Big Hole River Declared Impaired

Big Hole River Declared Impaired

Published 2 days, 13 hours ago
Description

Montana’s environmental agency is set to officially label the Big Hole River as impaired due to toxic algae fueled by nutrient overload, threatening fish and public safety—and could unlock critical funding for restoration. With low snowpack worsening streamflows and trout populations plummeting, conservationists push for urgent action, while ranchers fear the river may dry up. The designation, expected by 2027, could become a blueprint for tackling similar waterways across the state.
