Fortification Creek
Wyoming Public Land Intitive

Fortification Creek Advisory Committee Update

In November, a proposed management designation with an 11—0 consensus of the committee members present was reached.  Two public meetings were held, one December 4th in Buffalo and one in Gillette on December 6th.  The committee explained the process taken to achieve their recommendation.  Following a 45 day comment period, the committee will meet February 7, 2018 in Gillette to review the public comments and determine if any adjustments are to be made. The committee agreed upon the following desired characteristics. A Hard Release from wilderness designation to a new permanent designation entitled "Fortification Creek Management Area" listing the following recommendations of:
     · No new surface disturbance unless needed for fire suppression
     · No new permanent roads
     · Maintain existing characteristics
     · Existing uses continued such as grazing, hunting and recreation
     · No motorize vehicles allowed other than reasonable fire suppression, weed and pest control, wildlife/stock water or emergency needs
