No. 26155 Public Notice - Montana State Parks (stateparks.mt.gov) is seeking public comment on a draft Environmental Assessment (EA) for a proposed Land Exchange at Lake Mary Ronan State Park located near Dayton, MT. Comments will be accepted through Thursday, May 23, 2019 at 5pm. The proposed project would exchange 0.51 acres of wooded uplands in Lake Mary Ronan State Park (LMR SP) for 0.38 acres of privately-owned lakefront which borders the park. The exchange would extend the state park shoreline by 286 feet. In 2018, Montana State Parks was approached with a land exchange proposal from the Sandau family who owns property bordering LMR SP. The Sandaus need additional width in their shoreline property to develop a drain field for a single residential dwelling that is compliant with state and county requirements. To accomplish this, they proposed trading private property which borders the existing LMR SP boating and day-use area for state park land immediately adjacent to their intended building site. The 0.51 acres of parkland which would be exchanged has no developed amenities and sees little use by park visitors. The current park day-use area is quite small, and the additional shoreline footage would provide the opportunity to develop more shore fishing, while reducing congestion at the park's current boat launch area. To view a full copy of the environmental assessment visit stateparks.mt.gov and click "Public Comments & Notices". A public comment period will be open for 30 days and comments will be accepted through Thursday, May23, 2019 at 5pm. To comment visit stateparks.mt.gov and click "Public Comments & Notices". The public may also send written comments to: Lake Mary Ronan Land Exchange, Attn: Dave Landstrom, 490 North Meridian Road, Kalispell, MT 59901. For questions about the draft EA or the public comment process, contact Dave Landstrom, Regional Park Manager, at (406) 751-4574 or dlandstrom@mt.gov -FWP- April 22, 23, 2019 MNAXLP __________________________
