Reviews and recommendations

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

Recommendation:
Pass (Fundable)
Date:
May 13, 1998

Comment:

Management Issue: Still appears that there is some room to improve coordination with the watershed groups and the other education project (9405900).
Recommendation:
Fund (low priority)
Date:
May 13, 1998

Comment:

Not urgent. Proposed activities would not produce significant near-term survival improvement nor risk a lost opportunity within the next 1-3 years.

Questionable management value. Proposal was either incomplete but did not provide adequate information to determine whether management criteria were met or complete but did not meet critical management criteria.


Recommendation:
Adequate
Date:
Jun 18, 1998

Comment:

This proposal should receive additional review by educational specialists. The proposal is innovative and involves significant coordination and collaboration among many key land use and resource managers. The goals are worthwhile. The proposal has a scientific focus but does not reference scientific papers and does not adequately detail the curriculum. It should include monitoring to determine how well the individuals are being educated and what they are doing with this knowledge.
