Water Quality | Opportunity for Public Comment | Eagle’s Grove Subdivision Project | Comment Period is from June 10, 2026, to June 24, 2026

  • June 10 2026

The Montana DEQ is accepting public comments on the Eagle’s Grove Subdivision, located near West Yellowstone in Gallatin County.  The project consists of 56 one-bedroom short-term rental cabins and three accessory buildings (storage and maintenance buildings) on a 15.43-acre parcel at 1630 Targhee Pass Highway. The site would have a new groundwater well for domestic water supply (separate from the existing well used for irrigation and fire suppression) and a new subsurface wastewater treatment system (drainfield) with advanced treatment technology. DEQ issued a Nondegradation Predetermination Approval (EQ 25-2144) for the wastewater system in 2025. The existing on-site wastewater system (EQ 03-2050) would be abandoned.

The project is located in Township 13 South, Range 4 East, Section 21 off of Targhee Pass Highway (Hwy 20)
