Bighorn Flows to be Minimal Through June

The Bureau of Reclamation decision was announced yesterday. “Currently, the flows are at 1,500 cubic feet per second, the minimum acceptable level to maintain the river’s $30 million fishing industry. Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks, which manages the stream, recommends a minimum flow of 2,500 cfs to maintain side channels for trout rearing.” From the Billings Gazette.
