CARCASS REMOVAL - MVRG's carcass removal program is operated on the east side of Madison County covering over 150 square miles and currently servicing 40+ landowners (ranchers and small acreage livestock owners). It is operated by the MVRG Project Director with MVRG's dump trailer and her pickup. The carcasses once removed are brought to the carcass compost site. Removing carcasses from ranches and small acreages reduces predator and scavenger conflicts with ranchers and the general public. 23800 WEED BIO CONTROL- The Madison County Biocontrol project continues to be one of the most successful in the state. In 2023, the crew collected and released over 85,000 specialized insects, surveyed and mapped dozens of properties and spoke with many landowners. The project also is an important partner in the statewide study of a new biocontrol for Canada thistle. In 2023, we revisited and monitored 17 sites, re-inoculated 13, and spent 3 days in the field harvesting infected plant materials in the fall. This work was done in Beaverhead, Gallatin, and Madison counties. 16301 WEED OUTREACH AND EDUCATION- In 2023 the Committee worked to bring noxious weed awareness to the community by participating in the Jack Creek Youth Camp, providing monthly articles to the Madisonian newspaper via Natural Resource News and producing and distributing our scenic and educational calendar. We also offered an adult education workshop on Noxious Weeds and participated in a private applicator training. 9315 CO-OPERATIVE WEED CONTROL PROJECTS- We partnered with the Madison County Weed Board on a special project in Meadow Creek watershed near McAllister. The Weed Committee helped facilitate this project by performing extensive outreach to landowners, communicating with commercial applicators, surveying and mapping. Our crew also participated in the annual Bear Trap Spray Day, a large cooperative effort that brings together public land managers and the public. 16301 NOXIOUS WEED COORDINATION - The MVRG Weed Committee works closely and coordinates with professionals across the state (and often throughout the West). The Project Coordinator is the SW MT Biocontrol Representative, participates in statewide biological control steering committee meetings and the SW Area of the MT Weed Control Association's Council. We also have agreements with both the Bureau of Land Management and the MT Department of Transportation. The Committee also spends much time working with other public and private land managers to address noxious weed issues in the region. 4657 CARCASS COMPOST SITE - The site is managed by the Bar MZ Ranch and the MVRG Project Director. There are substantial costs associated with placing carcasses in the bunkers, monitoring the carcass decomposition process and keeping the electric fenced enclosure maintained, turning the piles, and materials for mixing to make the compost. DEQ training session for proper management are currently on-line and help with maintain the site accreditation. 71366 EDUCATION AND OUTREACH - MVRG partners in the Winter RoundTable Series which brings presenters together with local ranchers and others of the public to share ideas relevant to current challenges and new concepts for rancher profitability and land use health. The pandemic last year encouraged us to try live virtual presentations which we then posted as You Tube videos. Our 4 presentations last year have had over 750 views on-line We were a partner in the Wildlife Series Summer Presentations... The new website was completed in 2021 for sharing programs and activities. MVRG is active in safety trainings for people working livestock, interacting with carnivores, and operating farm machinery... Trail camera follow up: Cameras were distributed in 2020 to monitor and confirm carnivore activity on summer grazing pastures.
