Underlying assumptions or critical constraints
Methods
Brief schedule of activities
Biological need
Salmon juveniles enter irrigation ditches when screens are removed, inoperative, or at outflow/return points. There is a need to know the extent of the use, and if the ditches can be managed for rearing habitat.
Critical uncertainties
Summary of expected outcome
Use and quality of irrigation ditches for juvenile salmn rearing, and likelyhood of their use as year round rearing habitat.
Dependencies/opportunities for cooperation
Risks
Monitoring activity
