Reason for change in scope

Expanded role of Fish and Wildlife Managers and CBFWA staff's involvement with the development and completion of subbasin plans under the Program amendments and meeting public involvement needs that the region requires..

REVIEW:
CBFWA Funding Recommendation

Recommendation:
Ongoing Funding: yes; New Funding: yes

Date:
Jul 14, 2000

Comment:

The increase in CBFWA's budget is primarily due to the addition of Section 3, Objectives 1 and 2, which support subbasin planning ($1,520,177). This additional task would be based on the expanded role of Fish and Wildlife Managers and CBFWA staff's involvement with the development and completion of subbasin plans under the Program amendments and meeting public involvement needs that the region requires. The budget shows an increase in CBFWA staff by one FTE for coordination and facilitation of subbasin plans under Program amendments. In addition, one FTE has been allocated to each tribe/agency (19 FTEs) for expanded role of Fish and Wildlife Managers in development and completion of subbasin plans under Program amendments. This proposed amount should be considered a placeholder, as the specific amount needed will be determined through discussions between CBFWA and NWPPC.

Additional cost of living increases have been included. Finally, the potential of the NWPPC requesting management of the ISAB contract would leave .45 FTE of CBFWA staff unfunded which is currently allocated to the ISAB contract.
