Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) proposes to provide funds to IDFG for the purchase of approximately 27 acres of land adjacent to the Rapid Lightning and Trout Creek Habitat Segments of the Pend Oreille River Wildlife Management Area (WMA). The subject property is located in Bonner County, Idaho, approximately 0.25 mile east of the Pack River. Acquisition of this property would add to the land base of the Pend Oreille River WMA and would protect a wetland area, and associated waterfowl habitat, on the southern portion of the property. Several non-game wildlife species would also benefit from the protection of this property.
