“A channel migration easement (CME) is a conservation easement that includes
land bordering a stream or river where the Landowner agrees not to riprap or
otherwise stabilize the river bank, thereby allowing the river’s natural
erosive processes to continue. The purpose of the Navratil CME is to preserve
and protect the conservation and agricultural values of the Land, particularly
the habitats provided for fish and wildlife species, and to prevent armoring of
the river bank within the easement area, in perpetuity. The project area is
located about 4 miles south of Sidney, MT, along approximately 3,500 feet of
the west bank of the Yellowstone River.”
