This grant is offered to support essential environmental monitoring focused on the Tonge and Powder River systems in eastern Montana. The primary purpose is to rigorously assess the potential ecological impacts of coal bed methane gas development on the region’s aquatic wildlife communities. Specifically, this initiative aims to determine whether such development negatively affects the health and sustainability of the diverse species inhabiting these two major river drainages. By gathering crucial data, this grant will help understand environmental changes, inform robust conservation strategies, and protect the valuable aquatic ecosystems of eastern Montana against industrial pressures, ensuring the long-term vitality of its natural resources.
