THE ANTIDOTE TO THE ANTI-PUBLIC LANDS MOVEMENT: FINDING COMMON GROUND AND WORKING TOGETHER Association works with communities to protect Montana’s wilderness heritage, quiet beauty, and outdoor traditions, now and for future generations.

The Wild Kootenai:

Kootenai Forest Stakeholders Coalition agrees to a balanced plan for public lands, including 180,000 acres of new wilderness for northwestern Montana.

HE 2.2 MILLION-ACRE KOOTENAI NATIONAL FOREST is a special place: strikingly beautiful, biologically rich, and a little bit mysterious. This is Kootenai Country, home to clear rivers, big trees, and wild weather dropping up to 100 inches of rain every year. For me, there is a level of solitude and an element of discovery that sets this forest apart from many other places in the state. t e

b Libby, Troy, Noxon, and other communities in the Kootenai have long relied s i N

f on the mining and timber industry operating on surrounding public lands. f e

J Traditionally, the area was known as the timber basket of Montana. But, like other places around the Northwest, most of the mills have since closed, and many jobs have evaporated. This agreement is a huge step forward in securing With the land and communities in need of new solutions, the Kootenai and improving habitat for

The coalition’s unified voice in the forest planning process will help communities like Troy that are in need of new solutions.

6 WILD MONTANA WINTER 2016 7 “ I am involved with the BCSP because it’s the best way I see of A HOMEGROWN PROPOSAL advancing a lot of good work that needs to continue in the Blackfoot Watershed of Montana. It is rewarding to work with a FOR THE BLACKFOOT diverse group of interests to find common ground. I think the public wants solutions, not stalemate and continued polarization.” –Tim Love, Retired Seeley Lake District ranger Montana Wilderness Association is a proud and integral part of the Blackfoot Clearwater Stewardship Project (BCSP), a community-driven collaborative that has provided a way forward for protecting the Blackfoot and Clearwater watersheds.

Restoring forests, promoting recreation opportunities, and adding 83,000 acres to the Bob Marshall, Scapegoat, and Wilderness Areas are all part of the BCSP proposal that we urge Montana’s Congressional delegation to maneuver through Congress and into law.

The members of BCSP have a diversity of interests but find common ground in the love they share for this special part of Montana.

Here are a few of the people behind this homegrown proposal.

“Seldom does an opportunity arise when we have a chance to do something important and critical for the land, the communities, the people, the wildlife, and for future generations. The BCSP does just that. It is our good fortune and obligation to see this project to a successful completion.” –Connie & Mack Long Owners of Outfitters

“Pyramid has always been a strong supporter of collaboration and working with others to accomplish more of each other ’s interests on the ground, whether it’s wildlife or fisheries habitat, recreation, or active forest management. Our involvement in the Blackfoot Clearwater Project over the past 10 years is an example of our commitment to develop and maintain long- term relationships for all the right reasons.” –Gordy Sanders Resource manager, Pyramid Mountain Lumber

In declaring its intention to cancel the lease, DOI admitted that it hadn’t complied with the National Environmental Policy Act or the National Historic Preservation Act when it issued the lease under the Reagan administration. Mr. Longwell’s lawyers were quick to call DOI’s decision preposterous. Interestingly, they were just as quick to ask the judge to push the pause button on the department’s timeline to cancel the Solenex lease so they could attempt to negotiate with the department. While DOI was willing to negotiate a settlement with the Longwell’s lawyers, it was apparently not willing to back down from its decision to cancel the Solenex lease. On January 15, 2016 the parties announced that they had not reached a settlement. While MWA and our partners were hopeful a settlement would lead to a more expeditious removal of the Solenex lease, we now fully expect the government to act to cancel the lease. We also fully expect DOI to come to the same legal conclusion for the 17 other leases, which e

span over 30,000 acres: that they were illegally leased and should be cancelled. k m h
