Reviews and recommendations
This information was not provided on the original proposals, but was generated during the review process.
Recommendation:
Fund (high priority)
Date:
Jun 15, 1999
Comment:
Recommendation:
Fund (high priority). OK for a multi-year review cycle; review again in FY2003 to verify demonstrated benefits to fish and wildlife.
Comments:
This is a well-defined and needed project. This proposal is especially good because they clearly describe that habitat assessments preceded implementation of restoration actions. The linkages with other projects is quite clear. The continuation of the planning process was well explained and effective. The objectives were clearly explained, and they fit within the obvious framework of the study based on past accomplishments. The past accomplishments were well explained and potentially substantial although there was not enough monitoring of past activities to make a convincing case that they had significantly improved conditions in Trout Creek. The proposal could better describe results to date such as pool area added, changes in riparian growth. The level of budgetary detail was excellent, but the budget seems very high for the work scheduled. The abstract is too long. Overall, this is an example of a well-written habitat restoration proposal.
Recommendation:

Recommendation:
Date:
Aug 20, 1999
Comment:
Coordination improved between this project and SWCD project (98028) but more improvement needed. #6 Needs O & M, and commitments in place from landowners. #8-Ambiguous about number and location of smolt trapping. #12-No demonstration in proposal.
Recommendation:
Technically Sound? No
Date:
Aug 20, 1999
Comment:
The proposal was not well organized or consistent. Objectives listed in Section 4 "objectives and tasks" table should match the objectives listed under "objectives schedules and costs" and Section 8e.Project does not appear to be supported by a watershed assessment.
