The Montana Environmental
Information Center will discuss recent state legislation that
weakened water quality standards – plus mining, right-wing
movements and Montana’s energy future – at its annual meeting Sept.
23 at Flathead Lake Biological Station. For more information, or to
register by Sept. 8, contact MEIC, P.O. Box 1184, Helena, MT 59624

Desert rats
can join the Oregon Natural Desert Association, Aug. 24 to 27, for
the annual Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge Fence-Out.
Participants will help refuge staffers remove old fencing dangerous
to widlife, and after work, soak tired bones in nearby hot springs.
For more information call ONDA at
503/389-6908.
