FLESHMAN CREEK
Fleshman Creek runs through the town of Livingston, MT.
In 2004, JBTU received an Embrace a Stream grant from TU and worked with our state board - MTU, Fish and Wildlife (FWP) and the city of Livingston to restore a section of the creek in the Mayor's Landing area.
In 2008, with support from MTU and FWP we re-negotiated a
flow agreement with the city to ensure adequate continuous and flushing flows to conserve a habitat for spawning trout.
We participated in the selection of a contractor to study needed improvements on the creek for Park County. The results of that study will be used for larger grant applications to improve the county infrastructure that impacts the flow of Fleshman creek.
JBTU will continue our work with both the city and county to protect and restore this valuable asset to both the fish and the community.
