Applications available for FWP’s Habitat Conservation Lease Program
HELENA – Beginning Oct. 15, Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks is accepting applications for its Habitat Conservation Lease Program.
A habitat conservation lease is a voluntary, incentive-based agreement between FWP and private landowners in which the landowner commits to specific land management practices that protect priority wildlife habitat.
In turn, FWP pays landowners a one-time per-acre fee for the lease. These agreements have a term length of 30 and 40 years. The lease program is in addition to the conservation tools already available to landowners.
