Reviews and recommendations

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

Recommendation:
N/A
Date:
Feb 1, 2001

Comment:

This proposal fails the criteria. It is a multi-year proposal that involves no science program, and defines no methods. This proposal would not rank in the top of the proposals submitted for the "Innovative" proposal solicitation to test nutrient supplementation.
Recommendation:
Not HP

Feb 1, 2001

Comment:

Value of this project depends on whether nutrient levels are limiting. Tribal support is predicated on there being sufficient hatchery returns to meet tribal member needs as well as this study's needs. This project is not directly related to the project proposed under the innovative category. This would be a process related undertaking rather than an investigative one.
