flag A judge blocks water diversions from Montana’s Upper Clark Fork River to protect endangered bull trout.

flag A federal judge has issued a temporary restraining order halting the West Side Ditch Company and the U.S. Department of the Interior from diverting water from Montana’s Upper Clark Fork River to protect endangered bull trout. flag The order comes after a lawsuit by conservation groups, who argue that excessive water diversion, especially during low-flow periods, threatens the fish’s survival in a river already impacted by historic mining pollution. flag The court will hold a hearing on a preliminary injunction on September 25, with the aim of ensuring sufficient water flow—below 90 cubic feet per second—to maintain critical habitat for the threatened species.
