Taken from Malta City Clerk and Treasurer Lorie Bond’s minutes. At the first Malta City Council meeting of December Malta Public Works Director Jim Truelove informed the council that the City’s 400,000 gallon water tank received two samples in a row test positive for presence of Total Coliform bacteria and this had triggered a Level 2 treatment technique assessment of the City’s water system. He said the assessment took place on December 5, 2016 and all of the well house deficiencies were corrected the day of the assessment. Public Works Direc...
I often hear that we’re losing access to our public lands. It’s the mantra of the motorized crowd who regularly lament the closing of old logging roads. Now the same crowd is raising a fuss over new restrictions concerning motorized travel on some of Montana’s rivers. I never viewed motorized restrictions as limiting my access. Quite the opposite in fact. They gave me a leg up. For much of my life I was too poor to afford even a 4WD pickup, let alone an ATV or a snowmobile. I walked or skied or...
Dear Editor, We write this letter to bring attention to what we feel are the egregious and illegal acts and policies of Malta, Montana Water District.

Malta, Mont., even though we have repeatedly informed them that the residence is question has a well and receives no water from the city s...
Good news at the Hebert household as Stella, the 7-year-old family Chihuahua, is back to 100-percent. She is eating regularly, has some pep in her step and is back to her Chihuahua temperament (i.e. I love you, leave me alone.) It was looking pretty grim last week, but we stopped listening to the vet – in fact did everything in reverse fashion from what the vet was saying – and within 48 hours, we had our old dog back. That’s the good news. The bad news comes in the form of those Oakland Raiders…yikes. Without their starting quarterback, my lon...

Admit it. You’ve already forgotten those New Year’s resolutions you made just a few weeks ago and most likely you didn’t succeed in accomplishing most of them (any of them?). But it isn’t too late to give them a second chance and it is worth doing. Serious New Year’s resolutions are never easy to bring to fruition. The key to success is to approach the changes you’d like to make in ways that will help you succeed. Start by being realistic. Expecting giant lifestyle changes to happen quickly or easily is asking for failure. Our bad habits usua...
