In order to take advantage of the grace period, project sponsors must submit a list of the missing information with their Final Project Proposal by the October 4th deadline.

Project Proposal Review
The Montana Watershed Coordination Council has been asked to assist the DEQ nonpoint source program staff in reviewing and providing comment on the 319 Project Proposals. MWCC committees or work groups will review the corresponding project proposals and provide comments. The purpose for this review is to provide the applicants with recommendations for strengthening their applications. The recommended edits/comments will be provided in written form to the applicants by DEQ by August 30, 2013. Project sponsors are encouraged to attend the appropriate review meeting.
