Montana Title 76. Land Resources and Use § 76-10-101. Purpose

Current as of January 01, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(1) The purpose of this part is to:

(a) encourage the growth of a statewide sustainable wildcrafting industry that encourages stewardship of the wild plant natural resources of the state by requiring a person who is wildcrafting for commercial purposes to obtain a permit or permission in a written form before the person can wildcraft and by providing enforcement procedures;

(b) require buyers to be accountable for wildcrafted plant material that they purchase by requiring recordkeeping; and

(c) establishing enforcement procedures.

(2) The state recognizes its limited jurisdiction within the Indian reservations in Montana and acknowledges and respects the government-to-government relationship between Montana and the tribes within its borders. It is the legislature's intent that this part be implemented within current jurisdictional limitations. The tribes are invited to enter into state-tribal cooperative agreements with Montana to provide for broader implementation.
