Buffalo Station: West Dry Creek Road, 0.75 miles south of the intersection of Buffalo Canyon Road and West Dry Creek Road, Buffalo, MT Description: Buffalo Station is an injection into the Glacier 12-inch line out of Plains Pipeline tankage, which are two 105,000 bbl tanks. Driving Directions: Take Highway 191(3.35 miles north of Gameil) to gravel road. Take left and head west and then north 1.5 miles and site will be on right side. Pipeline Description The geography of the land along the pipeline can be described as a high mountain plain containing mountainous regions that has significant elevation changes and consists of numerous small drainage areas, creeks, and rivers. While some use of the land is for agriculture purposes, most of the pipeline runs through sparsely populated and undeveloped land. A spill originating from this pipeline is likely to be discovered quickly and response conducted immediately upon discovery. However, this Plan is designed for a worst case scenario, which is a catastrophic tank or pipeline failure under extreme weather conditions during flood conditions. This Plan contains response procedures and information for the geographic area from: 1.

  • GEOLOGY and COAL RESOURCES of NORTHERN TETON COUNTY, MONTANA. by EUGENE STEBINGER. the Paper Here Presented Describes the Coal R
    GEOLOGY AND COAL RESOURCES OF NORTHERN TETON COUNTY, MONTANA. By EUGENE STEBINGER. INTRODUCTION. The paper here presented describes the coal resources of a large area in Teton County,1 northwestern Montana, including the Black- feet Indian Eeservation and a considerable area of the country lying to the east. The scope of the paper is limited to a consideration only of those features having a bearing on the value and quantity of the coal present. The geology of the region is briefly described, the aim being to give a general understanding of the geologic setting in which the coals occur. Nearly all the rocks in northern Teton County belong to formations that are of the same age as others which, elsewhere in Montana, con­ tain almost all the coal found in the State. This fact led to several generous estimates as to the extent of the coal-bearing areas likely to be found in this region. Weed 2 and Rowe 3 have published maps on which the valuable bituminous coal area of the Great Falls field is shown as extending northward entirely across Teton County to the Canadian boundary. Similarly, the presence of an extensive coal field, long actively developed at Lethridge, Alberta, 50 miles north of the boundary, gave rise to forecasts that a southward extension of that field, following the strike of the geologic formations, would be found on the line of the Great Northern Railway in northern Teton County. The result of the present work shows that although the coal-bearing formation of the Great Falls field, the Kootenai forma­ tion, is present in the area here described, the only coal in it is a bed 6 or 8 inches thick in Marias Pass, also that although the horizon of the coal mined at Lethbridge is traceable entirely across this area, it shows only thin coal beds, nowhere over 18 inches thick.

  • Lesson 4: Sediment Deposition and River Structures
    LESSON 4: SEDIMENT DEPOSITION AND RIVER STRUCTURES ESSENTIAL QUESTION: What combination of factors both natural and manmade is necessary for healthy river restoration and how does this enhance the sustainability of natural and human communities? GUIDING QUESTION: As rivers age and slow they deposit sediment and form sediment structures, how are sediments and sediment structures important to the river ecosystem? OVERVIEW: The focus of this lesson is the deposition and erosional effects of slow-moving water in low gradient areas. These “mature rivers” with decreasing gradient result in the settling and deposition of sediments and the formation sediment structures. The river’s fast-flowing zone, the thalweg, causes erosion of the river banks forming cliffs called cut-banks. On slower inside turns, sediment is deposited as point-bars. Where the gradient is particularly level, the river will branch into many separate channels that weave in and out, leaving gravel bar islands. Where two meanders meet, the river will straighten, leaving oxbow lakes in the former meander bends. TIME: One class period MATERIALS: . Lesson 4- Sediment Deposition and River Structures.pptx .

  • The Spatial Distribution of Bed Sediment on Fluvial System: a Mini Review of the Aceh Meandering River
    Aceh Int. J. Sci. Technol., 5(2): 82-87 August 2016 doi: 10.13170/aijst.5.2.4932 Aceh International Journal of Science and Technology ISSN: 2088-9860 Journal homepage: http://jurnal.unsyiah.ac.id/aijst The Spatial Distribution of Bed Sediment on Fluvial System: A Mini Review of the Aceh Meandering River Muhammad Irham Faculty of Marine and Fisheries Science, University of Syiah Kuala, Banda Aceh 23111, Indonesia. Corresponding author, email: [email protected] Received : 2 August 2016 Accepted : 28 August 2016 Online : 31 August2016 Abstract - Dynamic interactions of hydrological and geomorphological processes in the fluvial system result in accumulated deposit on the bed because the capacity to carry sediment has been exceeded. The bed load of the Aceh fluvial system is primarily generated by mechanical weathering resulting in boulders, pebbles, and sand, which roll or bounce along the river bed forming temporary deposits as bars on the insides of meander bends, as a result of a loss of transport energy in the system. This dynamic controls the style and range of deposits in the Aceh River. This study focuses on the spatial distribution of bed-load transport of the Aceh River. Understanding the spatial distribution of deposits facilitates the reconstruction of the changes in controlling factors during accumulation of deposits. One of the methods can be done by sieve analysis of sediment, where the method illuminates the distribution of sediment changes associate with channel morphology under different flow regimes. Hence, the purpose of this mini review is to investigate how the sediment along the river meander spatially dispersed.

  • Glacier County Pre-Disaster Mitigation Plan February 2017
    Glacier County Pre-Disaster Mitigation Plan February 2017 Encompassing the Jurisdictions of: Glacier County City of Cut Bank Prepared By: Fulton Wold, CBCP Tony Gertz, AEM Executive Officer Mitigation Planner (615) 469-5558 (615) 469-5558 [email protected] [email protected] Glacier County Pre-Disaster Mitigation Plan Page 2 Executive Summary The Glacier County Pre-Disaster Mitigation Plan is being developed to update and revise hazard mitigation activities for Glacier County. The Glacier County Mitigation Planning Committee will evaluate mitigation measures to be undertaken, and outline a strategy for implementation of mitigation projects. This plan covers two municipalities in Glacier County, including the governments of: Glacier County and the City of Cut Bank. Formal adoption and implementation of a pre-disaster mitigation plan may present many benefits to Glacier County and Cut Bank. By identifying problems and possible solutions in advance of a disaster, Glacier County and Cut Bank will be in a better position to obtain pre and post-disaster funding. This document aims to produce the following strategic outcomes: 1) Reduce loss of life and decrease property losses to Glacier County and its jurisdictions due to natural disasters; and 2) Provide the framework and coordination to encourage government, and both public and private organizations at all levels, to undertake mitigation in order to minimize potential disasters and to employ mitigation strategies in the recovery following disasters. Specifically, these strategic

MAKE THE CALL: 1-800-TIP-MONT FISH IDENTIFICATION KEY If you don’t know, let it go! CUTTHROAT TROUT are frequently mistaken for Rainbow Trout (see pictures below): 1. Turn the fish over and look under the jaw. Does it have a red or orange stripe? If yes—the fish is a Cutthroat Trout. Carefully release all Cutthroat Trout that cannot be legally harvested (see page 10, releasing fish). BULL TROUT are frequently mistaken for Brook Trout, Lake Trout or Brown Trout (see below): 1. Look for white edges on the front of the lower fins. If yes—it may be a Bull Trout. 2. Check the shape of the tail. Bull Trout have only a slightly forked tail compared to the lake trout’s deeply forked tail. 3. Is the dorsal (top) fin a clear olive color with no black spots or dark wavy lines? If yes—the fish is a Bull Trout. Carefully release Bull Trout (see page 10, releasing fish). MONTANA LAW REQUIRES: n All Bull Trout must be released immediately in Montana unless authorized. See Western District regulations. n Cutthroat Trout must be released immediately in many Montana waters. Check the district standard regulations and exceptions to know where you can harvest Cutthroat Trout.
