Montana: Sage-grouse consultation can be part of the SWC application package

Montana DEQ lists the construction NOI package as including maps, a SWPPP, the fee and a Sage Grouse Program consultation letter where applicable. The consultation item is conditional, not a blanket restriction on all Montana sites.

Sitework Estimate provides remote, plan-based quantity takeoff support. This page does not establish a local office, completed local project, engineering approval or permit coverage.

What this changes in the bid review

Estimating interpretation: Where consultation applies, the accepted disturbance and access plan should remain with the bid inputs. Do not invent a statewide seasonal restriction or assume a missing consultation document has no effect on the planned work.

Check the project documents

Mark each item after reviewing its supporting document.Ask whether the project requires Sage Grouse Program consultation.Obtain the applicable consultation result and approved disturbance map.Reconcile any access or timing conditions with the proposed construction sequence.

Clarification to request: Does applicable consultation impose project-specific access, disturbance or sequencing conditions?
