Letter to the Buzz
Sierra on Stockwater Rights
I’ve written before about range stockwater rights.
The federal government has decided (wrongly!) that
the existence of ruminant animals is destroying the
climate, and they want to have a clear path to removing
cattle from the United States. Big city enviros resent
people living in non-urban areas, because they believe
that all non-urban areas should be playgrounds for
the wealthy, and they resent the presence of locals in
their playgrounds. Historically, stockwater rights have
proven to be one of the most powerful protections
against these two lines of attack. Montana has minimal
stockwater right protections. We have one chance to
change this in the next legislative session. If we fail, we
are facing the end of ranching in Montana. This is a
serious charge, but the evidence is everywhere.
A convincing piece of evidence is the US (the BLM)
seeking to invalidate Idaho water law. Western water law
says that using water for something productive grants
the right to continue doing so. Ranchers water their
livestock. If they stop, their livestock die. Idaho law
says watering livestock is a beneficial use and a reason
to have a water right. Idaho law says that pushing paper
and administering while someone else waters livestock
is not a beneficial use and does not grant a water right.
They have forbidden the federal government to hold any
water rights for livestock they do not actually own and
water. Historical Western water law, Congressional law,
and past US Supreme Court decisions all resoundingly
support the Idaho law. And yet the BLM is challenging
it in court. Why?
Well, money doesn’t matter to the federal
government. They can always ask China to print them
more. After all, the federal government is absolutely
unaffected if livestock drink or not, if livestock live or
die. The water right means nothing to their survival
or jobs. But if they own the livestock water right, they
have the power of life and death over the livestock and
thus over the rancher, and for that, they are willing to
go against all previous state and federal law in the hopes
of finding a sympathetic judge, who fails to read past
decisions. If you doubt this, note that the comments in
the articles about this case are overwhelmingly about
the need to eliminate ranchers.
If you are a non-federal allotment rancher, a farmer,
or a small town business person, you may be inclined
to take a deep breath and be grateful that someone else
has a target painted on them and not you. However, we
must all hang together, or we will all hang separately.
Once these forces have eliminated your neighbors, you
will be next in line, and with your neighbors no longer
supporting the schools and businesses that you rely on,
you will be that much weaker.
Before the Montana Water Use Act of 1973, the
simple act of putting water to a beneficial use secured
a vested water right. There was no need for any filings
or notifications or anything. As soon as the water was
used, you owned the right. You can see that this only
works if there are no conflicts. How can anyone know
that you have used the water and have the right, if you
don’t need to tell anyone or record it anywhere? But
pre-1973 Montana water law and Montana court cases
including a recent Montana Supreme Court case all
agree it was so… who had used the water owned the
right.
In the case of range stockwater, the rights which
are unprotected and which are critical to preserving
our rural communities, that means that everyone
who owned a herd of livestock that watered on the
range, owned a valid, vested, Montana stockwater
right. State and federal law and courts have repeatedly
emphasized that underlying land ownership didn’t
matter, especially in the case of federal land. Those
rights all existed and were protected by the state until
1973. In 1973, it was decided that all water rights must
be filed, and anyone who did not file had intentionally
abandoned their right. BUT stockwater rights were
specifically “exempted” by the legislature. The state
told ranchers either that stockwater could not be
filed or should not be filed or need not be filed and
did not mention that not filing would leave the rights
unprotected. Far too many Montanans listened to their
state employees and lost protection for their rights.
But, gee, since they were technically not abandoned
under state law, if only we had a way to know exactly
what herds of livestock were on the range in 1973, we’d
know what water rights had existed, and we’d be able
to protect them all!
Turns out that starting in 1934, under the Taylor
Grazing Act, grazing on federally managed lands was
adjudicated. The adjudication was done as correctly
and completely as these things ever are. Everyone
grazing on federally managed lands was asked to file.
They provided details about their herd size (volume,
diversion means, and purpose), the privately owned
land in their operation, their grazing system (period of
use), their customary range (source, point of diversion,
and place of use), how long they had been grazing (their
priority date). In short, the federal grazing adjudication
took into account ALL the critical elements included in
the state water adjudication. The adjudication process
involved all the legally necessary notices, filings,
objections, and hearings. The result was maps that
assigned each acre of grazing land (of any ownership)
in all the Federally Designated Grazing Districts to a
specific ranch as their customary grazing range. As a
byproduct, it also designated the exact description of
vested stockwater rights on these acres as they existed
on June 27, 1934, the day before the passage of the Taylor
Grazing Act… 39 years before the state of Montana
demanded to be provided with that information and
then wouldn’t let the ranchers give it. The BLM is able
to give us an exact accounting of an already-complete
adjudication of range stockwater rights that have been
exercised continuously from that day to this on all the
Federally Designated Grazing Districts, the very water
rights that are at the greatest risk.
All we have to do is accept the federal adjudication,
just as it exists, and incorporate it into our state water
adjudication. We need to spend no more money on
adjudication, no more time on filing, make no changes
to what has been adjudicated so far. The state merely
needs to write to the BLM and request a list of allotment
holders, allotted herd sizes, grazing periods, and official
allotment maps or tabulation sheets (allotment maps
given as legal descriptions instead of visuals), and then
declare them existing stockwater rights and part of the
adjudication. I’ve written a draft bill that would do this.
You can e-mail me at sierra@nemont.net to ask for a
copy or further information or advice.
Please help me contact elected officials and
livestock, rural area, and farming representatives and
urge them to adopt this solution. It is simple, elegant,
and easy, but will be confusing to some people. Please
prepare yourself to explain why this is so important,
how it works, and why it is the least expensive, most
complete option available.
A Senator asked me, “Who will oppose this?” The
answer is, only the enemies of ranching. This doesn’t cost
the state money. It doesn’t endanger anyone else’s water
rights. It changes nothing, but only grants protection to
what has existed for over 100 years. It will be attacked
only by people who want the power to end ranching,
but it will be attacked vigorously by them. The more
vigorous the attack, the more store that person sets by
eliminating all cattle in Montana.

Well, He Wanted to Know

After years of wondering why he didn’t look like
his younger sister or brother, a young man finally got up
the nerve to ask his mother if he was adopted.
“Yes, you were son,” his mother said as she started
to cry softly. “But it didn’t work out and they brought
you back.”
Montana Cowboy Hall Of Fame Living Induction
Jack And Andrea Billingsley
Jack Billingsley was born
November 25, 1943, in Glasgow,
Montana, to parents Jim and Dorothy
(Carlson) Billingsley. Jack became the
third generation to live in the little white
house on Antelope Creek. He attended
Tampico Grade School, where he was
taught by his mother, and graduated
from Glasgow High School in 1961. Jack
was an active participant in the Tampico
4-H Club, FFA, and the Montana High
School Rodeo Association. He attended
Northern Montana College in Havre,
Montana, where he received an AG
Business Degree and was also a member
of their college rodeo team. After
college, he worked as a brand inspector
for the state of Montana, while ranching
alongside his father, Jim.
Andrea “Andie” Burger was born
June 24, 1949. At an early age she lived
in Two Dot, Montana, and later moved
with her family to Nashua, Montana.
Her father, Fred, and mother, Leona
Burger, raised Andie and her sisters
Freda, and Jebbie, on a ranch just
outside of Nashua. Andie has been
involved in agriculture her entire life
and enjoys living the Western way of
life.
On October 3, 1969 Jack married
the love of his life, Andie. They had
two children; Scott, who later married
Suzanne Schumacher and J., who
married LeeAnne Labatte. Along with
raising a family, Andie and Jack have
had a busy life promoting the livestock
industry. Both have been involved with
the Valley County Stockgrowers and
the Montana Stockgrowers Association.
Jack served on the MSGA Brand and
Theft committee for many years, and
Andie served as the President of the
Montana Cattlewomen’s Association
in 1984 -1985. She was also the first
Montana Cattlewomen’s President
invited to sit on the MSGA board of
directors.
After Jack’s father passed away in
District 1 – Year 2023
1976, Jack and Andie along with their
boys began operating the ranch as a
cow/calf and yearling operation. Jack
was one of the first in this area to breed
Black Angus cows to Charolais bulls.
The Billingsley family is proud of their
Charolais cross calves produced each
year.
In 1980, Jack and Andie started
Billingsley Ranch Outfitters. The
business started by guiding a handful of
mule deer hunters each fall and evolved
into offering a variety of different hunts
throughout the years. Business boomed
when clients learned of the Milk River
and the Missouri River Breaks and
all they had to offer. Jack and Andie
have booked hunters from all over
the world. In sharing their love of the
outdoors, they have gathered in some
great friends along the way. Jack’s sons,
Scott and J, are both actively involved in
Billingsley Ranch Outfitters and spend
some of each Fall guiding hunters. Scott
also helps to keep the ranch going as he
is an outstanding mechanic.
As well as working day in and
day out on the ranch with Jack, Andie
established a small sheep herd in the
early 1980s. Over the years she has
expanded her herd and cherished her
closed herd for over 40 years. Andie
has always had a few milk cows on
hand. During calving season, any twin
calf would quickly be graphed on to
one of her milk cows. Three of Andie’s
granddaughters are now continuing
the milk cow tradition at the ranch.
You can find them all in the calving
barn together early in the morning or
evening during calving season.
Jack competed in the sport of calf
roping and was a member of the Rodeo
Cowboys Association (RCA), which
later became the Professional Rodeo
Cowboys Association (PRCA). While
taking care of the ranch, he managed to
compete at many of the biggest and best
rodeos across the United States and into
Canada. Andie was always supporting
him and willing to help drive those
endless miles to the next rodeo. Jack
is a current gold card member of the
PRCA and continues to support rodeo
while cheering on his son J, and J’s three
girls, Brooke, Bailey, and Blaire, on their
rodeo trail as well.
Jack has always had an incredible
eye for good horses. He has trained,
bought and sold some great ones
over the years. Baldy, Little Buck, and
Whisper were three of Jack’s well known
calf horses in which he mounted many
cowboys over the years. Jack was also
lucky enough to have great friends who
would mount him when he needed a
competitive calf horse.
Over the years, the arena and
corrals at the Billingsley Ranch have
always been open to rodeo friends near
and far. It doesn’t matter if they need
to rest, practice, tune horses, wait for
the Canadian border to open, or just
visit, they are always welcome. Jack has
willingly helped numerous kids excel in
the rodeo arena and always has a bit of
advice for anyone there.
Western heritage runs deep in
the Billingsley family. Beginning with
running livestock on the open range in
1907, watching homesteaders come and
go, experiencing the Taylor Grazing
Act, and witnessing the gathering of
wild horses. With fencing of allotments,
livestock water development, rest-
rotational grazing practices, and
monitoring of riparian areas, their
rangelands have not only nourished
their livestock, but also enhanced the
wildlife population.
Jack and Andie have shared their
love of the ranch and the Western way
of life along with the sport of rodeo with
many. They feel very blessed to have
lived in Eastern Montana where their
family roots run deep and will continue
to expand with the next generation on
the ranch.
