— The habitat value for a fish of special concern reflects biological values, 

 such as competing species, as well as physical attributes and is a judgement 



„, decision by a fisheries biologist. 



— Cutthroat trout in Standards I to VI are those listed as class A Montana

FSC = Montana fishes of special concern, see list in Attachment. Note: bull
