Mission and programs · 2025

Mission

TO HELP KEEP RANCHES IN THE MADISON VALLEY VIABLE AND PROMOTE GOOD STEWARDSHIP, PROMOTE OPEN SPACE, AND HEALTHY WAY OF LIFE THAT HAS WESTERN VALUES AND CLEAN WATER AND WILDLIFE HABITATE AND HEALTHY RANCHLANDS.

Activities or mission (Part I)

WEED CONTROL AND EDUCATION TOURS ON LOCAL RANCHES TO USE WILDLIFE AS ASSETS; HELPING RANCHERS DEAL WITH WILDLIFE ISSUES; AND NEW BRUCELLOCISS SURVEILLANCE AREA REGULATIONS; WORKING TO SETUP COMPOST SITE AND CARCASS.

  • EDUCATION AND OUTREACH - MVRG partners in the Winter RoundTable Series which brings presenters together with local ranchers and others of the public to share ideas relevant to current challenges and new concepts for rancher profitability and land use health. We were a partner in the Wildlife Series Summer Presentations. MVRG is active in safety trainings for people working livestock, interacting with carnivores, and operating farm machinery. Active in the CRC (Conflict Reduction Consortium), a western states group working to find solutions to pressures on working lands. Carcass Management Technical Advisory Committee member for NRCS and FSA program innovation and implementation protocols. Virtual presenter at several on-line meetings regarding conflict prevention strategies and current challenges facing ranchers and open space fragmentation.

    Expenses $56,939

  • CARCASS COMPOST SITE - The site is managed by the Bar MZ Ranch and the MVRG Project Director. There are substantial costs associated with placing carcasses in the bunkers, monitoring the carcass decomposition process and keeping the electric fenced enclosure maintained, turning the piles, and materials for mixing to make the compost. DEQ training session for proper management are currently on-line and help with maintain the site accreditation.

    Expenses $34,163

  • CARCASS REMOVAL - MVRG's carcass removal program is operated on the east side of Madison County covering over 150 square miles and currently servicing 40+ landowners (ranchers and small acreage livestock owners). It is operated by the MVRG Project Director with MVRG's dump trailer and her pickup. The carcasses once removed are brought to the carcass compost site. Removing carcasses from ranches and small acreages reduces predator and scavenger conflicts with ranchers and the general public.

    Expenses $22,776

  • WEED BIO CONTROL - The Madison County Biocontrol project continues to be one of the most successful in the state. In 2024, the crew collected and released over 68,050 specialized insects, surveyed and mapped dozens of properties and spoke with many landowners. The project also is an important partner in the statewide study of a new biocontrol for Canada thistle. In 2024, we revisited and monitored 8 sites and re-inoculated 10 sites. Developed/renewed biological control efforts with USFS, assisted in releasing Macinus janthinus, Yellow toadflax insects with Ennis personnel. Also worked with Bozeman USFS staff to survey and assess site near Quake Lake and then collected and released 22 releases of Cyphocleonus achates to combat Spotted knapweed.

    Expenses $19,293

  • CO-OPERATIVE WEED CONTROL PROJECTS - We partnered with the Madison County Weed Board on a special project in Meadow Creek watershed near McAllister. The Weed Committee helped facilitate this project by performing extensive outreach to landowners, communicating with commercial applicators, surveying, and mapping. Our crew also participated in the annual Bear Trap Spray Day, a large cooperative effort that brings together public land managers and the public.

    Expenses $19,293

  • WEED OUTREACH AND EDUCATION - In 2024, the Committee worked to bring noxious weed awareness to the community by doing the following: Developed, updated and ordered printing of new noxious weed education activity/materials to be used with groups of youth or adults. Completed noxious weed identification boards as well as biocontrol boards. These have already been used by local elementary school as part of their noxious weed science curriculum. Continued development of placemat education campaign materials. Provided monthly articles to the Madisonian newspaper via Natural Resource News and produced and distributed our scenic and educational calendar.

    Expenses $11,025

  • NOXIOUS WEED COORDINATION - The MVRG Weed Committee works closely and coordinates with professionals across the state (and often throughout the West). The Project Coordinator is the SW MT Biocontrol Representative, participates in statewide biological control steering committee meetings and the SW Area of the MT Weed Control Association's Council. We also have agreements with both the Bureau of Land Management and the MT Department of Transportation. The Committee also spends much time working with other public and private land managers to address noxious weed issues in the region.

    Expenses $5,512

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
