The state of Montana will require the inclusion of the text of the state's stream access law. When a property is purchased the buyer must sign-off that they are aware of the existing law and have read it's text.
Why is this important?
Montana's stream access laws are continually being challenged. Most of these challenges are the result of people having no previous knowledge of the existing laws or knowledge that is incomplete or incorrect. The people of Montana like their stream access laws and would like to see them remain unchanged. If you're looking to buy a piece of Montana you should be fully aware of all the laws that may have an impact on your property and learn to live by those laws rather than strive to change them.
