Gaius Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 The folks living in Montana will know best how this impacts their activities, if at all.Congressional Budget Office ReportS. 364, Rocky Mountain Front Heritage Act of 2013As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources on November 21, 2013S. 364 would establish a conservation management area consisting of 208,000 acres of federal land in Montana. The bill also would add 67,000 acres to existing wilderness areas in the state. Finally, the legislation would require the Secretary of Agriculture to develop a strategy to mitigate the effects of noxious weeds in the Lewis and Clark National Forest.CBO Report - http://www.cbo.gov/publication/45100?utm_source=feedblitz&utm_medium=FeedBlitzEmail&utm_content=812526&utm_campaign=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaius Posted February 12, 2014 Author Share Posted February 12, 2014 The United States Secretary of Agriculture is the head of the U.S. Department of Agriculture and serves as member of the US President Cabinet. So yes this is a federal action not the state of Montana. During the bill development they may have coordinate with some of the local state folks.
