Maybe you heard. Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks

(FWP) was planning a bison discussion meeting for April 15
and 16. The meeting was cancelled late Saturday, April 12.
Personally, I found out less than 24 hours before I was set to
leave for the gathering.
So what does this cancellation mean in the ongoing
discussion of whether or not the right to self determination
applies to Eastern Montanans? I just cant tell.

Make no mistake. Simply having the discussion is a huge
improvement. Under the past administration, the approach
was: There is no self determination in Eastern Montana. The
executive branch will inform them what has been decided for
them. The statements that made the biggest impressions at
FWPs first Eastern Montana bison meeting were First the
Indians and now you guys and What you think doesnt
matter. You are going to be gone.

There has been one hopeful sign. Matthew Brown, after
interviewing FWP Director Jeff Hagener for the Associated
Press wrote on April 23, it was no longer considered viable
to establish a herd of free-roaming bison without any fencing
or other limitations on where they can go and that a small
herd of 50 to 100 bison is a potential first step as opposed to
one earlier proposal to create a new herd of roughly 1,000
animals.

There has been one grim sign. FWPs Ron Aasheim told
the Jordan Tribune editor that the concern was making sure
the appropriate people attended and that they wanted equal
pro and con representation. Unfortunately, there is no pro
and con to this issue. The first position is, We do not want
people from over 200 miles away forcing something on our
county that 80% of the residents oppose. The second is, We
want to force decisions on counties 200 miles from where we
live over the objections of 80% of the residents.
On September 26, 2013, FWP Director, Jeff Hagener
asked (from the video of the first bison panel discussion
meeting), The biggest question that to me comes forward,
is there any acceptance at all to have bison on the ground?
What I would consider to be a wild bison thats managed as
wildlife? So. Had that question been addressed? Was there
any evidence at that time that Eastern Montana counties
accept having wild bison released in them?

Valley Countys Commissioners and the Valley County
Resource Use Committee commissioned a survey in late
2010. 79% of those surveyed did not want wild, free-roaming
bison released in Valley County. Only 6% were in favor.
Respondents came from churches, schools, restaurants, auto
dealerships, hospitals, fabric stores, banks, and hotels, not to
mention Fort Peck Reservation.

In Phillips County, a petition opposing wild bison being

Will FWP heed the voices?

continued from page 5

released in Phillips County has been running since June 10,

2010 and has garnered 2,089 signatures. Phillips County has
only 2,394 registered active voters.

The Montana Conservation Districts are part of a network
of 3,000 conservation districts nationwide. They were created
by the Montana legislature in 1939. The elected supervisors of
the Conservation Districts are charged by Montana law with a
mission to ensure the conservation of soil and soil resources
of this state furthering the conservation of water
preserve natural resources preserve wildlife, protect the
tax base, protect public lands, and protect and promote the
health safety, and general welfare of the people of this state.
Phillips Conservation District (March 2011), Valley County
Conservation District (Sept. 25, 2013), Petroleum County
Conservation District (Nov. 28, 2011), and Garfield County
Conservation District (Feb. 24, 2011) have all provided
FWP with resolutions and position papers opposing the
introduction of wild bison into their counties on conservation
grounds.
In 2012, the voters of McCone County approved an
ordinance that any state-owned bison in their county would
have to be managed under a plan approved by their local
Conservation District.

The FWP had held six bison meetings that I am aware
of in Eastern Montana by September, 2013. At each meeting,
between 30 and 100 members of the public attended, and
between 0 and 3 of those people were in favor of bison releases
in this area. At the panel discussion, on September 27, after
the public comment period, the facilitator, Virginia Tribe of
Missoula stated, You heard a lot of things, including the fact
that local people certainly dont support the business of bison
coming in in a wildlife sense. FWP Commission Richard
Stuker said, Everything that I heard yesterday [at the public
comment period], other than a couple of comments, are
things that weve heard before... Now we know, and I think
we all knew before, that people from Valley County, Phillips
County, and the outlying areas do not want any bison there.

At the panel discussion on September 26, Representative
Mike Lang talked about a bill he had introduced that would
require the FWP to coordinate bison planning with local
County Commissioners, That thing passed the House and
the Senate, 65%. It went to the Governors office. I met with
those people and with Mr. Baker.... And when it came down
to it, I said, OK, so youre telling me that, are you scared that
no County Commissioner group, 56 counties in this state, will
give you approval to run bison in the state? And he said, Yes,
thats why we are against your bill. The discussion was pretty
well over at that point. To me that speaks volumes.

So what pivot does this represent? Will the FWP heed
the voices demanding that the citizens of Eastern Montana be
deprived of their constitutional rights? Or will they bravely

be here dedicated to... government of the people, by the

people, for the people? Will they stand up and say, Thank
you for relieving us of the statutory duty to grant the people
of Eastern Montana the inalienable right to self governance,
but we feel we still have a moral duty to do so. We are not
ashamed of our record of going to local elected representatives
and developing a bison plan that involves a bison pasture and
local control, and we intend to continue in that vein. In any
county, we have the opportunity to work together with the
County Commissioners, who have been elected by county
residents and have taken an oath to uphold the best interests
of the countys people, and with the County Conservation
Districts, who are elected officials that have taken an oath to
defend the wildlife and natural resources of the county. We
can only hope.
The bison themselves are irrelevant to this discussion.
It wouldnt matter if the National Wildlife Federation and
Wildlife Conservation Society (not to mention a state
senator) wanted to come over 200 miles to hand out free ice
cream sandwiches in Valley County. If 80% of the people in
the county did not want them to do so, that should be the end
of the discussion. They should not be in talks with the state
to determine under what circumstances they can circumvent
the right to self determination in Valley County. They should
start looking for a different county that is willing to be done
unto.
