17-acre oxbow restoration in the Powder River.
Projects in the Lower
Missouri River drainage include oxbow wetland restoration in the Sheridan, Ranchester,
Ucross, Clearmont, and Buffalo areas.
Riparian livestock and
wetland fencing projects improve wildlife habitat and water quality while soil erosion is
decreased by managing, maintaining, and improving vegetative cover on the
stream banks.
Grazing management plans
complete the Partners package. For example, one Partners project involves two landowners
along the Powder River who have incorporated 70,000+ continuous acres into their grazing
management plan, protecting over 13 miles of Powder River riparian habitat. |
