(1) The lands owned
				or controlled by the commission lying within the following described boundaries
				shall be closed to trespass by snowmobiles, effective December 22, 1969.
(a) Porcupine Creek area: Starting at the
				confluence of Elkhorn Creek and the West Gallatin River, thence southeasterly
				up the ridge between Elkhorn Creek and the West Gallatin River to the
				Elkhorn-Buffalohorn Creeks divide, thence northeasterly along said divide to
				the Gallatin-Yellowstone Rivers divide, thence northerly along said divide to
				Eaglehead Mountain and the Portal-Porcupine Creeks divide, thence northwesterly
				along said divide to the Levinski-Porcupine Creeks divide, thence northwesterly
				along said divide to the West Gallatin River, thence southerly along said river
				to the confluence of Elkhorn Creek, the point of beginning.
(b) Exceptions to the above closure will be:
(i) Use of snowmobiles to cross this area
				will be permitted along a route designated and marked by the U.S. Forest
				Service with appropriate signs.
(A) The
				Porcupine route will follow Forest Service Trail #66, beginning at the
				Portal-Porcupine Creeks divide and proceeding southerly into the Porcupine
				Creek drainage. At approximately 3/4 mile north of the Porcupine bottom the
				route will bear to the east about one mile, crossing Porcupine Creek and then
				bearing southwest to its junction with Forest Service Trail #199, approximately
				one mile south of the Porcupine Creek bottom. The route will then proceed
				southerly along Forest Service Trail #199 to the south boundary of the closure,
				which is the divide between Elkhorn and Buffalohorn Creeks.
(ii) Forest Service Trail #34,
				beginning at the Porcupine guard cabin and proceeding southeasterly up
				Porcupine Creek to its junction with Forest Service Trail #199, and Trail #199
				from this junction southeasterly approximately one mile to its junction with
				the Big Sky Snowmobile Trail, will be open to snowmobile use each year on a
				flexible schedule depending on the distribution and concentration of elk along
				the Porcupine Creek bottom. The opening date will be set and advertised each
				year by the Forest Service officer in charge of the area in coordination with
				the department.
(iii) The use of
				snowmobiles will be permitted on the area during any regular or special hunting
				season if so designated and directed by the commission.
Administrative Rules of Montana › Department 12 - FISH, WILDLIFE, AND PARKS › Chapter 12.6 - ENFORCEMENT DIVISION › Subchapter 12.6.6 - Snowmobile Regulations › Rule 12.6.602 - SOUND PRESSURE LEVEL REGULATION AND CERTIFICATION

Current through Register Vol. 13, July 5, 2024
(1) Snowmobile sound pressure levels shall be
				in accordance with
				23-2-634, MCA.
(2) Sound pressure levels in decibels shall
				be measured on "A" scale of a sound level meter having characteristics defined
				by current American National Standards Association Sl, 4-1966 "general purpose
				sound meter." Measurements shall be made in accordance with applicable
				practices outlined in "Exterior Sound Levels for Snowmobiles -SAE J192" or the
				procedure set forth in exhibit "A" attached hereto and hereby made a part
				hereof.
(3) Manufacturer's
				certification required by
				23-2-634, MCA, shall be evidenced
				by a label permanently affixed to the exterior portion of the snowmobile
				chassis. The label shall be in the following form: "This vehicle was
				manufactured by (name of company), (address of company), and conforms to all
				applicable federal and state requirements in effect on the date of its
				manufacture VIN
#
, date manufactured .
(4) Exhibit "A" is entitled "Procedures for
				the Field Measurement of Snowmobile Noise Pursuant to
				23-2-634, MCA".
(a) A site suitable for making noise
				measurements for purposes of enforcing these regulations shall consist of a
				flat open space free of large reflecting surfaces such as signboards,
				buildings, or hillsides located within 50 feet of either the vehicle or the
				microphone.
(b) The surface of the
				ground within the measurement area shall be covered with snow.
(c) The ambient sound level (including wind
				effects) due to sources other than the vehicle being measured shall be at least
				ten dbA lower than the level of the tested vehicle.
(d) The sound level meter shall be set for
				"fast" response and for the "A" scale network. If the meter is equipped with
				"hold" it may be used. ("Impulse" may not be used.)
(e) The meter shall be observed while the
				vehicle is accelerating. The applicable reading shall be the highest sound
				level obtained for the run, ignoring unrelated peaks due to extraneous ambient
				noises.
(f) The meter shall be
				calibrated daily, using either internal or external calibration techniques as
				specified by instrument instructions.
(g) Instrument manufacturer's specifications
				for orientation of the microphone relative to the source of sound and the
				location of the observer relative to the meter should be adhered to.
(h) It is recommended that measurements be
				made only when wind velocity is below 12 mph.
(i) An additional five dbA allowance over the
				sound level limit is recommended to provide for variations in measurement site,
				vehicle operation temperature, humidity, and wind velocity.
(j) Technically trained personnel should be
				consulted in the selection of equipment and all measurements shall be conducted
				only by qualified persons trained in the current techniques of sound
