The Natural Streambed and Land Preservation Act
Conservation districts administer this act, also known as "The 310
Law," for the state of Montana. Any private individual or corporation proposing to
undertake a project or construction activity in a perennial stream must first apply for a
permit from the local conservation district. In the permitting process, conservation
district supervisors and Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife, and Parks personnel inspect
the site of the project with the applicant to ensure it is completed in a fashion that
maintains the natural integrity of the stream system. For more information about stream
permitting in Montana, see Montana's
Guide to Stream Permitting.
