Reason for change in estimated budget
The increase is in part due to expanded need for travel/vehicles to accomplish increased tasks. The lamprey project currently has one GSA vehicle. This is inadequate to address the necessary project tasks listed above. We are in the initial stages of implementing the lamprey restoration plan for the Umatilla River which has added more monitoring and evaluation. We are working to accomplish many new objectives and tasks to evaluate the outplanting adults in the Umatilla River.
Reason for change in scope
Finalization of the Restoration plan for Pacific lampreys in the Umatilla River in 1999 identified additional necessary monitoring and evaluation tasks that were not identified when initial FY 2001 Budget projection was made in 1998. Additional tasks now proposed include; 2abc, 3abcd,

Additional tasks now proposed include; 2abc ($45,325), 3abcd ($66,372). The MainSys SRT has flagged these new tasks to insure that they have been technically reviewed. A lamprey master plan was recently completed and technical review may have been completed in that forum.
