12.2.301    POLICIES AND OBJECTIVES

(1) Participation of the public is to be provided for, encouraged, and assisted to the fullest extent practicable, consistent with other requirements of state law and the rights and requirements of personal privacy. The major objectives of such participation include greater responsiveness of governmental actions to public concerns and priorities, and improved public understanding of official programs and actions. Although the primary responsibility for wildlife management, outdoor recreation, and other functions of the Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Parks is vested in the department, active public involvement in and scrutiny of the decision making process is desirable to accomplish these objectives. The intent of these regulations is to foster a spirit of openness and a sense of mutual trust and understanding between the public and the department in efforts to maintain and enhance Montana wildlife resources and outdoor recreation opportunities.
