Yesterday's Phosphorus, Today's Water Quality Webinar
2024-08-22 12:00 - 13:00 | Microsoft Teams
Conservation Outcomes Webinar: Yesterday’s Phosphorus, Today’s Water Quality: Conservation Insights from the USDA Legacy Phosphorus Assessment Webinar
August 22, 2024
12:00pm-1:00pm
Phosphorus, a critical fertilizer nutrient required for crop production, can trigger unwanted changes to aquatic systems when it ends up in our water bodies. For producers and conservationists, testing the soil and managing today’s additions of phosphorus in fertilizer and manure is just the first important step. Historical sources of phosphorus accumulate in soils, wetlands, and streams. As a result, today’s water quality may reflect a phosphorus legacy that doesn’t readily respond only to SMART Nutrient Management. Mitigating legacy phosphorus requires targeted conservation in fields, at the edges of fields, and in watersheds. This may require new approaches to conservation.
Dr. Peter Kleinman will share recent insights from USDA’s Legacy Phosphorus Assessment Project during our free, one-hour Conservation Outcomes Webinar. Dr. Kleinman is a Research Leader with USDA’s Agricultural Research Service (ARS) in Fort Collins, Colorado. He coordinates this collaborative effort between USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service and ARS to advance the science, innovation, and forecasting of legacy phosphorus mitigation strategies and ultimately support water quality improvements. Findings will be presented from Conservation Effects Assessment Project watersheds within the Chesapeake Bay, Lake Champlain, Lake Erie, Mississippi River, and Snake River. Producers, conservationists, and researchers may use the conservation insights shared during this webinar to strengthen legacy phosphorus mitigation efforts and improve water quality nationwide.

Registration is not required. Access the webinar via Microsoft Teams shortly before 2:00 p.m. eastern on August 22 by clicking “Join Webinar,” below. Users on smartphones may need to download Microsoft Teams in advance.

FWP River Recreation Public Workshop 1
2024-09-03 18:30 - 19:30 | Zoom
FWP River Recreation Public Workshop 1
September 3, 2024
06:30pm-07:30pm
To gather public input, Montana FWP will host three virtual public workshops. These workshops will provide an opportunity for the public to ask questions and share their insights on trends and challenges with river recreation throughout the state.
The input gathered will be used by the River Recreation Advisory Council (RRAC). One of the key tasks of the council will be to hold discussions on managing river recreation opportunities, to include considerations for protecting natural resources and ensuring high-quality experiences for all river users across Montana. Additionally, FWP has received feedback about congestion on waterways and at access sites. While most agree on the importance of protecting aquatic and terrestrial resources, opinions vary on the best methods for managing river recreation.
As stewards of these public resources, FWP is committed to gathering broad public input to ensure sound management of these resources and opportunities. The recommendations by the council will help create a fair and predictable system for managing river recreation.
