Musselshell County staff schedule follow-up with Bear Collins, plan to include DEQ

A staff member said the group scheduled a follow-up meeting next Friday that will include Bear Collins and the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), and asked colleagues to use the county's official meeting link so everyone joins the same session.

"That's a good question to ask everybody at this meeting," the staff member said when recommending the funding and attendance question be raised at the full meeting. Staff and administrative colleagues then confirmed which calendar invite used the county link, asked attendees to accept the correct invitation, and agreed to remove duplicate entries to avoid confusion. One participant said they would send any developer or DEQ updates by email if they arise before the meeting.

The exchange centered on logistics: which invite to accept, who had already accepted, and whether a non-county invite should be declined for that date. Staff emphasized that using the county-linked invitation will keep meeting records consistent and minimize confusion. The group also agreed to join the official county business meeting link rather than an external personal invite, and to follow up electronically if there are substantive developments before the scheduled session.
