Comment:

Technical Issue: Explain how the objectives are measurably directed toward fish and wildlife benefits.

Technical Issue: Explain how the project provides the information and education functions for a specific program that is related to a watershed approach.

Management Issue: Explain why this work is characterized as a demonstration project when there are already many good examples of restoration available everywhere.

Technical Issue: Proposal needs significant modification to clearly describe how the techniques are valid and appropriate to achieve the objectives, and the specific fish and wildlife benefit.

Comment:

This is a poorly written, disjointed proposal that ranked near the bottom of the set. It is full of misspellings. The objectives do not fit the project. The proposal does not make clear why there are a stream temperature study and a stream health study in the midst of an education proposal. No collaboration is evident with other Fish and Wildlife Program projects doing stream/watershed restoration. They do not adequately reference research and findings from Oregon State University work in Eastern Oregon. Although parts of the work are probably needed, the proposal as a whole is inadequate.
