    Chapter 25 State: Montana Recovery Unit Name: Saint Mary - Belly River Region 1 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Portland, Oregon DISCLAIMER Recovery plans delineate reasonable actions that are believed necessary to recover and/or protect the species. Recovery plans are prepared by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and in this case with the assistance of recovery unit teams, State agencies, Tribal agencies, and others. Objectives will be attained and any necessary funds made available subject to budgetary and other constraints affecting the parties involved, as well as the need to address other priorities. Recovery plans do not necessarily represent the views nor the official positions or approval of any individuals or agencies involved in the plan formulation, other than the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Recovery plans represent the official position of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service only after they have been signed by the Director or Regional Director as approved. Approved recovery plans are subject to modification as dictated by new findings, changes in species status, and the completion of recovery tasks.

How Did Consul Get Its Name? Consul is on a CPR line in the extreme southwest corner of the province. The school was built before the railway come in and it was called Kelvinhurst for a place in Scotland. The post office took the same name. However, when the railroad arrived it named the townsite Consul in spite of the wishes of the citi- zens. (Source: What’s in a Name? edited by E.T. Russell) Who was the first mayor of Consul? David A. Johnson. He was married to Rhetta, and they had four children, Norm, Grace, Jim and Doug. Born in 1915, Doug was the first baby born in Swift Current Consul. David moved his store from Vidora to Consul in 1914 which was the 773 7285 first general store in the village. In 1916, he had the Ford agency, and built a and larger store in Consul (which is still our grocery store today!).
