The story published last week regarding the Department of Natural Resource Conservation (DNRC) and Crazy Mountain Ranch (CMR) has been updated to reflect several important facts pertinent to providing a fully comprehensive and objective overview of the situation still unfolding in the Shields Valley. These updates include but are not limited to information regarding original water permitting inherited by CMR through purchase from Phillip Morris International, a new Application to Change of Appropriation Water Right submitted by CMR to the DNRC (dated May 23rd, 2025), and correspondences between the Journal and Patricia Spencer, Communications Sector Supervisor at the DNRC. Other minor semantic changes have been implemented to enhance overall clarity and depth.

All such changes are crucial for fully contextualizing the people, events, and timeline described within the article and should be considered when interpreting relevant information. Changes may be viewed on the digital version of the article, available on our website at https://www.pccjournal.com/the-water-saga-of-crazy-mountain-ranch/.
