Reviews and recommendations

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

Recommendation:
Do not fund - inadequate proposal

Comment:

Not fundable. Inadequate proposal. This proposal is incomplete and does not include the necessary information to meet the solicitation criteria such as description of direct, on-the-ground benefits to impacted species. This is a proposal to sell wind-generated power to BPA so that they can reduce power generation by a like amount yielding benefits for the affected brood(s). This might be a good idea, but it requires more development and specification of detail to allow scientific review. Bonneville's engineering staff could estimate the potential spill benefit associated with the proposal and biologists could use these data to assess the fishery benefits that could be expected from the proposal.
