NOTICE OF REPEAL OF A TEMPORARY EMERGENCY RULE

 

TO:  All Concerned Persons                    

 

           1.         On May 27, 2009, the Fish, Wildlife and Parks Commission (commission) adopted a temporary emergency rule closing the Belt Creek within Sluice Boxes State Park, published at page 939 of the 2009 Montana Administrative Register, Issue No. 11.  There was a log jam that created an obstruction in a narrow, steep-walled section of a canyon that caused the river to be impassable by recreationists.  This situation constituted an imminent peril to the public health, safety, and welfare of anyone recreating on the river.

 

            2.         The log jam has been removed and the temporary emergency rule closing the Belt Creek within Sluice Boxes State Park, MAR Notice No. 12-355, is no longer necessary.  As this situation no longer constitutes an imminent peril to public health, safety, and welfare, the commission is repealing the rule.  The repeal of the rule will be sent as a press release to newspapers throughout the state.  Also, signs informing the public of the closure will be removed at access points.  The repeal notice will be sent to interested parties, and published in Issue No. 13 of the 2009 Montana Administrative Register.

 

            3.         The repeal of the temporary emergency rule is effective June 23, 2009.

 

            4.         The bill sponsor contact requirements of 2-4-302, MCA, do not apply.
