived. On
one hand Montana is fortunate that
the public is presently environment-
oriented. The massive and poten-
tially destructive impact of land
and resource development will not
go unheralded or unnoticed. On the
other hand, however, the proportion
of changes to come are likely to
Initial impacts on Montana's environment are being felt
most from the standpoint of land speculation, especially recrea-
tional lands, and mineral development notably stripping of coal
in eastern Montana.
The Department's previous Environmental Resources and In-
formation Divisions have been combined into one Environment and
Information Division. This division assists in the protection
of Montana's natural environment, with emphasis on fish and
wildlife habitat. It does so through administration of the
Stream Preservation Law, through special planning projects and
by reviewing projects occurring within the state. The division
offers technical assistance to other agencies and to organiza-
tions involved with the environment.
8
The division also provides programs of public information
through such media as newspapers, radio, television, magazines,
youth and school programs, correspondence, a film library,
and personal contacts. Movie films are in continuous produc-
tion and a full-color magazine is published bimonthly.
Now that the public has become environment conscious,
concerned citizens rightfully expect a cooperative effort
on the part of state agencies and developing industries to
maintain a quality environment. Interagency work on environ-
mental problems is largely coordinated through the Environment
and Information Division.
Fish and game biologists continue to augment the staff
of engineers and sanitarians in the State Department of Health
to round out the pollution control team in Montana. This
working arrangement between the two departments enables Montana
to approach the pollution control problem with a well-rounded
team of technicians.
The department's position on the Advisory Board to the
State Land Commissioner in matters of surface-mined land re-
clamation presents numerous opportunities for wildlife habitat
development to the Fish and Game Department. The cooperative
working arrangement developed with the State Land Commissioner's
office has permitted us to make meaningful recommendations,
not only on surface-mined land reclamation, but also on develop-
ment projects conducted on state lands.
The requirement that Environmental Impact statements must
now be made for any significant state or federal action has
provided additional opportunities for factual input concerning
the environment or habitat needs of fish and wildlife. This
division assists in the preparation of many of these reports and
also reviews and comments on others.
Laws directed toward maintaining and improving environ-
mental quality in Montana include: the Environmental Quality
Council, established by H.B, 66; the Floodway Management Acts,
authorized by H.B, 265; two litter laws, S.B. 138 and H.B. 112;
several mine land reclamation acts, including extraordinary
S.B. 7, S.B. 70, and H.B. 243; new pesticide act, S.B. 126;
an improved stream preservation act, established by S.B. 45;
and an act to keep car bodies out of streams provided through
H.B. 22; and a vastly improved water pollution control act re-
sulting from introduction and passage of H.B. 85. All of these
laws can be made to work if all agencies of state government do
their share in an organized manner.
The department's traditional role in administering the
Stream Preservation Act was expanded slightly by the 42nd
Legislative Assembly, and attention now must be given to not
only state agencies and subdivisions of state government, but
also to federal agencies proposing changes in Montana's stream
courses. Cooperative working arrangements are being worked
out now with federal agencies as well as the traditional ar-
rangements with the state agencies.

FISHERIES DIVISION
Arthur Whitney-
Administrator
Fisheries Division
Prior to Executive Reorganiza-
tion, the Fisheries Division con-
sisted of a fisheries management
section, headed by a chief fisheries
biologist and a hatchery section headed
by a superintendent of fisheries. The
head of the division was called fish-
eries division chief.
Problems with this arrangement
were:
1. The review of other agencies'
water resource development plans during the past several years
began to consume so much of the chief biologist's time he could
not adequately do that job and also keep up with his main func-
tion which is quality control of the division's fishery manage-
ment and research studies.
2. Hatchery production and distribution supervision alone
did not require the full time of one section leader. Therefore,
additional functions, such as supervision of commercial fishing
contracts, preparation of all division construction project
documents and supervision of commercial fisheries federal aid
projects had been added to the function of the superintendent
of fisheries over the years. These additional functions required
a well-trained fisheries biologist for the job. However, such
12
an individual is usually not the best experienced person to
handle the original function of the section (the supervision of
hatchery production and distribution) .
3. The titles of "Fisheries Division Chief" for head of the
division and "Superintendent of Fisheries", which was required
by law for head of the hatchery section were confusing.
In an attempt to solve these problems, the division organiza-
tion was changed under executive reorganization to a Bureau of
Management and Research, headed by a bureau chief who is also
assistant division administrator and a Bureau of Fisheries Services,
headed by a second bureau chief who is assisted by a hatchery
production specialist for the function of fish production and
distribution. The hatchery production specialist serves part
time in that function and part time as manager of one of our
production stations. The Executive Reorganization Act's title
requirements of division administrator and bureau chief have
superseded the old law and solved the superintendent of fisheries —
chief of fisheries title problem.
The Fisheries Program has both fact-finding and action phases.
The fact-finding phase consists of survey and investigational work
under a scheduled program to provide basic data necessary for
management. The action phase includes (1) habitat preservation,
restoration and improvement, (2) population manipulation (i.e.
removing rough fish and chemicals and restocking with game fish,
stocking small game fish in waters where there is iriadequate
reproduction, and introducing new species), (3) planting catchable
13
size trout for "put and take" fishing, (4) developing regulations,
(5) developing commercial fishing of rough fish, (6) determining
needs and making recommendations for fishing access sites and
impoundments to be built for sport fishing.
The Water Resources Division of the Department of Natural
Resources contracted with the Fisheries Division to determine
minimum flows necessary for optimum fish production on the majority
of Montana's fishing streams. These will be used in Montana's
State Water Plan and also incorporated into the Westwide Water
Study being undertaken by federal and state agencies in the
western United States. Recommendations were made on 21 reaches of
stream in the Sun River Planning Unit and on 47 reaches in the
Clark Fork Drainage. Discharge measurements and photographs were
taken on an additional 80 streams across the state for evaluation
of flows.
The final report was prepared for a 10-year creel census on
Rock Creek near Missoula. Catchable-size rainbow trout were
planted during six years of the study. Only 35 percent of the
139,000 planted fish were caught by fishermen. Stocking increased
overall fisherman success; however, more skillful fishermen bene-
fitted much more than the less skillful. This study will be of
great value in establishing fish planting policies.
Gear and methods were developed which allow fisheries per-
sonnel to make valid fish population estimates in the Kootenai
River, a river too large to handle with our previous equipment
and techniques. Estimates were made of fish numbers in Kootenai
14
River immediately downstream from Libby Dam in August, 1971.
These allowed an assessment of the damage Montana is sustaining
from the gas super saturation problem in Kootenai River. This
problem was created when Libby Dam was closed in late March,
1972.
The hatchery water supply at Big Spring Creek Trout Hatchery,
Lewistown, was renovated. Provision was made so only spring water
can be taken into hatchery raceways thus eliminating annual high
water flooding from the creek. Creek water can still be used as
needed.
Fish hatchery production schedules were rearranged so a
substantial initial plant of westslope cutthroat trout could
be made in the newly formed Lake Koocanusa.
Studies on Madison River and O'Dell Creek indicate that sub-
stantial plants of catchable-size hatchery trout cause summer
mortalities in wild trout. Since few planted fish survive over
winter, the net result is a measurable reduction in the trout
population. The implication, if these results are borne out in
other studies, is that "put and take" planting should be restricted
to waters with insignificant wild trout populations.

GAME MANAGEMENT DIVISION
Wynn Freeman
Administrator
Game Management Division
The goal of the Game Manage-
ment Program is to manage and main-
tain Montana's wildlife resource and
its habitat for its intrinsic and
ecological values while providing
maximum recreational, economical,
scientific, and educational op-
portunities to the people of Montana
and the nation.
The specific wildlife resource
management goal is to produce and
maintain a maximum breeding stock of game species on all suitable
lands in Montana and to utilize the annual crops produced by this
stock through recreational hunting and other accepted uses.
Since habitat must be maintained to produce wildlife, another
specific goal of the division is to acquire, develop and maintain
key areas of wildlife habitat. These areas produce wildlife and
also contribute to the recreational, socio-economic and educational
needs of Montana people.
The basis for scientific game management is inventories of
wildlife resources and wildlife habitats. Wildlife surveys and
research throughout the state provide biological information for
game management and other programs with impacts upon wildlife.
21
The major activity of the division during the period was the
continuing surveys and inventory of game populations, habitat and
harvests throughout the state. Most of the manpower and funds
were spent on deer, elk, and antelope surveys. Other game species
and furbearers received attention commensurate with their relative abun-
dance, distribution, status, and problems associated with their
management in the state.
Research was continued on the ecology of sagebrush control in
central Montana. Studies of elk-logging relationships were initiated
in western Montana. Ecological and life history studies were con-
ducted on certain game and plant species.
An indication of the hunting opportunity for game and fur
species in Montana is given by the table of game and fur harvest
estimates. The harvests are influenced by many factors. The type
of hunting season, weather conditions, animal distribution, land-
owner-sportsman relations, and the prices paid for pelts in the
case of fur, affect the harvests obtained each year.
More than one and one-half million man-days of hunting recrea-
tion was generated in 1971 through the harvest of game animals
and birds. The economic worth of the game resource in Montana is
high when the values of man-days spent hunting and the goods,
privileges and services purchased while hunting are considered.
The worth of meat, hides and fur is also important. Game and other
wildlife species also have intangible values such as indicators of
quality environment, enhancement of real estate values, general
aesthetic value, as well as scientific and educational value.
22
The cost of administering and managing the game resource in
Montana has increased. The following tabulation indicates the
recent Game Management expenditures among the principal operation
categories of the division. The division receives a substantial
portion of its funds through Federal Aid via the Pittman-Robertson
Act of 1937. This act provides 75 percent of the funds necessary
to conduct federally-approved projects. The division also parti-
cipates in other Federal Aid programs on a contract basis. For
1972, of the $1,658,966.00, 69 percent or about $1,136,297.00
were federal dollars. Montana has participated in the P-R program
since 1941„
The purchase of the Beartooth Game Range in 1970 increased the
development and maintenance costs of the division. Payments to
the counties in lieu of taxes increased to $34,246.00 in 1971.
Maintenance was accomplished on 100 buildings, 27 miles of dikes,
28 dams, 195 bridges, and culverts, more than 300 miles of roads
and trails, 423 miles of fence, 217 acres of shelter belts, and
4,700 cultivates acres. This work was performed on twenty game
management areas located throughout the state.

Permanent headquarters were maintained on ten separate game
management areas.
The game management areas provided about 117,000 man-days of
recreation, including 44,000 man-days of hunting recreation in
1971.
24
An addition to the Isaac Homestead area amounting to 62*5
acres was purchased in 1970 at a cost of $5,890. A contract to
purchase the Blacktail Game Range was negotiated in 1972. This
19,781 acre game range, located about 30 miles southeast of Dillon
in Beaverhead County, was purchased by the Commission primarily
to provide big game winter range. The purchase price was $720,000.
The first segment, amounting to 5,909 acres, and costing $208,000
was obtained in January, 1972.
The Blacktail Game Range, located on the west slope of the
Gravelly Range is prime winter range. Deer, antelope, moose,
two species of mountain grouse, sage grouse, Hungarian partridge,
and several species of waterfowl, and fur animals are also found
on the range. About 2 3 miles of the East Fork of Blacktail Creek
drainage is located on the range. It provides fishing for cut-
throat, rainbow, brook trout, and whitefish. The acquisition of
this area, in addition to providing wildlife and fish habitat,
also contributes to the hunting and fishing area and access for
sportsmen and other recreationists.

LAW ENFORCEMENT DIVISION
Orville Lewis
Administrator
Law Enforcement Division
Some of the major programs
implemented during the period of
July 1, 1970 - June 30, 1972 in-
cluded the following:
A new outfitter licensing pro-
cedure was established as a result
of the outfitter bill passed by the
1971 legislature. An outfitter sec-
tion has been established, new li-
censes issued, and the program is
now functioning under the new law.
A boat and water safety section was created as a result of
legislative changes and utilization of federal funding from the
Federal Boat Safety Act of 1970. An effective boat and water safety
program has been developed and is now in operation.
During recent years, there has been a growing concern for
the proper public use of the recreational resources within the
boundaries of the various Montana Indian reservations. A program
was initiated this year to develop background information and
cooperative agreements with the various tribes. An important
objective will be the long-term view of proper resource manage-
ment with a maximum of public use.
A new concept was initiated during the biennium of creating
special management areas in which landowners would be given
28
additional assistance in policing their properties in return
for expanded public use of their private lands. A pilot program
was initiated in the Square Butte area.
A program was initiated to develop and implement regulations
required by 1971 legislation governing snowmobile noise level
restrictions .

RECREATION AND PARKS DIVISION
The Recreation and Parks Divi-
sion of the Montana Department of
Fish and Game administers 155 areas
for public outdoor recreation. These
include fishing access sites, state
parks, state monuments, state recrea-
tion areas, recreation waterways,
recreation trails and recreation

roads. New sites are added to the
system as funds become available.
Many of the areas are receiving excessive pressure and
the Department finds it increasingly difficult to maintain quality
recreation sites. New sites need to be added to the system to-
gether with careful site planning to achieve the excellence in
outdoor recreation that Montana is capable of presenting, however;
it must always be remembered that development of a new area will
always increase the operation and maintenance funds needed. We
have an opportunity in this area to perform an outstanding service
to the public.
In addition, there is an increasing awareness of ecolo-
gical factors which may destroy or detract from natural physical
attractiveness. This awareness is expected to continue and our
stewardship as managers of recreation areas must meet the de-
mand of this decade.
31
Outdoor recreation in Montana is big business and contri-
butes to the economic growth of the state. The Fish and Game
Department takes cognizance of its responsibilities and through
long-range comprehensive planning, will maintain an environmental
quality as well as a quality in recreational activities.
32
ACQUISITION OF LANDS FOR OUTDOOR RECREATION
In the biennium from July 1, 1970 to June 30, 1972, the
Department acquired recreation lands at ten (10) separate areas.
Acquisition methods include purchase, lease, donations and trans-
fers from other governmental agencies at nominal or no cost.
One of the major acquisitions during the period, not in-
cluded in the following listing, was the Blacktail Game Range.
The primary purpose of the acquistion is for game management
but the recreational potential of Blacktail Creek within the
management area is important.
Two other acquisitions of significance were made during
the biennium. The Bratten tract containing 147 acres in Sweet
Grass County is located on the Yellowstone River. This site
will provide excellent fishing access on the river as well as
hunting for waterfowl and upland game birds. Planning for the
development of the site is now underway. The Fairweather tract
is another fishing access site which is located in Gallatin
County north of the Missouri River Headwaters State Monioment.
This area contains a total of 677.0 acres and will provide
access to three miles of the Missouri River.

OUTDOOR RECREATION SITES ACQUIRED
BY THE MONTANA FISH AND GAME COMMISSION
July 1, 1970 to June 30, 1972
FAS = Fishing Access Site
SRA = State Recreation Area
Comments
Belt Creek - FAS — Cascade County, 1070 acres
This property encompasses more than six miles of Belt
Creek between Riceville and Logging Creek. Included is an
especially steep and scenic limestone canyon. Development
plans include a trail for hiking only with all motor vehicles
excluded. The foot trail will be constructed on an old abandoned
railroad grade which includes trestles and tunnels. The scenic
grandeur of the canyon will be enjoyed by hikers and photographers
as well as fishermen.
Sophie Lake - FAS -- Lincoln County, 12.20 acres
The Lincoln County Commissioners donated this acreage as
an addition to the existing campground at Sophie Lake. Plans
are underway for the development of this site and it should be
in operation by the summer of 1973.
Missouri River - Fairweather - FAS -- Gallatin County, 677.0 acres
This property includes the old townsite of Clarkson, located
between Trident and Lombard on the Missouri River. The site
will provide three miles of fishing access to the Missouri River.
In addition there will be good opportunity for production and
hunting of waterfowl and upland game birds.
34
Yellowstone River - Bratten - FAS — Sweetgrass County, 147.0 acres
The Bratten site is located on the Yellowstone River ap-
proximately three miles upstream from Reedpoint. The tract will
provide about one miles of fishing access on the river. Develop-
ment plans include the production and hunting of waterfowl and
upland game birds. The area has an especially attractive setting
on the river.
Flathead River - Ray Kuhns - FAS -- Flathead County, 82.59 acres
This property, located near Essex on the Middle Fork of
the Flathead River, includes over one mile of river frontage.
The property was donated for public use by a fine retired gentle-
man, Ray Kuhns. This site has a high monetary value as well as
outstanding esthetics and recreational values.
Clark Fork River - Turah - FAS -- Missoula County, 6.5 acres
This site is located near Clinton on the Clark Fork River
and has easy access from Interstate Highway 90. It receives
heavy use by campers as well as providing fishing access to the
river.
Tobacco River - FAS — Lincoln County, 50 acres
An abandoned railroad grade which furnishes access to several
miles of the Tobacco River was placed under the administration
of the Fish and Game Commission by the Corps of Engineers.
Bannack State Monument - Beaverhead County -- two lots
Two houses and lots were purchased and added to the state-
owned property in Bannack State Monument. These acquisitions
have eliminated two more inholdings within the town site. The
35
Fish and Game Commission is attempting to acquire all of the
property to assure proper preservation and planning for the
site as Montana's first territorial capital. Additional ac-
quisitions will need to be made to maintain the integrity of
the site and for proper preservation.
Cooney Reservoir - SRA - Carbon County, 14.10 acres
Two ownerships were purchased to provide better vehicle
access to the reservoir and to prevent incompatible land use
by private owners.
Giant Springs State Park - Cascade County, 8.28 acres
The Cascade County Commissioners donated this land to in-
clude as a portion of Giant Springs State Park. Additional
land is to be purchased from private owners as well as trans-
fer of a lease from the City of Great Falls. Extensive develop-
ment and improvement for the site is planned.
