Short descriptionEvaluate the biological and hydrologic effectiveness of juvenile fish passage facilities constructed at tributary irrigation diversions with respect to NMFS passage criteria during low flow scenarios brought about by the power emergency declaration.
Target speciesFish species that may be negatively impacted by irrigation diversion during the power emergency with emphasis on salmonids (chinook and coho salmon; rainbow, steelhead, bull, and cutthroat trout)

Reviews and recommendations

This information was not provided on the original proposals, but was generated during the review process.

Recommendation:
Not fundable under this solicitation
Date:
Jun 21, 2001

Comment:

Not Fundable under this solicitation. The proposal does not meet the solicitation criteria. It does not offer immediate on-the-ground benefits. This project proposes to survey ~20 screening systems and report problems to appropriate agencies. Although important problems with diversion screening may be detected, the proposal does not offer specific, direct, one-time, on-the-ground benefits. It is unclear what diversions (size, location, etc.) are involved and what proportion would be surveyed if only 20 are visited.
